That sounds like a really good list. The guide above recommends carrying a letter reiterating that you still intend to marry and that your relationship has grown blah blah blah. Basically saying, that you've made us wait so long, I just want to let you know we're still together and planning to support each other. Considering how touch Nigeria can be, it couldn't hurt to add it to the list. Also, don't wait until the last minute to send it. Who was it that nearly had a heart attack recently because she sent the stuff out to her SO in Nigeria and the day before the interview he received it. Don't take chances, give some time for errors in case you need to send it again.

Sounds like you got it all, we included a letter of intent at the interview. Like what Zainab said, it's sounds like a good idea. I probably would not send 125 photos. I don't know about Nigeria, though I heard they only take a few at the interview. It would cut the weight of your package down a little bit, if you didn't include so many. Maybe someone else who has gone through Nigeria can let you know, what the embassy allows. If it were me, I would show about 15 photos. We knew Ghana didn't let you show a whole album, just to pick out a few to show. I think we gave 10 or so and they didn't complain. Also, don't wait til the last min to send, you got to give your SO enough time to look through everything and familiarize himself with the paperwork, to present at the interview. Plus, what Zainab said about the other vj member who's package just about didn't make it there in time for interview. Hurry!

Hi,

It sounds like you have plenty of documentation for your interview. You will be fine. You will be nervous until it's over with and then you will kick yourself for getting so worked up after it is all over with. They hardly asked for any documents at my husband's interview but I say it is better to be safe than sorry. Don't worry so much everything will be okay I will be praying for you and your SO.
