Pay SEVIS and WES Fees at CBN Rate

Written by Ernest EmekaPublished on October 24th, 2022

Do you know that Pay4Me often offers SEVIS and WES fee payments at the CBN rate? 

Over the years, WES and SEVIS fee payments have been challenging to many immigrants or international students travelling to North America or Canada. As a result, many applicants lost their lifetime opportunities to relocate abroad because of difficulty in making cross-border payments when due. 

Although we have had different payment methods that students use, many people complain about the processing time. Sometimes, it takes weeks to get these fees processed from Nigeria. However, pay4Me App has made it easier for people to pay their tuition, application, SEVIS, and WES fees in less than 5 minutes.

·         You are filing for reinstatement after being out of status while in the United States for more than five months.

·         You are traveling to the United States in F-1 status
