Hello Everyone,
Please what's the update on migration from the old portal to the new one? The people I know in the same situation had to pay a new visa fees and get on the new portal as no one seems to have been migrated.
I paid for visa application via GTbank on the 23rd of February 2024 but encountered a setback with was eventually rectified by the help desk. I wasn't able to choose a preferred date before the migration.
Is there any hope of migration, or I should just pay a new visa fees and hoop on the queue.
I'd appreciate all the help I can get.

Same boat, I was migrated since September, and till now I can't book an appointment I've raised 5 tickets on this, I can't even cancel pending application request and/or create new

00uwa:

Oh okay, na to continue dey check while waiting for the emergency request approval.

Please have you gotten approval for the emergency request?

deees:

I got approval within 3 hours. I included that I had paid my SEVIS fee in the information I gave, I don't know if it was what helped but I know coming across the fact that on the old platform, you had to pay SEVIS fee before an expedited appointment can be given. So I will advise anyone just paying for visa fee to pay SEVIS fee immediately too.

Please what's the duration between date of emergency application and your date of travel...I dint know why mine is still pending

I did mine on monday...

How i know it's pending, if i try to create a new emergency appointment, it says i cant create another since it's still pending.

Evilsnipper:


How did you know this is pending?, I submitted an emergency request but I didn’t see anywhere on the interface to track the progress. now I am not even sure if it went through, how did you know when you did yours?

The december, january, february slots were saying used, so i had to just pick April, hoping to apply for emergency.

zinachidi:
which date did you select normally?

Yes to your question.

Mitan7:
@everyone
please for those that went to the First Bank branch physically to pay their Visa fees, was your receipt like this?
Cause someone is telling me the delay I am having is because I paid online which I choose not to believe.

I can't really say, i applied since mornday still pending

zinachidi:
not yet, I wanna ask, my school is resuming 13 January, am I guaranteed to get an emergency appointment if I apply? Do you know?

Have you applied for the emergency appointment?

zinachidi:
January oo, maybe I should have put this November.

It seems no more December dates for Abuja

Please how long does it take to get response for emergency appointment application on this new portal

Thanks

Gd0007:
Wait for 24hrs and recheck your pending appointment.

Gd0007:
First, that the Amentum reference number on the payment receipt in your email matches the one you entered during the payment process. If you made the payment online or through a bank deposit, ensure the reference number is correct. For online payments, you should have received a confirmation email double-check that the reference numbers match. Also, enter the date the payment was made. If it was an online transaction, you can check your bank statement for the reference number as well.

Good day, after making payment and inputting amentum number, it says 'updated successfully' but no where to pick appointment date, any assistance?

deees:

Yes but you have to get a regular date first and you can then ask for an expedited appointment.

Okay, thanks

deees:

Take any available date, then apply for expedited appointment. Make sure you have paid your SEVIS fee. Write the date of resumption on the information part of the request, the course and the school. Write your SEVIS number and the fact that you have paid the SEVIS fee, then make sure you your i20 document. You will get dates in November. It's possible you get October dates too.

Please has the new AVITS portal made provision for expedited appointment?

VincentTobe:
Good evening people of GOD, this is the AVITS portal of a recently denied applicant. The page is saying "Choose a Post" and the applicant doesn't know what post is referring to.

PLEASE CAN SOMEONE HELP

Options are supposed to pop up for you to select from

Hello guys,

Please I really need your opinion on this; I was at the stage of scheduling appointment on the old portal; my was successfully created on the new portal and it shows 'pending application request' on the dashboard, but nothing much happens when I click on it, even after raising two tickets..

Now, I used another email add to open a new , is it advisable to go ahead with another application and pay another MVR fee, cos I need the date for December.

Any suggestions is fine

Please how did you resolve it?

Ajalalomo:


Thank you, I was able to resolve the AVIST issue earlier this morning but I still have issues with my visa application.

I paid the visa fee in April, 2024 through Guaranty Trust Bank, but the AVIST only recognizes payment through First Bank.

harleybee:



Hi,
Same issue with me for my dad
I raised a ticket to write about the issue from the new profile. I then had a chat with one of their ?agent/staff also from the new website a day later. I was told it would be resolved later that day which was now 48hrs after a I raised the ticket. I checked today and saw they had resolved it but told me to wait for another 48hrs to get an email about my new profile.
You do not need to pay another fee. I was told my previous fee is still valid and should be able to proceed with appointment booking after 48hrs. This is likely going to be till Monday then.

So you should raise a ticket and let them know your issue.
Hope this helps

Please have you been able to schedule an appointment
