Hello.
For those that have submitted via Dropbox. How long did it take to get ur port back?
On the appointment page, it says processing takes 2 months and you can’t request for your port back during that period.

Hello, please I am flying out of Abuja Nigeria with Lufthansa on Saturday, transiting through FRA to Dallas, US. I’m Nigerian flying with a Nigerian port and was fully vaccinated last year against Covid -19. Do I still need a negative covid test to fly or would my certificate of vaccination suffice?

Did u get the mail?

So since the recent update with the interview waiver.
I qualified for it but i just paid for my visa fee few days ago.
Is it advisable to still go ahead with the submission given the clause of only working with those before MAY 1.

Also when filling the ds160, what should i do if i dont have any in the usa to fill in the application before.
The company i was with that was located there which took me there is the first time which was a network marketing company, I am no longer part of them or should i say just remained dormant in it and moved on to other things.

Since i dont have anyone there to put as as am to provide one with adddress and phone number.

What do you advise, Should i skip that part or what.

Will appreciate the response.

Thanks

Since you've paid. Go ahead and submit. It's better to be on the queue than just wait.

If you don't have any then what is your purpose of visit?

The can be any individual in the US who knows you or the name of the company you plan to visit during your trip.

Good day people.
An agent got me an interview date.
Now I noticed that my name on CGI is
Surname and First name only.

But on my ds160 form and port, I have three names: Surname, First name and middle name.

It's stated on the page that one should put the the first and middle names inside the first name field. Kindly see attached.

I asked him to change as I couldn't do so on my end.

He says it's not a challenge. That I shouldn't worry.

But I'm concerned. Kindly advise please.

Thank you.

It’s not an issue

Did u get the mail?

Hi, I got the mail this afternoon and saw a date in April but the appointment confirmation looks more like an interview appointment. The appointment detail has the address of the consulate which is quite different from IW confirmation that I know.

Enishit:


Send me an email via the nairaland mail

I dont know how to send mail on nairaland, kindly put me through. Thank you

HRprof:
Any update for those with canceled appointments date at Abuja embassy ?
Any transfer applicant from Abuja to Lagos?
I’m asking because I don’t see Abuja embassy reopening till after election, my interview is before election @ Abuja embassy and I’m not ready to forfeit my visa fee after waiting for over 1 year

For others who might not understand this is how it looks like but the appointment confirmation page must be presented at the Dhl drop off center which is either Ikeja or Isolo . No other place is allowed in lagos

Hello ,I’ve got a date for June 2024 ,is it possible I reschedule for earlier date?

Thanks

I couldn't pick a date for the dropbox too because it looks more like physical interview

Certificate of vaccination is all you need both here and on your way back home
