Hi Esther, why is a LinkedIn account preferable? I have a well-optimized account on Instagram with proof of work than LinkedIn. What is your advice ma?
If that’s the case, you can use it
It’s just preferable cause LinkedIn is a professional platform and you should have your updated work and volunteer experience on there
If you’re using your IG account, ensure you don’t have any post that may serve as a red flag 🚩 to your interview on there
Sorry, I don’t understand your question
What if i have a middle name(another surname) 😊
There are options for you to put that
Happy birthday, thank you for the video, u gained a subscriber

Very educative and informative thanks so much Esther!! ❤

Hi if you're not working but a student who has gained admission for the fall semester in August for a masters degree, and you will be completing your degree course in may. When filling the forms can you fill the education, work and training part with student and describe your duties as a student? Will be waiting for a feedback thanks
You should only fill the work part with information related to your work or volunteer experience because this is what you will be able to defend without creating red flags 🚩 for yourself during your interview when asked a related question
Very informative, and thank u for advices❤
You’re welcome.
I’m glad you found the video helpful

need support for 1 question i have already filled DS 160 form and submitted but i found some major mistakes in submitted DS 160 form. I created new application after retrieve old but my concern is this which confirmation form display in front of Visa Officer. and how i can delete old ds 160 form?
The information of the form which number you filled on your visa interview schedule will be displayed before the VO
You don’t need to delete your old form however you should as soon as possible before 72-48 hours update your visa interview appointment with the new DS 160 form number
@@ESTHEROOYEDELE i already changed confimation number in interview schedule with new DS 160 confirmation
You should be fine
Not sure you can delete the old form, you may check online. But the new form of updated in advance of your interview is what the VO will see
Can I request next video step by step for visa payment and step by step for schedule of interview thank you🇯🇵😉
I will try that 😀Thanks for the request

Hey...can you tell me that at any point or at last after uploading a picture it will not be submitted directly like I don't want to submit it right at the moment so I'm curious about that, if I fill it it should not be sent.
Thankyou so much mam it helped a lot 😊

Thank you so much for the detailed video. Please, if you have multiple sponsors e.g self and loan what is the appropriate option to select?
Hello, is bi b2 same as visiting visa
Visitor visas are nonimmigrant visas for persons who want to enter the United States temporarily for business (B-1 visa), for tourism (B-2 visa), or for a combination of both purposes (B-1/B-2 visa).
Can you retrieve your application after been submitted?
No
You can create a new one and update the application number on your interview appointment at least 72hrs (working hours) before your interview
Thank you for a well detailed video. Pls when filling the social media presence, is it advisable to list all the social media account ?
Thanks very much Esther ❤
You are welcome
Hello, it doesn’t allow me to continue to the next page because i keep getting the name of my mother mother’s name wrong. How do fix it please?!i think I forgot the name i entered 😭
Sorry to hear that
You can start a new application
@@ESTHEROOYEDELEthank you so much 🙏🏾does that mean my appointment will also change ?!
No, your interview appointment remains, you’ll just need to update your new application number on the appointment
@@ESTHEROOYEDELE thank you so much🙏🏾
You are welcome
Why not expatiate on the photo part 😳
What do you want to know more about that?
Apparently when I went through out the application it was an exercise but by God grace I succeeded.
Congratulations 🎉🎊🍾
Very good tutorial. Thank you
Thank you 😊
What if my passport actually got stolen before. Does this affect negatively to my visa approval?😢
Not necessarily. My passport got lost/stolen 2022, and i still got my visa for the year 2023. So i wouldn't think so
No, that shouldn’t affect the decision of your visa interview
@@ESTHEROOYEDELE thank you, my visa got approved today! TYSM for your help!

So does it mean you have to know where you will have your Visa interview first before filling your ds 160 form. I am asking this question because of the difficulties in having an interview date in both Lagos and Abuja? OR Is it possible to choose Abuja location to schedule your interview but later go to Lagos if Abuja location does not have a date for your interview but then your ds 160 location is Abuja? PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS QUESTION@@ESTHEROOYEDELE
Yes, you’ll need to know where you’ll be attending an interview to choose the location on the form. You can submit the form at least 72-48hrs before your interview which gives you room to change the location before submitting if you need to switch from Lagos to Abuja or vice versa
Please, If you have appointments at the us since 2020 and it was rescheduled to 2023, it's the same ds 160 form you will fill or new ds 160 form
God bless you…Thanks a lot
You are welcome
Thank you So much❤
You’re welcome

Hello! I'm an international student in Dublin, Ireland, supporting myself while studying. I'm filling out a form that has a section titled "Present Work / Education / Training." I'm unsure whether to focus on discussing my college education or my part-time job in this section. They also ask to briefly describe my duties and monthly income. Additionally, if I mention my current employment here, I won't have another place to include it. What would be the best approach here? Thanks for your advice!
