Hello Guyz. Please I need your advice and inputs. My Visa interview is coming up 1.Is it enough to have a closing balance of just 7M on your SOA if your deficit is 6M. 2. Is it advisable to inform the VO that your advisor has promised a TA/RA position when you resume even when you don't have a letter of confirmation regarding the stipends. I have full tuition waiver but the school promised to give me a TA/RA position only after resumption as it's on a rolling basis but I have a personal SOA covering the deficit. |

Predstan: I can't get past the previous work experience section. It keeps saying connection failed. I've tried it on other devices. After filling out the information, I click on next, it says connection failed. This particular section kept me up all night, still no headway. Please help. |

Hello everyone. I'm applying for F1 and F2 Visa for myself and my child 1. I'm currently using my maiden name although I'm married. While my child has the father's surname. Will it be an issue that my surname is different from my child's? 2. Can I do a change of name now and take the document along to the embassy? I used my maiden name on my DS-160 and I-20 Pls note I have my marriage certificate and my child's birth certificate showing my maiden name. |

Good day house. I've been following this thread and it has been of help in enlightening me of what to expect when I go for visa interview. In this light, I'd love the experts here to lend their advise on this path I'm about to tow. I'm applying for an M-1 (vocational) visa to Broward Technical College Florida for an associate degree in welding technology. The college doesn't require English tests exams as stated on it's website because Nigeria is an English speaking country. My questions is; can a loan be used as a proof of funds at the visa interview? What am I to expect considering the fact that most student visa applications are F-1 as M-1 visas aren't mostly sought after? |

Hello Nairaland. The denial rate is too enormous in this month of November, I want to believe there is something fishing. |

Acceptjesus: I totally agree with you. It's been denial back and forth on nairaland. Or is it because it's spring? |

Johnile123: The VOs are not interested in the promise you were made until you have actual evidence of the TA/RA. Someone was denied earlier this year for mentioning that he was promised. About the deficit, if you're sponsoring yourself, you need to have at least two times your deficit to cover your deficit for the duration of the program because there is an assumption that if you don't secure employment on campus and you only have the first year's deficit, you might fall out of status cause you can't work outside school. And if someone is sponsoring you, it depends on the inflow in the account but I think 7m is too low. What I would advice is that you can go with your 7m personal account and look for additional sponsor. So you can say that you have personal savings of 7m and that your "..." would be supporting you too, you need the person's statements of account too. All the best. |

To everyone who has been denied and has some sort of funding with not so much deficit, if you have been denied once, you can try to reapply. And to everyone who has been trying to reapply but haven't seen a good date, just keep checking, there would be a day the embassy would open dates, some might even be days away, and the fastest people who picks it would be the lucky ones, they do that everytime, so keep checking, day and night. Don't visit too frequent though, so the system doesn't ban you for 3days. You can visit the date page 5 times a day, you might want to space out the 5 times all through the day. Spring 2020, yes you can All the best. 2 Likes |

Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by Godiswonderful: 4:37pm On Dec 04, 2019 |
Wow it’s not possible to go for your interview once the start of program commences ..you just have to try and keep checking for earlier dates probably late at night and reschedule... I’m sure this is Lagos. Ekunsgreat: |
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by Ekunsgreat: 5:00pm On Dec 04, 2019 |
Godiswonderful:yes it’s ..I should keep checking the site and also what you mean by I should reschedule it but I hope I will get a good date better than that? |
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by Godiswonderful: 5:20pm On Dec 04, 2019 |
You can’t always check often at least 3 times a day so they don’t block you for 3 days ...check mostly at night ...but if you see you can’t get any suitable date in Lagos probably Abuja you might see an earlier date ...Lagos is really populated Concerning rescheduling when you open your cgi profile the home page you would see reschedule appointment Ekunsgreat: |
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by Ekunsgreat: 5:43pm On Dec 04, 2019 |
Godiswonderful:thanks sir but if I reschedule my appointment to Abuja Is it the same visa receipt I would used ? And also is it possible for me to email them and explain to them about my date ?? |

I did a PhD interview on 22nd of November, with high hope, I believed i was going to be selected because i have sent my CV and summary of my master's thesis to the group leader. After my PhD interview he told me he knew my supervisor and even told me to extend greetings to him he then continue by saying "i was the best applicant so far" so he told me to send my full master thesis to him and he will in return send me article related to the PhD programme i applied for.. I did and he sent me some article. Its been almost 2weeks now and i have not heard from him. Does this mean he deceived me and reject me? Why will you send article to student you won't pick for a phd? I am really confuse here. |
