Combo Card received.     Telephonically initiated expedited request for EAD and AP to USCIS on 03/02.   On 03/12 received notice to fax expedited request/submission to Lees Summit, which was completed on 03/15.  On 03/18 was advised new card was being produced.  I received my Combo Card in the mail on Wednesday 03/24.  Having requested SS card in 485 application, we were curious if SS had received notification from DHS, so we called SS today to see if they had received any information from DHS.  SS, as has been usual for us, was their typically unhelpful, and worse still, their typically untruthful, selves.   We were advised that there was no way for SS to tell if SS had received any information from DHS because SS had no method to search by name.  Silly.  Oh well, at least we have the EAD/AP, and we continue moving through the process.....

Two mistakes already.
 
Not sending the I-944 and choosing the wrong category, the right one is C9/C09.
 
Redo your forms and pay attention to the instructions.
 
You don't need to separate the biometric fee.

C09 is the correct category - using A6 is wrong and does increase the fee.

Thanks Greenbaum. I really appreciate your support 😁

Thanks a bunch,I so appreciate 

When the Embassy is ready to issue a visa, it will change to "Non-immigrant Visa Application"; at that time, you will know that you are a few days away from getting the visa. It will go from "Immigrant Visa Application" Administrative Processing to "Non-immigrant Visa Application" Administrative processing status and then your visa changes to "Ready" ==> "Administrative Processing" ==>> "Issued" status as well. These steps sometimes transpire over a day or even a few days. Some smaller Embassy's it happens within hours.
 
Sometimes, it might skip "Administrative Processing" and go from "Ready" to "Issued".

Alright. I checked this morning . No updates yet. I don’t understand the delay

With millions applying for a visa I am sure this has happened before.
 
Nigeria is a very difficult embassy to process through. Even though they told you that you were approved, approval isn't a sure thing till you have your visa in your hands. The fact that the dates have changed is a sign that someone is "touching" your record. We have seen 2 weeks to months before Nigerians receive their visa. You'll need more patience. Don't make any plans or quit your job especially don't but airline tickets that can't be changed.

I had my immigrant visa interview on the 19th of December, 2019. Status changed the following day to Application received till date. Today makes it the 10th business day. Seems we are in the same boat.

Hi all, I didn't see a thread for this yet.

The consulate will extend the validity for upto a year.

To correct this you do either of the two solutions below:
 
1. Submit an inquiry at the CGI website, tell them your case number and your name and your new application ID, they will correct it.  https:/cgifederal.secure.force.com
 
2. Follow the link  https://cgifederal.secure.force.com/applicanthome, clicked on "Provide Feedback" on the menu on the left, chose "Online system errors" on the "reason" drop down menu, write about the discrepancy from the new DS-160 application number and the schedule confirmation that was sent to you in the "comments" box, and attached a photo of your DS-160 application confirmation.  Shortly there after you will receive a scheduled confirmation that has the new DS-160 application number.
 
Hope this helps.

Start new application as F-1, at some point you click update profile update AA number.
Then start new application as K-1, your AA is updated already.
 
System bug does not allow K-1 update profile AA number, only non immigrant can do that.

Call the consulate about 9am on this number 01 227 8955 if you are not in Nigeria then start with +234 follow the auto voice and request to speak with an agent who will fix the problem for you.when calling have your passport number handy and the new AA number.
