Hey house Please I really would like to know the contents of an I-20. I intend using a different SOA to obtain I-20 from the school but would be going for interview with another SOA. I really wanna find out if I-20 wouldn't carry the account holder's details. Thanks in advance for the swift response. |

Good evening all, please I need help. I applied to university of Texas in Tyler for a masters in public health. I am a nurse. Unknown to me, they need TOEFL and I have already made payments. Please can I get schools that do not need an English proficiency and is international friendly.Secondly I am thinking of using an agent this time. Can someone please recommend a good agent that resides in Lagos. Thank you. |

Walspring: Yes that is Eze toy what they did, they actually evaluated my transcript.. but the truth is I truly love that course and would like to study it. But don’t know if it going to be a red flag to the visa officer, as they might be thinking I have a degree before. |

Shedonnaoz: 1. Most schools require proof of English proficiency for graduate degree and it's in your best interest to cover that part. Is it too late to correct that, as in admission window? You have already made payments for what? You can get a conditional admission, while you go ahead with TOEFL and you'll be fine. You could be asked if you took any tests during your visa interview and seen as an unserious student or unfit to succeed in Grad school. 2. Stay away from agents. While there are a few good ones who get it right in the end, there's nothing an agent is gonna do for you that you can't do for yourself (except add documents/stories to your application that could put you in trouble - again, you can still do this yourself). My advice would be: get TOEFL sorted. You'll be glad you did. 4 Likes |

UzzyBreeze: The i20 is going to have the name of your sponsor and the amount required (tuition and expenses). While going with a different SOA for the interview is not the end of the world (you may get lucky and not get asked who's sponsoring or be required to show any SOA), it's better to avoid such situations that can really mess up your chance. Is it a risk you're willing to take? You really don't want those problems, better to avoid them and not complicate matters. Remember the burden is on an applicant to prove to a VO that everything's clean, no shady deals or ulterior motives. May I ask why you don't wanna use the same SOA you're taking to your interview to secure your admission? I hope this helps. |

barryken: 365 been if you did Sevis on May 1st 2018 it will expire April 31st 2019 . ......so calculate it like that. Check when you paid , subtract one day and change the year to d date . That the expiry date when your next interview must take place before or you pay again 1 Like |
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 13 by UzzyBreeze: 8:55pm On Apr 19, 2018 |
theamerican: Yeah Thanks very much for this. I'm expecting SOA (which bears same surname with me) but the one I have currently doesn't have same surname. So I intend using the one I have to obtain I-20 then I'd use the one in my surname for the interview. I'm just trying to ensure there are no discrepancies and then wanna get the I-20 on time too. |

UzzyBreeze: I'd say if possible, wait until you get the "interview SOA" before you try to obtain the i-20. Imagine your interview going really well then the VO asks "who's sponsoring you?". Due to your situation, you may get anxious thinking "Oh God, I hope I don't screw this up", your whole demeanor could change and you become uncomfortable (like shaky voice, speaking at a different pace than you had been speaking all along, etc.) which a trained VO would notice and that could be the point that opens a bigger can of worms. I repeat, you don't want those problems. Long story short: if it's avoidable, avoid it at all costs. Unless you have no other options. |

Guys, I need your input. Has anyone received a package via Fedex that has its tracking status stuck on "label created". I just checked my Fedex tracking status for my H1B documents and its showing label created since it was posted. It was an overnight priority shipment. I have contacted Fedex and they don't have an update on if the package was actually delivered. |
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 13 by LagosismyHome(f): 5:20am On Apr 20, 2018 |
Chimneybrain: That very odd for FedEx to say they don't have an update . If they don't know who else will know .nobody I had a package with label created before and was told it just means the sender has sent info to the shipper that a package is to be shipped (with online account now. Any sender can go online and create the label to ship ) but it has not been physically dropped at FedEx.... the minute it dropped , it scanned at fedex and then you start seeing the tracking /movement of the package. In my case, the label was created for like 2 days until it was dropped at FedEx and I started seeing the movement details . Yours might be different but that was my experience 1 Like |

Good morning everyone, I migrated from Canadian student visa thread on here after denial and ever since I have been a silent follower. I had my interview today at Lagos embassy for 6:30 but unfortunately i was delayed. Here goes my transcript below for your input because i plan to re-apply soon. Me: Good morning Vo: no reply (passport and I20) Vo: Where will you be going in the USA Me: Lincoln university at Oakland in California Vo: Where will you be staying Me: Lincoln offered me a list of hostels so I could choose my preference once I get the visa Vo: I meant what will you be studying (don’t know how I didn’t hear her) Me: Oh, sorry. I will be studying International business Vo: What’s your highest form of certification Me: Bsc Vo: What course? Me: Accounting Vo: So why the change to international business Me: it’s not really a change, there’s no business without accounting and no accounting without business. I’m presently employed by my mums company that deals with import and export of fabrics and home decoration. So this course will enable me become certified professionally when it’s time to relieve her off her duties Vo: keeps typing for long, how many schools did u apply to? Me: Just one Vo: Why? Me: When I spoke to my cousin and best friend about my plans of going for masters, they referred Lincoln to me with great testimonials. However I realised that Lincoln offers me all the courses needed for the program which aligns well with my career goals so I narrowed my search to Lincoln only Vo: Did you apply to any other school outside the USA! Me: No Vo: I mean outside the USA (looking to confirm from her system) Me: Oh, yes. (Thinking maybe she saw something about Canada or so) I guess I fell for psychology here Vo: What country/ school Me: Canada/Seneca college. Before I could say it was 2017 Vo: cuts in...Have you travelled outside Nigeria before? Me:Yes Vo: To? Me: Uk Vo: Are you married? Me: No Vo: Engaged? Me: No Vo: who is sponsoring your education? Me: My mum Vo: Naso she just dey talk gibberish...I’m sorry you do not meet the requirements blabla (handed me blue paper). I had my hands in my mouth.. I was confident but I don’t know what went wrong, I was the first to be interviewed by a black non smiling big woman � |
