Good morning my people. Has anybody tried to do Dropbox in Naija while living outside the country?

I'm in Netherlands but want to do Dropbox and want advice from anyone who has done this ejo.

Taal17:


It's possible that your date maybe rescheduled
May 27 is memorial day. The consulate would honor US Federal holidays

Thanks for the heads up. Its weird though that the date was even made available as an interview date in the first place.

Cheers.

News Flash Guys!

Visa fee is now N294,400.00 (at the rate of N1600 to 1$) and the next available dates for Lagos dropbox applicants is in July 2024.

Just yesterday, it was N277,500.00

It is well!

Physical interview in Lagos is also July, the pressure on Lagos is more. Hopefully they can free up earlier dates

Hey guys, I tried to schedule an appointment for a non-immigrant (B1/B2) visa, then I received a notification stating, "Your request to schedule an appointment has been received and will be reviewed. You’ll receive an email once your request is approved." This seems new to me. Is this normal, and how long do they normally take to respond?

I got same yesterday when trying to schedule dropbox interview. Did you hear back from them yet?
How long did it take?

Hello, my parents' visa expires soon. Can one of them submit it at the DHL office for the other person? They were able to do this last two years. Also, this year, if they try to add each other to the appointment application, it says they don't qualify for IW, but if it's individual appointment, the site says they qualify.

Thanks in advance for your responses.

I got a message to schedule my appointment the next day.

Thanks.

I got the email after I posted this. But the problem is only July available. I wonder if I there will be earlier dates anytime soon.

Even if earlier dates are posted, i doubt that we are able to reschedule. Read something like that when I booked my appointment.

Brotha/Sis, If you need travel now, Use Cotonou, It is just 2hrs to Badagry. I think that saves you all the plenty argument on fx as it concerns traveling. I see no reason why a flight from Lagos to Uk will be 1.3m while Cotonou to Uk is 700k. If You have the monies, fly from Lagos, if you are not too boxed up, Use cotonou. As regards Fx, we are beginning to see some of the good things Emefiele did as CBN Governor, the ones we have there are still learners. They know absolutely nothing.
As of today, let me run you through the fx conversions.

Welcome to Renewed Hope Agenda

After getting to cotonou from Nigeria. Do you change your naira to pounds/dollars and use it to book or you change to franc (Cotonou currency)

Good day house, I have read through this thread right from the beginning and I must say,I have learnt alot but I like to ask our gurus in the house to please give their insight on this situation since I don't think I have come across it.
A mother who is separated from her husband, wants to take her 3 kids on a vacation. Has a good ed business with about 1.2m monthly income. The situation with her hubby is rather complicated. What are the chances of been approved knowing how important home ties are. Has a fiance now though.

wow congratulation

Visit the same website to fill out the form, but navigate to U.S. Visa Info (ustraveldocs) and select the United Kingdom as your country for specific appointment scheduling details. Additionally, on the appointment scheduling website, there’s an online platform to pay your visa fee if you’re currently in the UK.

Hey 🤠

1. That mother will have little issues if the ex husband is not in accord with her . The embassy would want to see the consent of the kids original father in order to shield them against child trafficker. All this info would be exposed in their DS 160s, so there is no excape route .

2. The kids might be likely grilled (playfully) by the VO in order to know if they still communicate with their original father as well as if the father has hand in their sojourn and especially if the woman is their original/ real mother .

3. Another aspect is the timeline . Are you taking 3 kids on vacation when they re supposed to be in school ? Their mother is not going to have an easy ride . She has to put so many things in places .

Best Wishes 🙏

OyoTunjiUSA:

4. Nigerian Immigration Service wont allow the kids to go through without a letter of consent from the biological father.
She has to un-complicate that situation as part of the non-easy ride before her

Holiday is over

Please for those who has done drop box in Lagos this year . 2024

How many days after drop box does the visa renewal or visa approval come out ?[color=#000000][/color]

Please my mum got attacked by armed robbers in the vehicle on her way back after payment of visa fees. They took all her documents including her international port. I have already filled in ds160 with the stolen port number. Please what will I do now? Does it mean the visa fee payment won’t be valid again as the port is stolen?😭😭😭😭

Na wa o ruby. I tot we agreed you calm down on this visa thing for mama. You see now

First, you need get a new port, and that is usually processed from Abuja(for lost , stolen cases)
You need
1. Affidavit
2. Police report
3. Valid id
4. fresh application for lost port.
Please an immigration officer to handle this, focus on getting a new port first, others will follow suit.
