I called them yesterday  and my case hasn't been received yet. My NOA2 on August 27th as well. Hopefully they receive it this week so we can have embassy ship date on September 17th.

It took about 14 days for the NVC to recieve my case which puts you guys at like next monday/tuesday so idk if you guys will make it, but fingers crossed!

How did you know when to book it?  Don’t you need to send paperwork first and let embassy tell you its ready?

It depends on the embassy and I can’t speak for all of them. But generally for some of the embassies (including Nigeria) after you receive your receive case number or your case is at the NVC you can go ahead and pay the application fee, complete the DS-160 and pick an interview date. Since our interview will be in November we have time to receive the p3(which is already on this site), complete our medical and police clearance! Hope that makes sense!

We booked our interview date !!! Can’t wait to be done with this part of the process in November!🥳

We paid before. Also you can start filling out the DS-160 and if you guys have to stop it lets you save it as long as you complete it within 30 days otherwise you will have to download it to a personal computer finish it and upload it when your ready. It was super easy. We just completed it together ( two pair of eyes checking for mistakes than one). 

Thank you so much for this info! I think me and him will complete it together this weekend and use these next few days to take passport photos and make payment to the bank! I pray we can both see our love next month!

If my memory serves me right. We used our WAC# for the DS-160. I believe you don't have to have the case number just make sure your appointment is far enough in advance that your paperwork has time to make it to the embassy before the interview. 

Thank you and I wish you much success throughout this process.  I will keep you lifted in my thoughts.  Good Luck!

Really???!! Ah ah I didn't know this o! Then I'll call my fiancé right away so we can fill out the form. Did you pay to the GTBank before or after filing the DS-160?

Did you do the DS-160 and grab you an interview slot last week when they had a lot available?

No I didn't! We had yet to receive our case number so sadly no! I'm hoping by this Friday we'll have our case number and that same day do that DS-160 and schedule an interview! I pray there are still plenty of slots available!

Congrats to you for getting interview date and being one step closer woohoo 🥳🎊🎉

Just called the NVC and they said they just received cases approved from August 9th and we were approved August 14th so for those in that timeline, we should be getting our case numbers hopefully this week! 😁

HI everyone, I have two questions

1. for those that used a co-sponsor who did you use? I mean was it someone who lives in your household, or did you use a family friend, a friend or coworker? Just trying to be proactive in finding a co-sponsor.

2. for the required vaccines, which ones can my fiance complete now before his medical so it doesn't cost as much?

Thanks! 

I had a question on who can be a co-sponsor. I currently live with a family that has 2 kids. I called the embassy who informed me that my co-sponsor had to be someone in my household but I'm wondering can a co-sponsor be someone outside the household? like a family member or friend or coworker? Thanks!

Do tell! When and how did you get your notification?

I received an email about an hour ago then saw an update on my case through the case tracker app! I immediately screamed and started crying and called my fiancé 😁 where I continud screaming and crying! We ended our phone call by saying " see you soon" ( realistically 3-4 months from now if everything goes smoothly with our case)! I'm so happyyyy!

Got our NOA2 today!!! NOA1-5/24/19, NOA2-8/14/19!

I'm so happy to be in this thread! Hopefully in 2-3 weeks we can get our case number from the NVC! 😁

WE GOT APPROVED!!!!! 🎉🎊

NOA1: 5/24/19

NOA2: 8/14/19

I AM BEYOND EXCITED! I CALLED MY FIANCÉ AND TOLD HIM AND HE'S REALLY EXCITED! 😁 God is so good! I'm ready for the next steps! 

Today is my fiancé and I one year anniversary 🎉 and the last time I saw him was a year ago! Praying that this new month we all get our approvals and are reunited with our loved ones soon! Long distance is the hardest thing I've experienced so far but its worth it for the love of my life 💜, we're so close May Files!
