congrats on the approval dear.

Wishing all those interviewees best of luck today and waiting for goodnews out of Lagos too.

i think CSC is catching up gradually too.

congrats, have a safe and pleasant trip. That approval came just in time.

For those who are ignorant and want to claim sainthood for their unknown countries of which they are not proud to dispaly, shame on you.

Now, I do not need your response, but still feel free to reply this post by expanding your magnitude of ignorance.

I was looking through the other post where a VJ member only a few weeks pregnant and now wants to go back home to her family and file for a divorce etc, I did not see anyone say it was fraud or something silly. What is good for the goose is also good for the gander. All I read is I hope all goes well.

This is a real life story and it happened in my eyes. This man or woman are not planning to come to US or defraud anyone.

My mother had a friend who had a child out of wedlock and the child lived with her mother, but always called her mother "aunty". The woman was happily married with 3 other children, but the daughter who always called her aunty was the oldest child in the house. She was treated like a housemaid, and her mother always told people without reservation that the girl was her sister's daughter and she is just helping her sister raise her up. Her husband knew of this arrangement before he married her and agreed to the "aunty" stuff.

One day out of no where from the blues she came to our house to tell my mum she has something to tell her and to please forgive her because she cannot hide the secret anymore. She said "I am XYZ's biological mother" and broke down in tears. My mum trying not to be judgemental said "o please what do you mean to forgive you?" You are an adult of yourself and whatever choice you make in life you should be able to stand up for it. So if it was ok for her all these while to "disown" this girl and allow her to call her aunty, that is her cup of tea.

So if the OP has decided to claim her child she has every right to.

Goodluck on whatever choice you decide.

goodluck as you begin the process.

he who started the good work in you will be faithful to complete it.

congrats.

welcome onboard, new name is patience.

goodluck, hold your head up high, be confident. best wishes

get a response from them first before the trip. they usually do not schedule in weeks; very famous for earliest date to be 2mths away.

if i were you i will get a date to reappear for interview first.

goodluck

congrats that is a miracle.

do medical exams expire- i thought those exams were actually vaccinations.

Yes gather enough evidence those people in Lagos are hard to please.

Goodluck

congrats, wishing u speedy processing at NVC.

congrats, i bet the NVC package is sitting at his door step ready to be sent off just like mine lol-...

so we received our I-779C notice of action yesterday, with oct 27 as priority date, hum that was really really fast priority date. We are at CSC though,guess it was re-routed to CSC.

Rujby any luck with the money gram people??

no harm in copying all the pages- we did so.

sent ours today. await noa1 next week hopefully.

seems we have 2 oct filers thread.

phew, sent package off today.

Glad you started the thread Squib.

We will be sending off our package next week hopefully. I guess by then you'd have received your NOA1.

I have been looking for our thread did anyone start one for cr-1 oct filers yet? We hope to send ours next week all things been equal.

I do not think that should be a problem as we plan to do ours same way.

But let's wait see if others have different opinions or similar past experience.

Thanks Ryan H. Will mail out next week.

We are filling on monday pls correct me if I am wrong. Does the stand alone I-130 not go to chicago lockbox? Regardless of service center.

Thanks will do.

Pls I need help to this question. I have divorced my current husband before and now remarried him.

So filing stand alone I-130 now for him do I still write his name as prior husband when we are now married again?

Any body had a similar issue because we are trying really hard to avoid all RFE's.

Thanks

First of all welcome. Please take the time to read the information available for you here on VJ. Ask the more experienced members for advice, specially the Nigerian members, since you are dealing with Nigeria.

Do not rush, read and prepare yourself very well prior to filing. Ask and we will direct you if we could. Remember you are dealing with one of the hardest embassy's. Being informed and prepared will increase your chances of getting through this with approval. NO guarantees can be made but with the available information and guidance you will have a better understanding what is ahead. Good luck

Thanks for your advice. We are counting down to filling in a few weeks.

I will keep in touch and keep you all posted especially those that have gone through Lagos.
