    NVC-Delayed Interview

    in National Visa Center (Dept of State)

    Hi Guys.

     

    I have a question and would appreciate someone with experience on the same issue to answer it. I am a US citizen; I filed for my Mom, who lives in Nigeria. As of October 15, 2023, her application has been documentarily approved, but there is still no interview notice. I have tried to contact NVC through the public online inquiry form, and their response was that they will schedule the interview when they have available dates or visas. I am getting worried about this because my Mom stays by herself and I have no siblings who can take care of her. Is there a way to get her visa appointment scheduled soon or to know what has been the delay all this time? Her priority date is July 2022, her visa category is IR5, and her interview location is Lagos, Nigeria. Also, is there a possible way to expedite the process at NVC?

    Any positive feedback will be appreciated, guys.

    They schedule interview based on availability of dates, she will be scheduled as soon as they have dates available

    Try "USCIS civis test study tools" one from USCIS dept of homeland security. Don't try to memorize the answers as you will get nervous again and will eventually be lost in a thin air. Your problem is not English but when the IO looks at you and ask the question you try to shake your head for the answers because you have a tendency to get nervous. Don't do that. Go through all the questions as it is a story to you. Who's the president and his cabinet, and congress, senate. US flag has a name "star spangled banner" like everyone else has one. constitution is all about laws and no one is above the law. There are 27 bill of rights which is also called 27 amendments. 1776 declaration of independence written by Thomas Jefferson (don't forget this name as he is one of the founding fathers). Exactly eleven years later meaning in 1787, constitution was written by founding fathers. When we say who's the father of our country, that's George Washington, so if he's the father, he had to be the first president and matter of fact he was. Do you see the pattern here. now go ahead download the app and have fun. I am sure you will ace the civic test this time. By the way, IO only asks 5 questions the max and don't feel you are ready, you got to be ready 100% Good luck!!!!!

    This should be called civics test Made Simple....Kudos🙌

    Thanks to V.J for being an amazing community!!

    I had my interview and got visa in hand two days after. Now, i'm prepping for my trip to the U.S, and want some insights on the following

     

    1. I will like to bring with me a couple of inhalers (Ventolene) for my Spouse, maybe five but i'm wondering if 10 would be an overkill. It's cheaper down here than in the United States, so i'm of the thoughts if i will be allowed to bring them since i'm not the one with the condition. More-so, does it require a medical prescription?

     

    2. I want to go on several road trips  as soon as possible when i move to the States. What's the fastest way possible to get a driver licence? I will like to get one within a month of entrance , is that feasible ?

     

     

    Thanks

    Just make sure you have you Nigerian Driver License Valid with that you will just to study and pass the driving test...Make sure to check your state DMV for documents they need for you to present

    my mum and kid bro uploaded same as mine and was accepted and they are both in the State as of this moment.

    i don’t really know how or where i got it wrong.

    As at the time i did mine i uploaded it with the Affidavit... CR1

    Got CR1 instead of IR1

    You got CR1 because you filled few months after your marriage not the day you got admitted into the US. What status do you have on your visa before you left your country? IR1 or CR1

    you are incorrect Sir/ma. it does not matter when they filed, what qualifies him for 10yrs card is if at the time he was admitted into the country the marriage is 2 years or more and if it was less than than 2yrs at the time he was admitted into the country he will only get 2yrs card. @Orafu LAWRENCE it was a mistake from USCIS

    Hello all,

     

    I had my interview on Monday and my visa was approved. I have also picked up my passport from DHL. 

     

    The thing now is I wasn't given any information about paying for a greencard. It didn't come up in the interview and I wasn't given a document for it.

     

    So can I travel to the US without that payment? Do I pay once I get in? I'm just confused.

     

    Looking forward to your responses...thanks 

    the instructions on how to pay wil be included on one of the 3 white papers the CO gave you after your visa approval. check it well

    Hello. I'm in F2B category and have been contacted to submit documents.  I can't find my birth certificate so I went to the National Population Commision to get another one. Rather than give me a birth certificate loke I requested, I was issued some kind of letter of attestation of birth with my passport photo attached and stamped, all with correct details.

     

    I'd like to know if anyone else has been in similar shoes and if the attestation of birth letter was accepted by the NVC.

    Yes that is all you need as far as birth certificate is concerned (Attestation).... you have nothing to worry about. Alot of us here has it too

    Thank you everyone again. I do have some questions

    1. When should one pay for the green card production fee of $220 in order to get the green card as soon as possible once entry is made into the USA ? I already see the payment instructions on page 1 of this thread( How to pay the Green Card Production fee of $220 on the Elis system)

    2. Is the issue of SSN automatic or one needs to go to the local SSA office to apply for one? I did copy and paste the below insert from page 1 of this thread. 

     

    (******************Tips about your getting your SSN******************

    If you don't have your SSN card within 21 days of your POE,  go IN PERSON to your local SSA office and see if your  application was forwarded by the Immigration officer.   It only works about 50% of the time when you tick  the box on the DS-260. As soon as you have your SSN you  may work.  Your passport visa and the immigration stamp  is the equivalent of your green card. )

    One is expected to pay for the Immigrant fee (Green Card Production)after you get your visa before you leave the country.

    Concerning the SSN, using myself as an example. I was told at the point of entry to wait 14working days before contacting the USCIS after contacting them 14days after they (USCIS) told me to wait till its 30days after arrival to book an appointment. Reached out as they have instructed and was booked, registered then got my SSN 6 working days after. Hope that helps
