  1. Good luck tomorrow! I'll be praying for good news this time.

  2. Well...Niether yes or no, yet. They asked him for contact information from some neighbors in Ghana and one in Lagos. They asked him to schedule a date for our daughter's mom to come in and have the paper notarized to allow her to immigrate with my husband, and so they can ask her some questions.

  5. I made myself wait a few days and then called the NVC this morning. Chinedu and our daughter's interviews have been scheduled for April 15. I am feeling thankful and ecstatic right now!!!

      It's also my dad's birthday (tax day, always easy to remember). So I'll be taking him out to dinner, as is tradition. I'm praying to have some additional good news to celebrate that evening. I'm so excited!

      CONGRATS!!!! I saw ur message on my wall, I think our problem came when I didn't tell the boys mom to bring any vaccination records to the boys' medical appointment. Please, tell hubby to get all of his and the baby's vaccination records ready so he can bring them to the medical. Might save you a few bucks! I hope. If you have any questions moving forward you can inbox me or get my number from DWHEELS, as im a step ahead of you.

      OMG congrats, I am so so happy for you, You will recieve good news on that special day IJN.

  6. I can usually manage to be pretty patient, but I found myself calling NVC not once today, but TWICE to ask if an interview had been scheduled

      Carlos1986

      I know the feeling, I've been calling them every day. Finally, they set it up today. They didn't send the email, then i got it after i spoke with them. Its coming..

      I was calling twice a day then as well. You're simply keeping them employed and busy :)

      I forced myself not to call yesterday, but i called again this morning. Still no date. I'm gearing up for a long and impatient weekend, soI can start calling again on Monday.

  7. Just here waiting and trying very hard to be patient...I think I will be praying for the RIGHT date, rather than a quick date...I'll keep you all posted on how that works out for me.

  9. Just here playing the waiting game again. I know everyone here's either been through it or is waiting now for whatever reason. So at least I'm in good company, right? :)

      Two packages? Are there other packages to send them after the I-864 packet and the DS-230 packet?

      Nope just call after a week and keep calling until you get case complete confirmation from there. Hopefully you make it for the April interview queue.

      Once interview is scheduled than its medical. So all you have left to do is getting interview documents and interview prep work.

  10. I mailed off the last of the NVC paperwork today. I'm so excited! Now I guess its back to waiting...

      Psyched for you!!! YEAH! ...not a long wait! That's what we are praying for, for you!

  11. I got the documents yesterday and made all the copies tonight. I just need to get them all in order & send them off. I am thinking though that since I am one document away from having my 2012tax return completed and I am supposed to have that by Jan. 31, I may as well wait 3more days and include it, so that there's no chance of that holding up the case. Opinions?

    1. ndu26

      from what i understand, 2012 tax is not required until after april 15th but if you are that close, then it wnt hurtn to have it just in case :)

  12. Chinedu got all the documents sent off to me this morning. They should arrive by Monday, then the mad dash to get all the copies made, get everything arranged, and send it all off, along with the DS-230s. Yay!!!!!!!!

      It's the 29th...update please!

  13. Good news! Chinedu now has the passport for Favour, his birth certificate, and police clearance from Lagos. He heads back to Ghana tomorrow. All that's left is obtaining police clearance in Ghana and sending me the documents. Yay!!!! Looks like we're moving forward at last! Maybe he'll get to interview in March.

  14. Welcome to VJ! Please feel free to ask if you have any questions. There always seems to be SOMEONE on here who can answer. :D

  15. Well People...Chinedu's in Nigeria now, trying to round up all the documents we need (FINALLY!) and get back to Ghana in time for my arrival there. Just 6 days until I leave, and Christmas cleaning and packing still to do. AAAhhhhh!!!

      perfectly okay with me! That's what we're all here for...a strong shoulder to lean on when we can't figure it out ourselves. I can't wait for you to get all this started! I'm so excited for you to be finished and bring him home!

  16. Going to see Chinedu in Ghana after Christmas. I only get to stay about a week, but I am SOOOO excited!

      Dana and Divine

      Super excited for you! Still praying for you all and hope things get moving very quickly so they can come home to you!

  17. Praying like crazy for you tonight! May God be with Divine at the interview tomorrow and may you be able to bring him home right away.

  18. I'm still around =0) We've just been hitting roadblock after roadblock, it seems. We've been dealing with all of those. Eventually, it will all get straightened out, right? How have you been?

  19. Hard to believe summer break is almost over! Where did all that time go? Just gearing up for school/work to start again. Bring on the stress! It helps time pass much faster=0)

      Aren't I a slacker? It's been awhile since I checked this profile. Thanks for the encouraging words ladies. I am definitely being taught to be patient. Truth told, it's something I really struggle with :)

      Baby, in this process...it's something we ALL struggle with and have to pray about daily!

  20. And NOW his case is officially transferred to Nigeria. It only took two months. No big deal, right?He even has a spiffy new NVC case number that starts with "LGS".

      Finally got the interview date! What is gong on with your case?

  21. I have been married to my best friend for one year today. I love him more than ever and would not change it for anything (even with all the visa hassle:)

      the fact that he also has a daughter and we are planning to have at least one more will offset the last red flag on my list, but who knows?

      Well I have had three marriages prior and I have three children. Two grown and getting out of the house. WE also want one more and my youngest is 5. I was a co-sponser for a Kenyan man last year from my church. This was after I'd already met my husband for the first time and came back home. I don't believe that will get in the way. 1) my husband knew about it before I co-signed and 2) the guy I co-sponsored...he and his wife are about to open a store.

  24. It seems we've hit a road block. My husband's case has been routed to go through Ghana (where he lives). We decided that rather than going through the headache of getting his residence permit there, we'd have his case transferred to Nigeria (his country of birth). He emailed the NVC (with a copy of his Nigerian passport biographical page attached) to ask that it be transferred. This was done on April 16th. Still nothing. I emailed over a week ago, also including the attachme...
