Hi everyone, so my fiance and are in the process of gathering everything we need for the K1 interview. Our I129-F was approved September the 12th 2023. We just want to gather all the the documents we need, while it's getting to the NVC, and then to the Embassy. Here's the situation: My fiance is from Ghana, but stayed in Cuba for about 5 years to study medicine. He reached out to the embassy of Cuba in Ghana. To get a police clearance for the time he was in Cuba, they responded back to him via email stating that the process is delayed up to 6 months and it's not guaranteed that it'll be ready before that time, due to the channel for obtaining documents are not working. Does anyone know how we go about this situation If the interview comes sooner than the police clearance? He still reaching out two different ones to try to get in touch with someone who can of possible help. I have attached the email from the embassy below. Thank you for any response in advance.

Hello family. I'm still trying to wrap my mind around this P3 issue. So, after much, much, and much more waiting for no P3, I followed the advice I was given here and proceeded to submit the DS 160 and schedule interview. I still didn't get any P3. By God's grace, we finally got an interview date after literally stalking the website for weeks! I got the interview letter (packet 4), but still no P3. I know the content of the P3 already, but is that a mandatory thing to have been received...? I would hate for it to be a show stopper on the interview date. Did that happen to anybody else? Any thoughts is appreciated!

Hello Alexandria, I hope your interview went well. I'm in the same boat right now. I followed the same step as you did and I'm worried that it might backfire. I scheduled my interview for next month and I have not received packet 3 yet. Let me just say I followed the same step as yours. Did it workout that way for you or you had to wait for the embassy to write you first? V/R

So, I got a RFE in the mail? My husband is in the process of bringing his mom to the states. The RFE stated that my husbands birth certificate was registered 23 years after he was born. The reason for this is Ghana has changed their system and he didn't have his old birth certificate so he had to get a new one. But , the RFE stated we can also get a voluntary DNA test in addition to the primary support we will send as reason why he has this birth certificate. My actual question is; Is it worth it to get a DNA Test done?

Good day VJ family! Please, I need your help and expertise for my brother. He is an F1 (unmarried child over 21) and we just got the email from the embassy to schedule his appointment in Ghana. We had scheduled his appointment back in October - the application was originally for multiple siblings all IR2 so we included him his as well. At the interview, he was told to wait for his visa to become current. He did the medical examination and police report back in October for the appointment we scheduled back then. Since it's less than 6 months, does he have to do another medical exam and police certificate? I am thinking we can reuse them. He has the police certificate with him, but would the embassy know to look for a medical exam from November? Any thoughts are appreciated!

My wife had her citizenship interview today and will hopefully have her oath ceremony in the near future. We have started thinking about filing petitions for her family members and I was wondering if anyone in here could share their experience with documenting traditional marriages and divorces? On the State Department's Reciprocity Schedule for Ghana it says that you can use a "Customary marriage certificate," but it says that "[t]he application for the registration of the marriage must be made within three months of the marriage ceremony." My parents-in-law were traditionally married in the 80's, so it would seem to be too late to register. Is their only option to also get married civilly? This is what it the State Department's Reciprocity Schedule for Ghana says "Persons married under customary law who subsequently wish to marry under civil or ordinance law must obtain a civil marriage certificate which reflects the words "married under customary law" in the space provided for "condition."" So have them do a civil marriage? My wife's sister's situation is even more complicated, she is divorced from a traditional marriage. The State Department's Reciprocity Schedule for Ghana says "Documentation of the dissolution of a customary marriage is a decree, issued by a High Court, District Court, or Circuit Court along with a statutory declaration by the couples’ families, stating that the marriage in question was dissolved in accordance with customary law. You may find a record of the dissolution of a customary marriage on the reverse of the customary marriage certificate." How can this be recorded on the reverse of the customary marriage certificate if there is no certificate. In addition, what if the other ex-husband's family isn't willing to cooperate? I feel like there are a lot of headaches in the future. Someone please tell me this isn't as daunting as it seems! I'd appreciate hearing any personal experiences. Thanks!

Hi, Our son was born this past week and we are looking into what it would take to get him a Ghanaian passport. My understanding is that he is already a Ghanaian citizen by virtue of having a Ghanaian mother (I’m a U.S. citizen). However, it looks like we are going to need to register him as a dual citizen to get him a Ghanaian passport. It looks like we send in a copy of my wife’s passport, $250 and a return envelope to get the application. Has anyone gone through this process?

K-1 visa was filled for my partner in Liberia in Feb 2020. We continue to get emails from NVC about extensions due to COVID-19. Trying to see how can speed anything up. -Has anyone received a K-1 visa from Liberia who filled after Feb 2020? -Has anyone received a K-1 visa from Ghana or Sierra Leon who filled after Feb 2020? -Does anyone know if we could transfer our case from Liberia to Sierra Leon or Ghana ? -
Hello family. Please, I need your expertise based on your experiences. NVC sent our K1 case to Ghana November 4th, 2021. The status says "Ready. Your case is ready to be scheduled for interview..." Up till today, I haven't received any communication or whatsoever from the embassy. I've been checking some members K1 timeline and it looks like everyone's been getting confirmation in about 1-weeks. Am I missing something...? I always check my email, junk/spam and I haven't received anything from the embassy. My NVC emails and mail always came through. Is there another way to check if I've missed my P3..? As always, the embassy won't answer phone calls or give a proper answer to my inquiry. Any thoughts is appreciated.

Hi everyone. I recently left Ukraine through Romania and I'm back in my home country (Nigeria). Unfortunately, due to Russian invasion, our Cr1 case was moved from Kyiv to Frankfurt, Germany. Our case is currently complete and waiting to receive a response concerning interview from the US Embassy in Frankfurt. • Getting a Visa to Germany from Nigeria is currently difficult as there are no available dates for interview. • Transferring the case to Nigeria is not a good choice as there aren't available dates until 2024 • I'm enquiring if it is possible I transfer the case to Ghana where I can travel to Visa-free. My only doubt is if I can attend an interview there or any other Visa-free country in Africa without being a resident. • I'm confused as to what to do and I need your advice here. Thank you!
