I personally find Lagos to be one of the most difficult embassies in the world for marriage visa sas well as religious discrimination. They dish out K-1 visas all day long because they know the parties involved have 90 days to change their mines. K-3 people are not so fortunate. My personal experience from talking to one of the consulars is that they may be just as corrupt as the Nigerians they claim they are trying to legally keep out. This embassy gets more complaints according to one State Dept rep than most of the 225 the world over. They never answer the phones & they never answer their emails which go to lagoscons2@state.gov. I really find it an atrocity that this country can see what your personal finances are. The consulars I saw when I was there were all white. the Nigerians I have spoken to here in the US say the place has undergone a change for the worst, it is now corrupt from the top down. So if you got your marriage visa without too much of a problem you are truely one of... read complete review

Let me begin this by thanking God Almighty for the smooth journey during the actual interview process. My fiancee arrived the consulate on time and went through the same process of queuing, paying and waiting for her name/number to be called as noted by other reviewers. At around 10am, she was called to submit her Affidavit of Support form and other medical document.s At about 4:30pm, she began her interview proper with the same very nice guy. From the reviews i read, it seems its same nice guy and the same tough lady. The nice guy only asked my fiancee how we met and what I did for a living including what courses and projects i am working on in my school. The entire interview lasted about 2mins and after my fiancee answered the questions and backing it up with pictures, the CO told her "Welcome to America" and she was given a letter and her passport was withheld to be returned to her on the 30th of Aug. at 2pm. I'm glad to see this part over with.

My interview was on the 7th of August 2007, my appointment was for 7am, but i finally had my interview at 2pm, and that wasn't very funny cos i was there in time and so i had to wait in a very cold room for about 7hrs, so be sure to wear something really warm so that you don't get cold. But when i was finally called for an interview, it went very well, i was interviewed by a nice and friendly guy, who asked me what i knew about my husband, how we met, what he does and what kind of things we talk about, and i told him all that, then he asked for pictures of our wedding which i gave him, and i guess that was all he needed, even though before the interview i had already submitted other stuff like like birth and marriage certificates, affidavit of support, medical report and stuff like that, so he asked me to come and pick up my visa in the next 3days and now, i am with my husband and it's so wonderful to finally be with him. Good luck.

For anyone going to this embassy for this type of visa, here are some important things to note when you have your own interview. My husbands interview was scheduled for 7 am and we arrived at 6:15 am just to make sure we didn't get caught in any of that Lagos holdup. That wasn't necessary because the first people that get to stand in line for appointments are people who are doing drop box only. Meaning they don't have an interview, they are just dropping their passports and getting fingerprinted. After they are in line, then the regular interviewees are allowed to queue. Once inside the embassy, people waiting to be interviewed wait until 10 am or so, when the drop box people are finished being processed before any actual interviews take place (this explains why people are always waiting hours for the interview at this embassy). From what my husband said, and what I could observe with my own eyes, it doesn't seem to matter what position you have in the line. They already have an order ... read complete review
