Hi everyone, I am looking into applying for Dropbox and was hoping someone could share a little information on the process. I have a visa interview date but it seems to have changed since March.

What is the process of applying for Dropbox for someone who has a visa interview date? And yes, I had a US visa. Thanks guys.

Hi guys, my visa appointment is for mid march. But the challenge is that I have a new travel passport.
Do you think I need to redo my DS160 before the interview date?

Thank you Ticha for the response. The link was quite informative.
But do you mind sharing
- is paper based application better than the online application. If yes, where is the submission centre?
- from your accessment how long does it to for tourist visa processing.

Good morning Iyeayo. Thanks for the information below but can you share the site and document required for Australia tourist visa?
Thanks


iyeayo:


Let me give you some advice based on my mum's tourist visa that was granted without any hassle.

If your friend is applying for a tourist visa but he is NOT planning to take his family, then I will strngly advise you to tell him to include his family picture. He needs to show that has a strong tie in Nigeria that is enough to force him to go back when his visa expires. Family especially kids are evidence of a strong tie when applying for a temp visa. My mum included documents of her properties, family picture of her and my siblings, a picture she took at her development site.

The embassy people want to be convinced that he will return.
If on the other hand he is not planning to take his family, then I dont think it is necessary.

I will also advise that he should put only one bank statement, maybve the micro finance one and leave out the GTB one (hope he is not being dodgy). The most important thing is that the account is verifiable and the money is readily accessible and it is not locked up in an investment or fixed account.

Strictly NO CREDENTIALS if he is going on a tourist visa, not even a torn piece of his CV. Even when he has been given the visa, at the border, if he is being searched and the credentials are found on him, straight back to naija o!

A friend got this response after he applied for study visa.
I would really appreciate any feedback as to what steps he needs to take since no reason was given for the refusal.

Hello sir, infilled my DS160 early 2022 with hopes that i would qualify for IW unfortunately it did not. My interview is scheduled for March 2023. As it stands, I am qualified for IW with the extension. Do you think i should cancel and go for the dropbox instead? And if yes, what's the procedure to cancel the physical interview and reschedule for dropbox?

Second, i had to apply for a new passport which means that the passport number on my ds160 would not be the same as my physical passport. Do i have to fill a new DS160?


cindermum:
My friend and I Qualified for IW (48months) and I got approval for submission 1st December, 2022. Visa Approved 22nd December and issued 28th December. My friend submitted 2nd December, approved 9th and issued 13th December, 2022.

Just thought I should share this.

Hi Guys, here is a quick question, if you don't mind.

I filled out my DS160 earlier this year and was hoping I could use dropbox before my application time expires. Anyways, it did as I was unable to get a date for the dropbox.

To my question, how do I make adjustments to my DS160 as my passport will expire before the interview date? Please note that I already have a date.

I will appreciate feedback and practical steps to follow.

R'grds,

Ashirioluwa:



You are considered a frequent traveler (by Italian embassy) if you have previously obtained visas from any of the following countries

- Any of the Schengen countries
- The UK
- The USA
- Canada
- Türkiye


I don't think Turkiye is included. I recall that I tried to add that visa as part of my travel history and it was rejected including UAE. They accepted others.

HRprof:


1. If your travel insurance cover the period you are traveling for the new date then no need but if not get a new travel insurance

2 . I don't understand what you mean by entry visa but all visit visa have their rules. US give 2 years but will be stamp in for 6 months by immigration. meaning you can not stay more than 6 months at a visit but France can give you max 3 months on your first visit either multiple or single entry. Multiple is to visit many times within 3 months of your visa duration while single entry you can only visit once and do not stay more than your visa duration.

Thanks HRprof for the response.

I hope you don't mind if I ask you two more questions?

- Do I still need to do PCR test to travel to France

- Are there other forms that I have to fill or travel with?

My flight is for the 24th.

Guy, I have 2 quick questions for you.

- Do I have to adjust my travel Insurance for my new travel date to France? The initial plan was for 2nd - 10th of this month. New date is around month's end.

- Is France visa an entry visa just like the US or I have to get to France and leave within the period of the visa?

I would appreciate a feedback from anyone with answers

Quick questions guys

Can I apply as a frequent traveller if I have never been to France or Europe (in a manner of speaking)? I have traveled to Canada, US (last travel was late 2019), Turkey (just returned), UAE, Qatar and several African countries. What's do you advise from your experience thus far?
Business / Re: CBN Sacks CEOs And Management Of Five Banks by unclepauly: 6:01pm On Aug 14, 2009
CBN has the legal backing to sack any Nigeria Bank MD that have erred. This legal backing is called the BOFIA ACT of which is part of the 1999 constitution. The MD/CEO of these bank given out loans in excess of their shareholders funds and even possible, customers depoist. When you critical look at their lending process, it has some serious comma. What I mean is there is always a limit to which you can lend to an individual or sector. Proper lending propcess was never properly followed and as such need fully collatering each facility. Take for example that of Access bank & AP.

But let the truth be said: no bank is free from these act of sabotage, its just that some are more guilty than others for now.

People we need to take into consideration(analyse) report we get to read like the one about strong, ok and failing banks which list First Bank, Diamond bank Skye Bank & GT Bank as strong bank and try no to allow the media fool us sometimes. If he read in between the lines and the action of CBN we would have known that something like this would happen sooner than later.

thanks
