I’m from a said high visa fraud country(Nigeria), 21 years younger than my female petitioner. A lot of people will say something to downplay you but know that nothing is impossible. Most importantly make sure you and your partner have a real relationship. Thanks for those that send me DM telling me to have faith and trust in God. My interview was not even upto 2 minutes and I was approved. I was disappointed that the interview was too easy because I was so prepared. Till today I still don’t believe that I got approved with all the red flags without a hassle. I didn’t frontload and everything went fine. Will be writing my interview day experience soon.

Congratulations on your approval! Feel free to look at the guides for the next steps to take in the US.

 

Just to note, nobody here said it’s “impossible” to get approved in Nigeria (or any other country for that matter). People get approved all the time there, but also plenty of people do not get approved as we have seen here. Also, cases are highly individual. I’m happy that you had a smooth experience. But it’s not fair, or true, to say that people “downplay” or “discourage” you. They are being realistic and always, always reiterate spending a lot of time together is key which will help overcome so called ‘red flags’ consulates tend to focus on. I do not recall anyone saying it’s impossible.

 

Good luck with the rest of your immigration journey

Congrats! I’m so happy for you. How long did it take you? I tried to find a timeline on your profile but didn’t see anything. When did you start the K-1 Visa process?
