I don't usually like to pile on when someone's choices are being criticized, but assuming everything OP has written here is true, the timeline looks pretty bad: In early 2017 you applied for a B2 visa, at which time you were "married" to a Nigerian woman with whom you thought you had fathered a child. A few months later, in August, you met and married a European woman (not clear whether you married in Europe or in Nigeria). That relationship also didn't work out, presumably before you had a chance to move to Europe, and your wife got sick and died in January 2020. In February 2020 you had already met and proposed to a woman from the US (again, not clear if married in the US or Nigeria) and now (4 months later) are filing a CR1 application to live with her in the US. You are going to have a very tough time convincing a CO in Lagos that you have married for love and not for a ticket out of Nigeria.

I have used up my allotted  'likes' for today, lol.  This is a great post though, thank you for making it.

Haven’t been on here in a while. I filed my K-1 in 2014, AOS in 2015, had a long delay for ROC from 2017 through 2019, and naturalized in 2019 at which point my ROC was adjudicated simultaneously. But when I heard the news tonight the first thing I thought of was all of you in every conceivable stage of the process. I just wanted to drop by and say I’m sorry and that my heart is with you all. None of this is right, and none of this is fair, and you deserve better. The USA has a responsibility to do better. Sending my love to you all wherever you’re at in the world tonight. 

As much as I hate trump, I'd agree with freezing h1b visas and green card lottery for a while. I mean.. 22 millions unemployed people and numbers will go up.
 
Marriage/family visas, I guess it depends.. lots of people in certain industries are probably going to be out of work for several months. I guess they will need current employment proofs. If there isn't a source of income, we can all agree that it isn't the case to bring over new jobless people and get married, right?! 

I wouldn't panic over this, whether you are out of the country waiting for K1 approval, or in the country waiting for a green card etc, the immigrant process has been delayed historically for years with progression and regression due to many factors, it just means a delay, and the one thing I can say after going from K1 in 2013 to Naturalization in 2017 is don't stress about things you can't control (government bureaucracy, death and the weather) and just let things happen when they will happen.  99% of you will all be approved *eventually* for whatever you are applying for in the end, worrying and stressing won't change your outcome one bit.  Yes it's emotionally draining, but just be patient which is better said than done.

I just do not understand. He says to protect US citizens' jobs. Well I am a US citizen with both a bacherlors and masters degree in the physical sciences and I have not been able to get a job in the US for TWO YEARS!!!! Luckily I was able to find work in New Zealand. It is not legal immigrants taking jobs, it is the hiring practices of the US companies! It is a "who you know" mentality here, not what you know.

I attended my oath ceremony yesterday the 30th at the uscis office where I did my interview in Centennial, Colorado.  We were 34 in number from 17 diff countries.From the start to finish took an hour 46 minutes.  At the end, it's well worth it. I'm glad my uscis journey is over, I'm now a US citizen . Hurray !!!

I filed on Aug 25th , my estimate time still shows 4 months and april 2020 as completion time  but I don't think the time matters cos I'm preparing for my oath ceremony, waiting for the document with the date and time to show online. Denver has been averagely okay and am sure you will hear back from them before the end of Feb. 
Thanks Gio

Yeah I went for the interview today at the uscis office in centennial colorado. I was scheduled for 9am but I got there early but was able to get in at 8.20am , I checked in after going through the security. Then I was told to sit and wait for my name , I was called in at 8.46am, raised hand up and swear . Then he asked me 6 questions , who is my state senator? How many amendments do we have ? What's the capital of the United state? Who was the president during world war 1 ? Who is my representative representing my city in the house ? The movement that stopped slavery ? After I passed these six questions ,he asked me a question on the tablet in front of me , who was Abraham Lincoln, and he told me to read the question out then told me to write the answer on the tablet. Then he proceeded  to the yes or no questions, then he  to verified my former addresses and current one with me, then I signed somethings on the tablet. After he gave me a piece of paper saying have been approved.  I asked him regarding the same day naturalization  ceremony in Denver and he said they have stopped it but he said there is a ceremony coming up in 2 weeks and he will sign me up for it, and his sure I will be part of it. He told me that I will get the oath ceremony notice in the mail on or before the end of next week. I left the place at 9.15am . I'm glad its almost over .

Thanks,
Chris

Your heading says citizen or green card holder, which is it? It makes a difference.

Hello everyone, please I need your advice. I received a noid on I-130 on August 18, 2019. USCIS explained in details what they intend to do on the case. We were given 30 days to submit a response which we did on September 17, 2019. It's 2 months plus now, we have not heard a feedback from USCIS. We submitted all the documents we have like lease agreement, Rental insurance, life insurance, 2018 joint tax all of this in both our name and we have 2 friends and my wife's mum testifying to the marriage by writing a letter  and we also submitted photos. My EAD has expired, not working and they don't renew if for me. Please, I need your advice. Thanks
