Thanks so much y'all..

Wow.. This is cheering news!

OK thanks so much.. I will stay hopeful!

Thanks so much @dwheels. When I paid the immigrant fee, it changed to optimized immediately, this was before I flew into the states. My Elis status has been in optimized mode since the day I paid the $165 immigrant fee. Isn't this strange? I tried using my receipt number to check my status on uscis website but it says invalid and error messages. The dates on my Elis account have not changed either. Isnt this weird?

My Elis status didn't change since I paid the fee. Is this normal?

I already applied for an SSN. But I am worried about my Elis status,it has remained the same since I paid the fee online. The dates didn't change either. How can I contact uscis?

I have a cr-1 visa, i arrived the states 3 weeks ago and I haven't gotten my SSN and GC even though I clicked YES on the ds-260 form online. I paid the $165 immigrant fee 2months before I flew into the states and my elis status has not changed since I paid the fee. How can I contact uscis about the elis problem? At the point of entry the immigration officer told me I would receive my GC in the mail within 3 weeks but this didn't happen and my elis status has not changed and the dates remained the same as when I paid the $165 immigrant fee. Please help me!

The social security officer asked me if checked the box for SSN in my ds260 application. I told him I can't remember. He said he's gonna wait till 8th of July to see if my SSN will arrive but if it doesn't arrive it means I didn't check the SSN box in my ds260 application. He said if it doesn't arrive, he will file a new application for an SSN for me and he will send me the receipt in the mail.

I went to the social security office and I filed for SSN. I wasn't given any proof of filing for an SSN. The officer told me it will take 2-3 weeks to get it in the mail.

So what do you advice me to do?

Thanks pals, I went to the social security office and filed for a social security number. I guess I cannot go to the dmv until I get a social security number cuz they require it to give me an identification card and process my drivers license hug? I just home all day searching for jobs online and I I hear jobs require the SSN to offer employment. I am confused, please help me!

My status on the Elis system says "In Process" the case received date didn't change either. Nothing has changed on my status in the Elis system.

Please anyone who can guide me on what to do next?

I arrived the states 3 days ago on a CR1...Everything has been cool so far. I was told at the point of entry in dubai that i would get my green card in the mail. But i dont know what next to do. Don't know how to get my social security number and any other stuffs that is required for me to do. Is there anyone who has gone through this or with an experience about this process? I need help on what to do next. I have been here in california only a few days and i have been staying at home all day.

I did my medicals in lagos february 2015 b4 my interview. I really don't know when the medicals will expire. Anyone with experience about this? This is why I am worried.

I got my CR-1 visa sometime in march, I am planning to fly out next month. I hope I won't have any problems at the POE for taking about 3 months to fly into the states after getting my visa? I am worried. Anyone with experience about this should please advice.

Thanks Y'all for your advice, however, I am considering contacting the lagos embassy to reschedule the my interview to a later date. This will allow more time for my wife to visit me in lagos. What do y'all think? Any ideas?

We have a joint bank account, emails, bbm chats, call records, video of the wedding, pictures together, sworn affidavits of two witnesses to the marriage. Are these enough evidence?

No I have never visited her in the states.

No I have never visited her in the states. What are my chances in this interview?

I guess u won't be allowed to go into the interview with ur husband. You will wait outside the consulate. How will this work? Any ideas?

Thanks Y'all for your advice, I think its best to have her fly into lagos to support me for the interview. But I guess she won't be allowed into the embassy with me. Will she? Your thoughts please.

I have been scheduled for an interview at the lagos embassy. But I am having some issues. My wife visited me in lagos for the first time in 2013 and spent 6days with me, within this time we got married. She had to hurry back to the states cuz she was expected to resume work the following day. She has not been able to visit me again bcuz her work schedule is so busy. Now I am scheduled for interview and I don't know how to answer the CO if they ask me questions like how many times has your wife visited you in lagos or when was the last time you met your wife? I am very worried if this will be a red flag at my interview. What am I expected to do? Is it really important to ask my wife to fly in for the interview? If my wife is unable to come, how do I answer this question in my interview? I need advice.

Thanks man, but the clinic link you posted is not showing any clinic address. Would like to know exactly where to go in the morning to do the medical examination and what am I required to take along with me to the clinic? Your response is appreciated.

Just got my P4 and interview date, I am required to go for my medical examination here in lagos. I don't know how to go about this our which hospital to go to. Any ideas? Can anyone tell me how to go about this?

I checked my AOS status thru my case number and also receipt number. I used my case and receipt number to sign in on the nvc site.

Thanks Y'all. I appreciate your response.
