Quick one for the UNDERGRADUATE Aspirants:

Before you Shoot for Undergraduate, know these:

Sincerely, Undergraduate hardly have adequate ‘assistantship’ avail for them from the schools.

Unless the school is d to adequate ‘Rich’ NGOs that do sponsor ‘good profile’ students in the particular school.

You know, UG mostly get scholarship as form of assistantships while Graduate get Funding and co.
So, limited options for them.

The VOs know about it, reason they hardly get ‘harsh’ using form of assistantship to judge their visa approval decision.

All they really want to know about UG applicants is that:

- ARE YOU GOING AT THE RIGHT AGE? (16 - 22)

- ARE YOU GOING FOR A CONVINCING COURSE OF STUDY? (Something like dual- degree is advisable) not course you can easily earn a degree in 9ja or somewhere ‘near’.

- WHO DEY FOR YOU? Sponsor. Ofc, your parents should be your primary sponsor in this case.

THEN GRACE. �

If as a student you applied for visa and attended interview with your pregnant wife and after you were given the visa before you travel date, your wife gives birth, is there any change expected to be made or not? If yes, what are the changes?

Congratulations.
Yes, the newborn will need a US visa to be able to travel. So that means one parent will have to stay back and process all necessary things for the baby's visa.

Best of luck

You would have to create your on cgi portal ( https://cgifederal.secure.force.com/scheduleappointment?sfdcIFrameOrigin=null )

After, you make payment via GTBANK or on GTBank mobile app (N67,200).
You need; your port deets to fill the payment form.

After the payment, you go back to your cgi portal to update your payment transaction receipt.

After the update, you would be seeing the available visa interview dates.

PS: While creating the portal your might see an error message of not being able to create. Send the below email to their system:


Email: [email protected]

Subject: Please help me create cgifederal from your end.

Body: Good day,

Please I’m unable to create an , i have been getting an error
message. I would be happy if you can help me create cgifederal so i
can schedule an appointment.. i have attached the error message to this
email..
Thanks!.


Goodluck boss!

Firstly, What’s the issue with your port??

Magma012:

Can you explain further the privacy/internet connectivity

You'll need a really strong internet source or the tests will cut out in the process of taking it. Your test area will have to be perfectly quiet and private or they won't approve the test either. I had to retake my test twice because of connectivity issues myself.

Please be aware that you can only retake the test a limited amount of times before you have to pay again for a fresh one. In my case I got two free retries.

I lost my port but I have applied for another one which I don’t think will be out before February 22

Oh! Sorry to hear that.

Now, cancel your appointment. And reschedule to another time. Nothing biggie!

If you think you would get the port before then don’t cancel. Otherwise, cancel now, and start looking for another date around when you think the port would be available. To avoid paying another visa fee. Don’t forget you can only cancel / reschedule once.

Shalom!

Hello folks! I trust we are all doing well. I have a question about the U.S interview (In the aspect of ties to home country).

In a situation where my dad is currently in the States on a business visa, and I am applying for an F-1 visa. Is it okay to say I have a family there?

Hello

Can I pay the VISA fees while I wait for my i-20? Will I be able to schedule an appointment if this is the case?

Yea. You can! So far you already have it.

- You setup your cgi portal
- Pay visa fee
- Update your cgi portal with the visa fee receipt
- Then you start seeing dates.

During the filling up of your CGI page, you would come across where to input your i20 and Sevis deets, just find something like the required character and fill up, when you receive your i20 and SEVIS details you update your profile.

Don’t forget all ‘that’ are NOT CRIME or OFFENSE. So, no penalty, it is just way of ‘beating’ getting earlier appointment date.


Goodluck!

Please, explain in details. I mean, find a story to tell and how it’s changed.

E.g Like, talk about how your course of attendance was high then, and how it’s ‘low’ now; and easily can be pay by your sponsor.

or

How the VO see that you don’t have home ties before now you’ve propose to your long time Lover and you’re to marry after your study.

Come up with something and end it well.

PS: Everyone that got denied before were given the SAME form (home ties). So, going to be too basic filling just that form section for the denial reason.

Las Las, all na GRACE but still let’s walk towards our own Grace path.


Goodluck Champ!
