Please read the guides and the USCIS instructions that go with the forms.  Empower yourself to learn this process, it's for your own benefit.

You are a student but filed K-1 and then I-130 ??

 

Which is which? 

Immigration journey is not: fast, for the faint at heart, easy, cheap, for the impatient nor right away. If more than 50% of this applies to you, best get off the bus.

Apparently you’ve already adjusted your status from a K1 (with an interview in Lagos) in 2016. So not sure what’s going on here

Why is it urgent? If your wife is on a student visa she should stay in school and maintain status… I suggest you don’t adjust until you’re married two years. This way you don’t have to go through the expensive and time consuming ROC process.
