uhm no.. an LPR can petition for their children as well.  This could be started as an LPR and upgraded afterward.  There's zero reason to wait to send the petitions.

I know that, even if waits for that date, he won't have time to get anything ready.

How long did it take you to prepare your documents?  One afternoon and we were ready... it's not that much work if someone has their things in order already.

Lets see, for a IR2 or F2B, you need birth certificate for child, I-130, green card (or naturalization certificate OR US passport [OR US birth certificate, which does not apply to OP])... and that's it.  If you can't put that together in an hour something is wrong.   Granted, maybe you don't have the children's birth certificates and you need to order them etc, but really that would be the ONLY thing that would hold someone back.  This is isn't a spousal visa.  You don't need to prove a bonafide relationship. At the embassy the OP will likely be asked to submit a DNA test.

You don't need her death certificate to petition the children.  You probably would need it at interview to show why you do not have her consent for the children to immigrate.

I understand what your saying perfectly fine. Nigeria is a patriarchal society and it’s very possible for the father to retain full custody although he’s abroad. When the couple separates the father under most circumstances are custodians of their unlike in America where custody normally goes to the mother. Sir as far as your dilemma goes, you will need a death certificate or whatever document is legally issued in Nigeria to confirm death. Had the mother not expired you would’ve had to furnish a notarized letter from her giving consent to take the child abroad. It might also help to have pictures of the burial ceremony, statements from her Family attesting to her death. Expect for the embassy to send someone into the community to confirm all that you say. This is all done to protect minors from being absconded with.
