~~ Topic moved from AOS K1 to Working & Traveling during US immigration where EAD matters are discussed ~~
 
Fist step: Your friend should report the attorney to the state bar for blatantly ignoring and encouraging  clients to break the law. Second step: they should get another competent attorney asap
 
To answer you questions, no she cannot work without an EAD. That is illegal 

Unfortunately Visitor Visa interviews are more than 3 years in the future for available dates. I made one for my brother in law in August and his interview is November of 2023.
 
Right now this is what Lagos is showing for Regular  Visitor Visa====>824 Calendar Days
Visitor Visas currently are only for Emergencies only for Abuja.
 
As far as applying you should still be able to use your same account just adding another person. Usually for older people ties are not that big a deal.

Documents for her to take to interview show how she will pay for her time with bank statements. Not really much to bring. We aren't like Nigeria where there is a requirement of invitation letter. But still write up one stating her grandchild was born such and such and she wants to meet after all this time since the child will be a toddler by then.

Just for clarity many people from West Africa especially Nigeria do this because these are the things we must do to get a Visa there. It has helped many parents especially to get invitation to birth or naming ceremony which is a very big deal. It just helps the situation to explain.
It sure doesn't hurt the situation.

I had to schedule at a different office I waited months before I tried this and it worked… got an appointment a within a week….

You can only pick the visa up yourself or through proxy at DHL office in Victoria island 

Yes it absolutely worked 

taking stimulus can bite them back if USCIS questions the need for financial stimulus  if they are financially self sufficient and possibly disqualify them for green card 

Not true.  The stimulus check is a tax credit, something that eligible taxpayers are entitled to.  It is not a publicly-funded benefit like food stamps that casts doubt on someone's financial capacity.  Stop with the fearmongering.
 

my visa was issued today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Yes they are just looking at your documents and every time they look at it the case date with update... it may take them 2 days to review everything.. may take them 30 days it just depends on your case... I learned the hard way that patients is key.. and not checking the ceac website every second(at least what I was doing HA) relieves the anxiety 😀... GOOD LUCK 

my visa was issued today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you! Just be patient, I stopped checking the status everyday haha that helped me with the anxiety. I have gotten my passport with the visa today as well. best of luck! 

Dont think anyone can help us on this tbh, we just need more patience and keep in touch with embassy closely. good luck and update when you have good news?
 
Hopefully our cases will have (ANY) updates soon.

Agreed it’s not ap... I got the same response when I posted a similar question... this something totally different and I hope the both of us get our visa issued soon.... 

Yes, let's send the actually relevant information in private messages so 35 more people can make threads about it instead of reading about it in existing threads. 🙄

Pls this joke is too expensive!
Get your facts right with evidence before posting 😡

Okay awesome THANKS! 

Hello Again,
 
So I submitted my K1 visa application and got the notice that it was received on 09/23/19. On 10/23/19 I received a notice that said the application was approved and that it is being forwarded to the consulate..... IS THIS FOR REAL!!!!!! I have called NVS and they said they have not received the file yet from USCIS yet and that it can take 6 weeks. That was the status as of Friday. 
 
I guess my question is this for real am I missing something... the first paper I got was just a white paper but the one I received on 10/23 is like a greenish document thicker like official.... I am freaking out.. is it possible to be approved that fast!  Please help
