No train to Chicago except you using bus, greyhound. You will need to book online on time to make it cheaper. You also have to consider taxi fare in JFK to greyhound station too. It all depends on how much difference is the flight fare.

He could take the airtrain in JFK to port of Authority Bus terminal serving greyhound for $7

VISA APPROVED on the 26th July, 7:15am at Lagos Embassy

My transcript goes thus:
Vo: Good morning ma'am,how are you?
Me:I'm fine, good morning.
Vo: pass me your passport.....oh!I see you are a student, give me your F-I20.
Vo: so why did you choose morgan state university?
me: I choose MSU because they offer masters in public health with a concentration in Environmental health which will help me implement programs that will improve and promote healthy style living among people of my community here in Nigeria, which is in line with my future career as a community health worker and also i will be joining Dr ABC's research which is aimed at reduction and prevention of HIV/AIDs, sexually transmitted diseases, substance use and alcohol abuse among emerging adults between the ages 18-27.
VO: what university did you do your undergraduate?
Me: Unilorin here in Nigeria.
VO: what year did you graduate?
Me: 2010
VO: what have you being doing after your NYSC?
Me: I was retained at my ppa as a community health worker at YZ foundation which is an NGO after which I took up a job in 2015 as a lab assistant with ABC specialist hospital, we collect samples from patients, document these samples, analyse it,grow it on a culture media (well i just described my duties here)

VO: smiling .....you'll be needing this at the POE.......I no hear the rest again then he passed the white sheet and my F-I20 to me
ME: I put my hands on the slab, face down and I was laughing.... I took my papers and left.


For me I would say it was just God's favour, I told God I wanted a smiling VO and just 2 minutes interview with very few questions and a white sheet at the end...............and it was so.
I couldn't help but notice a lady who was talking so loud with all energy "saying I will cure polio,I will cure this and that" fear begin dey catch me say if she could speak like this and ended up with a blue sheet, wetin I want talk again but I was calm and very optimistic.
MY ADVICE
you don't need to shout to convince the VO, shouting makes one sound like a desperado.
Maintain eye contact..... although in my case i was looking at him but i no even see am.....cos i was looking behind him and focusing on what he was asking me.
once again I say thanks to Textrem, walspring and Akins2016..............you guys are wonderful. And to all the guys and ladies keeping this thread alive and active...........you guys are doing a great job......well done and God bless.

Can't help laughing on that one

I'm sure you have seen that more than half of the transcripts mentioned God's help and grace.

So don't use Him and dump Him o. Helping you with Visa is just one. There are other helps He can give you in the future.

All the best when your time comes.

Please I would like to know if I need any other documents apart from the ones I listed above

I think it's because it has chicken which is poultry. But don't worry, there is always Ramen and many other better food. So soon you will forget about Indomie/Ramen.
