Hey girl,
Thank you for standing up for our Nigerian family. I do know the post you are referring to, and to be honest before I went to Nigeria to meet my husband I read all the post on Visa Journey, on the internet, etc. And I became discouraged and I sometimes was very negative to a man that cared about me so much.
Then one day I had to come to a realization that it was my life and my decision to go to Nigeria, meet and marry my husband. So I did, he is amazing, wonderful and makes my every day joyful. So I no longer try to read the negative comments, and I feel sorry for the ladies that have encountered scammers, etc., and we will pray for them.
I encourage other women/men to follow their heart, listen for their own red flags and ask a lot of questions from other wives, etc. There are many support groups out there and the ladies will be straight up with you on their experiences, the lessons they have learned, and all the wonderful things about being married to a Nigerian.
Praying everyone finds someone as amazing as I have. Blessings!

I pray you are okay. I'm sorry he deceived you in any way, shape or form. I'm assuming the question that was answered by answering like he did, he answered it correctly. Was is something that is worthy of you not finishing the process, or divorcing him? Not something you can talk through.
I'm just asking, knowing that you surely loved him to go this far and be there for the interview also.
May your heart make the right decisions for you.
Warmest Regards!

Hi there. I too am an April filer. Sent mine off last Friday the 4th. It was signed for on the 7th but have yet to receive an email . I'm sorry you forgot your pics but I can certainly understand it. The whole process is so daunting. I didn't write N/A in the extra boxes where you put other relatives you're petitioning for. All I put was my spouse in box 1 bc he's the only one I'm applying for and I've since read that I shd have put N/A In all the extra places. I'm hoping it doesn't warrant an RFE but if it does, oh well. Frustrating, yes but what can I do.
I wish us both luck. It's going to be a long and bumpy ride!

We are October filers and new to this waiting game, everyday I think about packing my bags and heading off to live with my husband. The only thing that keeps me going on my bad days is listening to him sing to me. Thank God for whatsapp recordings "tell me this tell me that, why should I give all my love to you"? I love him so so much!!! I ask God everyday for a Quick journey for us all.

Congratulations. You got case complete too late for May so you will be in queue and hopefully when June scheduling starts in a few weeks you will get in.
Be sure to click on the Case Complete form so you can be added to case complete to interview spreadsheet.

The averaged wait time for the Nebraska service center for the I130 approval is five months. So from the date of your NOA1 calculate five months, after that time you can then start looking some news hopefully. But remember, there are people (friends of mine too) that submitted in the first six months of last year and are still in the same position you and I are waiting to get approved I130 and move to next level.
The best thing to do while waiting is to read a lot of the forums and post here on Visajourney.com and to join some wifes support groups on facebook to develop friendships with people going through the same process with you.
Please understand, this is now a waiting process for ALL of us and you have to be patient, and yes it will drive you crazy with tears and frustrations at the process. But honestly there is nothing you can do but continue with you life, make plans to visit your loved on again, and check this link every day:

To just see if it might show some movement on your case...............
Blessings and the best of luck to you

Correction DWheels,
We were in AP since December 9, 2013.
And yes, they won't tell you what they are doing. But I can help Escosbaby piece it together.
They would give one field Agent all the AP files for a specific region in Nigeria. They will not return those files until every last beneficiary on that list has been visited. That's why it is taking so damn long.
In my case, only one person visited folks staying in Oyo State and Oshun State. That much I know cos the guy visited us in RingRoad, Ibadan. Stayed 15 minutes at our place and moved on to the next Ibadan person. One of the neighbors we listed on our form saw them at her church right after he left us.
Then when my Fiancee was called to bring her passport, she met with other people who were also on AP. One of them since 2001. And majority of them were from cities around Ibadan in Oyo State and Oshun State. Their exchanges verified the same guy visited with them and all of them got called after their files were returned to the embassy.
Escosbaby, just hang in there. It will be your turn soon to sing. It got to a point that the Embassy staff warned me to stop pestering them with emails and calls. But I wasn't having any of that. I kept them on their toes.
Good luck.
