Lagos Embassy folks, I'm so so sorry. I wish there's something I could do 😔💔😭

@O&O are you still in Nigeria? I'm leaving tomorrow back to the US. My hubby had his interview yesterday and was approved

 

I'm so sorry you and others are still waiting on a date, can you contact the office of Sheila Jackson Lee? You never know where help can come. She's very passionate about immigration 

 

I'm praying and hoping for a swift positive response for you and everyone else ❤

Congrats!!!!!!!!! Wow!!!! Finally~~~~~~~~ 😍

Quick update for Lagos Embassy.  I just got of the phone with NVC, after waiting for 1hr on hold.  The rep told me that they are finish scheduling for February and next set of interview dates will be for march.  She gave me the same line about how we are still in queue for an interview date, and that no we have not been skipped.  So I asked her the one question that no one at NVC has answered me..I said, so how long do I have to wait before someone can look at our case to see why we are not getting an interview date?  She said well we can’t say.  Which means we can be waiting up to 8mth or 1yr and they will still be telling me you are still in line.  

 

Does anyone know of where or who I can report NVC to?  Please if you do send me the info.  

 

I really don’t care if people get fired, they need to be a bit more concern about everyone that call in.  I am so tired of them.

Hi all, update. My husband's visa was issued today in ceac. Our interview date was dec 3rd. We had to reupload our marriage certificate and birth certificate which we did on dec 19th. The embassy finaly accepted the documents yesterday, we went into AP status this morning and then by after noon visa was issued. They called my husband to let him know he can pick it up on Tuesday since embassy is closed on Monday.

I tried to search the forums with really no luck.... But does anyone know if being in administrative processing for resume / CV for the TAL security background check is effected by this partial goverment shutdown? The closest that I got was since its a matter of National security it should be processed as normal or with a dely, but that was for other APs.

 

Its been close to 2 months since our interview and husband keeps thinking he is denied... his friends with somewhat the same career background and same interviewing country are claiming that its taking too long. I know we had USA holidays and Russian holidays, but the Russian holidays should not have an affect on the Washington DC part. 

 

This shutdown has been a dampper on our moods since we arent 100% sure if we are effected by it.  And he has been thru this security check each time he had to get a new visa, and that only took 3 weeks and another week to collect passport... And I keep thinking we have been stuck as the next person to be checked for these last 4 weeks.

Have you called NVC to check?  Maybe they might have some answers for you. I know now every process is taking longer than usual since our president took office😒
