So I finally I had my interview today in Lagos Embassy and got in around 6am local time. We re screened in. And stood on quene for so long ( Legs pain). Original documents and fingers printings went well. I was finally called and I face one young white lady. So nice and she asked the following questions. 
Co- Good morning
Me- answer
Co-Who is calling u?
       How did u meet?
       When was the last time u see him?
       Show me his tax transcript 2017.
Me- I gave her the income tax return, w2 and 1099
 Co- Can I see some pictures?
And finally she said ur visa is APPROVED. So happy and tear of joy almost came out from my eyes in front of her since 2016 without my better half. I thank God is finally over. All thanks to God Almighty and everyone here. I really appreciate u all. And I pray all of us waiting will be united with our love ones soon ijn. Thanks
 

Best of luck  I hope you get your cc ,interview and then visa soon... 

Hopefully... i found relevant post and took screen shot. Let me attach it here. Hopefully its helpful for you.

Ye, he did filed extension.. hopefully it works  thAnkss and best of luck to both of us 

Hey congrats!! Yeah, you should explain in a cover letter. does he file an extension? you could include that.
Yaaay...Congratulations.

Ok so latest update, i just got off the call with the NVC and the lady (forgot her name) was really nice and she told me this does happen and i need to do the following
1. Attach a copy of the extension for 2014 returns
2. Get a letter from the petitioner/accountant stating as to they have an extension on the tax returns
3. Attach the 2013 tax returns and show the 2013 tax returns as the most recent tax returns filed on the I-864
4. 2012,2011 tax returns are optional
She said i should be fine if i attach all these items.
Thank you VJ members G Walters, NLR and Wilaro for all your help! God bless you all!

Hey guys...
   so we finally found a joint sponser but he is business man and he will file 2017 tax in september.. how what do we do? We write a cover letter telling that he is business man and will file tax in sep or nothing is required?? 

Only his income would be enough... but we will try to find a better option for a month if not then we will ask him to fill the form.
 
Best of luck for your case  

Hey, We were dealing with the same issue, thats why it took us a WHILE to send out our package. We were blessed that at the end we were able to find a joint sponsor.
I'm sorry I couldnt be of much help.
Have you considered using assets (even the intending immigrant assets?) The last resort would be the petitioner relocating to the US first and find a job so he/she can be the sole sponsor. Good luck!!!

First your ds-261 will be reviewed then fee will be opened. I called nvc and ask the lady on phone to review it for me and she did. fee was opened after that.

💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽case complete non pivot,first scan date April 18th received checklist on the 28th of April,sent documents out on the 1st of may,second scan date 4th of May cc 10th of May.4working days ,finally am so happy 

Oh my gosh yes, people are always asking about when this should all be done, when I'll be seeing my husband, when we'll be able to move together, and I hate that all I've been able to do this whole time is provide my best estimates based on things like these forums and google searches, and then we experience delay after delay, and I have to feel like an idiot when people are like "oh, I thought you said February.." etc. Although I have explained since day 1 that all I have are best estimates based on recent timelines provided by others..
 
Still, I appreciate people taking interest and checking in, and these forums have helped me 100x over and I can't imagine going through the process without these forums now..
 
It's just so frustrating when you don't even know what to expect, what to tell anyone, when to plan anything for...and gut-wrenching when you got your hopes up, and hear of a delay, or hear nothing..
 
Thank you again for your input and for hoping for things to fall into place nice and quickly for my husband and I! 

Remember the term bonafide takes the adverbial form in this. Literally means without intention to deceive. Bonafide Marriage- Marriage without the intention to deceive. This is my English Teacher coming out right now. lol
