As with any tragic news story, whenever I hear about something happening in the world, I immediately wonder if one of my fellow I-130 peeps are affected. I just heard about the explosion in Abuja. If anyone here has their spouse in Nigeria, I hope they are safe and okay.

thanks for your concern bdrew612,we pray God should bring peace to our country!

hey peoples that got a CC; did any of you have pending packages for review when you got a CC? did NVC mail it back to you?

Why would NVC send you anything unless you request it. I know I requested my original marriage certificate be returned to me and they did.

But they don't return thing they send off to the embassy.

Was there something you are needing them to send to you?

Okay that was a clueless operator. Have you received your case complete letter? The missing information should be noted there. If not there then listed in your interview checklist letter.

How did you ask to have your marriage certificate back? I'd love to have ours, since it is the copy we signed when got married.

and how long it will take to recieved ?

thanks in advance !!'

Most are reporting getting it in 2 to 5 weeks. Usually after 2 weeks many have just gone to SS office because you should be in system to inquire or request its up to you.

How did you ask to have your marriage certificate back? I'd love to have ours, since it is the copy we signed when got married.

Just sent an email to them to please return my marriage certificate to me as it is needed and the original will be presented at interview. Took about 2 weeks.

Thanks bdrew612 for your concern, the regular explosion thing has become a big menace to the residents of northern Nigeria and we can only hope for change. The abducted girls are still with the same bad guys responsible for 99.9% of the blast in Nigerian.
