I was just wondering if anyone has been scheduled for an interview for Aug. or Sept. at Lagos yet? I contacted NVC today and they said that they are still scheduling for Aug. Our case has been complete since 3/29/07 and the wait for an interview is driving me crazy!

I'm actually looking for information about that. Does it normally take so long to get an interview in Lagos with a CR-1 interview? Is it faster to get a K3 interview? how do u find something like that out?

I usually call the NVC 2-3 times per week to find out if they have scheduled our interview. We only applied for the CR-1 (I-130) but I think that it's fast if you apply for I-129 along with with I-130.

At the risk of sounding like a total moron, the NVC schedules the interviews in Lagos?

The embassy received my info. from NVC in April, but they didn't log it in until a month later. I received an interview date for 3 months later (Aug.1). Then I read that some people have received dates within a month. The whole process is nerve wrecking.

You filed the I-129-F which is faster then the I-130 for some reason.
