US Immigration from Nigeria

They normally send cases to where the applicant resides. It can be transferred, but it will take weeks.

If the beneficiary moves to another country after I 130 filed at USCIS but before approval and submission to NVC, would they have to travel back to Country of Origin or because we will submit with NVC the new address it will go based off the new country ?

I know its bold, but I am plans to stay a prolonged time in my wife's country Nigeria as we wait in the DQ line. I have heard several people who stayed a few months in their spouses country, and I am interested in thoughts and advice to make the stay fruitful. I am discussing remote work options with my employer and I teach online, so I am not worried for income.

The consideration that this could be prolonged ie 1year+ is a possibility, but microtrips are costlier in the long run, and I am fine being a digital nomad in the meantime.

Thanks for all comments!

Hello Beautiful People,

I will be filing my N400 application sometime January next year under the 3 years rule since I m married to a US citizen. Please what are the list of documents should I start preparing for? And do I need to send or upload photos of me and my spouse? because my spouse don t like taking photos lol.
I will so much appreciate your feedback.

NB: I will be filing online.

After working with Individual Tax payer identification number (ITIN) and also paid tax with an agency for over 2years.

Now married to a US citizen and planning to apply for EAD while adjusting status.

Will it be out of place to state in the I- 130 and I-130A form that I actually work or to declare unemployed in order to

avoid all sorts of complications?

Looking forward to be educated on this.

Thanks

Hello,

Back in March 2020 I filed my I-751 with a waiver due to the fact that my husband and I separated. I submitted all my documents and received a notice 2 weeks later for my 18 month extension.
I received an email notification in August 2021 that an RFE was sent to me but I never received it. I filed online twice to let uscis know but I got no response. Each time I called, I was told that I would have to write a written letter to The Nebraska service center with any questions I had because they couldn t be answered on the phone- even when I asked where the RFE was mailed to or what it was about.
Due to covid, we just finalized our divorce in October 2021.
Since my extension expired, I was able to get an Infopass appointment to get my I-551 stamp and also ask about my case. The officer I saw in the field office literally told me she doesn t know why, but she cannot locate the RFE on my case or any information to give me and advised that I put in a request through the FOIA (freedom of information act) portal and that might be the only way to get the RFE. Luckily, my passport was stamped with the I-551. I also mailed over my final divorce decree and another request to receive my RFE.

Has anyone else been in this boat? I m scared that I May be in denial proceedings and I don t know because I cannot get any information.
