Hello everyone,

So I came here to give some POE information.

So I travelled to Texas on Monday from Lagos through Doha.
I will suggest that you travel light and make sure you state categorically the food stuffs you are carrying along- ask around for what is allowed.

I didnt carry any food stuff because i prefer to cargo them out to US using a cargo company- easy and fast- anf i didnt want village people to get me.

Every Nigerian and some African were pulled off the line for a second inspection even when I stated I had no food stuff in my bag.

One of the officer was joking and saying Nigerians like to carry Egusi and Ogbono when coming into US.

Thankfully I got my bag fast and was able to meet with my conmecting flight to Dallas from Houston. Eventhough the bag was tagged from lagos straight to Dallas.

And yes it was a scanned second inspection.

So my advice is travel light probably with just clothes and send your food stuffs via cargo to US.

Enjoy your day guys.

Trump should have order all US embassy and national carriers not to give visa or allow pregnant women into USA instead of all this unconstitutional declaration that will attract series of criticisms and courts orders.

Except for those who have medical visa..delivery is medical.

Hello everyone,

It is good to see that this trend is still up and running.
Unfortunately from this month it will be slow due to the executive order Trump signed.

Mamas currently in US, I dont think this new law will affect you, it is those who scale through interview here in Nigeria and gets into US (if they are not returned from POE) that will have to face the hurdles of getting citizenship by birth for their babies.

In 2019, Trump was the President and most mothers who had given birth before his istration were denied Visas. I know a friend who was lucky to get visa for her second child during Biden istration after a denied visa during Trumps istration.

This new sheriff will follow his intentions to the T hence i will advice prospective mothers who want their child to have another citizenship to look at other countries for now ( for another 4 years) because it will be tough to get birth citizenship using visiting visa by non immigrant mothers.

If you currently have an interview with the Embassy, it is up to you to decide if you will like for a blue paper or faith it and see just maybe you will get a visa.
I wish you all success.

Hi, was he given 5 years or 2 years?

Two years. His date was in Jan.
Five years is to start this month-march-.

An update for everyone:

So I went to pick up my dad's port some mins ago from DHL Isolo.
His Dropbox date was 12 Jan 2023, but I waited it out well so that I could pick up with ease.

What I noticed today was some people dropped off just two weeks ago and were called for pick up today - note that a collection date will be sent to applicant.
Whilst some were within one month of date they did their Dropbox.

I was lucky to get my dad's port because it was an unscheduled collection.

Today- 2/3/23 at DHL Isolo, exactly 3pm, it was announced that there will be a line for scheduled pick up and another for unscheduled pick up.

We on the unscheduled pick up had to write name of applicants, which made the process easy.

Thank you.

You no longer qualify for drop box/ interview waiver , your visa must have expired within the last 2 years to be eligible .

You will need to a fresh interview appointment date .

Pls what about a situation that a visa expires May 2020? Will this person also go for a fresh interview appointment date?
