Hello Titiladeolu, We require that you be able to show that you can fund the first year of your studies in order to be issued a visa. We do not require that any of our applicants have any sort of scholarship in order to qualify for a visa. If your school has offered you a scholarship or assistantship of any kind, we strongly recommend that you get an I20 that reflects this, as the I20 is the definitive proof of the source of funding for your education. You do not need to resubmit a new DS-160 if you have already submitted yours. Titiladeolu: 1 Like |

Dear @USMissionNGRA, Please can you advise on this? I still haven't been able to schedule an early appointment date for my F1 interview. There is no expedited appointment option available on my profile as well. I have sent several emails and no response. Thank you. graduatestudent: |

Dear USVISA rep, We did apply for a renewal via drop box for a staff of ours to make it for a training scheduled for June 2-12, 2019. However, after two months of submission, the passport was returned with an invitation for interview and we quickly scheduled June 22 for the interview. On a second thought, being that the time of the training has elapsed, as the training was concluded yesterday and a refund is being expected from the institute .Is their any need to come for the interview again and the immediate need need for it has been defeated ![]() advise us. |

Hello ikaboy, The choice is yours. If you do eventually reapply, you will be asked to reinterview, and we will likely ask why you chose not to reinterview when originally asked, but it will not result in a "ban" or an ineligibility if you choose not to come. The only thing at risk is the $160 you already paid for your application. ikaboy: |

Hello consulars, I applied for B1/B2 renewal with my family via Dropbox in March. After 7 week, my passport was returned with the instructions to schedule a follow-up interview under 221G category. Earliest available date was in September which I booked. I see now that others who submitted their application much later are getting June dates for follow up interview. Is it possible to help expedite these follow up interview appointment dates please? This will bring some measure of relief to me and many others in the same or similar situations. Many thanks for your usual help and guidance on this platform |

Hello USMissionNGRA. It's really great that questions regarding US visas can be asked like this. My mum and I submitted applications for NIVs via drop box a month apart. She submitted hers on the 8th of April 2019 and I submitted mine on the 2nd of May 2019. We haven't heard back yet, but we tracked the status of both Visas and while mine says PASSPORT RECEIVED, hers says NO STATUS. I am a little concerned about that and have emailed lagosNIV@state.gov but got a generic response. I'd appreciate some guidance on what NO STATUS means and of there is anything we can do about it. Many thanks. |

Also I added my kids name after I logged in on my caec account, i snapped and uploaded their birth certificate (5yrs and 3yr old).

Hello beholddean, You are welcome to check back and reschedule your appointment for an earlier date if one becomes available. We also occasionally hold interviews on Saturdays to cut down on the wait time for those in 221g status. However, those are the only two options we currently have available to expedite already-scheduled appointments. As a gentle reminder, we ask that applicants not make final or nonrefundable travel plans until they have their visas in their possession. beholddean: |

Dear US Mission Nigeria, I have an F1 student Visa coming up soon. I also applied for my toddler as a dependant. Should I go with the child for the interview or can I just go with his F2 Visa application documents? |

Hello @USMissionNGRA, I applied for a B1/B2 visa via dropbox on the 3rd of April. We have sent an email regarding an update on the application but there has been no response. Not even a generic response. I've also sent a request for Passport return via the email address LagosDropBoxReturn@state.gov but also have no response. I need to urgently travel next month and I need a way to get my passport back from the embassy. Please could you advise on the best way to make this happen? Thanks |
