*** NVC requested I show proof of Sierra Leone citizenship in order to interview in Sierra Leone.
**** NVC requested I show proof of Swedish citizenship in order to interview in Sweden.
***** CO in Stockholm forgot to have me swear and sign DS-230 part 2. Transferred entire file to US Embassy in Oslo for in-person signature and pickup.
