Has anyone travelled to the US when your case is at NVC or when you are waiting for interview at the US Embassy? My interview is scheduled for the end of Jan and I am planning to travel to the US during Christmas on my B1/B2 visa.

I believe I can if I prove to the immigration officer that I do not intend to stay there and I intend to return back.

If anybody has been through this, please share your experience.

 

Thanks

Yes, I traveled to the US on my visitor's visa while my case was at NVC. No issues at all. You still have to attend interview in your home country anyways....wish you luck

Congrats... How many days did yours take, and what embassy did you get interviewed?

Thanks. I had my interview at the Lagos Embassy on Monday and passports ready for collection on Wednesday. Message didn't come early enough on Wednesday though, had to wait till Thursday before I could pick 'em up.

Hello @Ebony1 have you picked up your passport and visa from dhl yet? I haven't collected mine yet cos I have not received a notification yet. Although it's showing issued on the ceac site. The lady said 10 days though.

Yes, I collected it on Thursday. The notification for collection came from DHL on Wednesday. From what I read on the CEAC wbsite, visas are ready in two business days all things being equal. Good luck !

When I filled my own I selected Abuja as collection point because is among the listed option. Hope is not a problem

I hope not considering you filled the information correctly. The last time i checked, for immigrant visas, there were no options. It just had to be lagos and Victoria Island branch. Good luck.

Congratulations!!! Thank you for the questions! Our interview is next month.  I do have a question...What did you have to do for the courier services? Do you only have to select a location you want your visa delivered to or did you have to set up an account with courier to pay for the services? 

You do not have to pay. Just set up your profile if you've not already done so. Click continue as though you want to schedule an appointment. Follow through filling the required info until you get to the point where it generates a confirmation page with passport details and a bar code. Keep that for collection of passports. Passports can be collected only at the DHL Victoria island branch.

I need help in making uscis immigration fee payment , where will I get Department of State (DOS) Case ID and Alien Registration Number (A-Number) to complete the payment .. thanks 

I guess you need to pick your visa before you can do that. The info you need is usually on the visa. Good luck !

Congratulations @Ebony1

 

For some reason my status at CEAC has reverted to "Ready for interview..." from "AP". I submitted the additional docs requested some time back after my initial interview. 

 

To those in the know, does this mean another interview? 

Thanks. I'm not sure I know why that is but I have yet to see anyone attend interview twice. I wish you luck.
