Event Description

Embassy Review : We need good advice, please. Our journey, despite COVID, has been good - that is until the interview at the US Consulate in Nigeria.
DQ: 07/11/2020
CR-1 Married October 2019
USC Petitioner
Our first interview was on January 11, 2021. My husband arrived, waited for a couple of hours, was called to a window. The CO told him that his interview had been rescheduled to February 1, 2020. We never received any notification. His email was verified and beyond frustration, my husband left the Consulate, checked out of his hotel, and traveled home (about a 6-hour ride). So, we've been planning now for February 1, 2021 - no letter ever received, just the note made by the CO on his January interview letter.

Today, I received an email that our interview was rescheduled to March 1, 2021. The letter said, 'this has been rescheduled by the Consulate for administrative reasons.' Three different interviews, two reschedules are painful. We've come so far and now we seem to be stuck in a loop, waiting for an interview, one that can enviously be rescheduled at any moment without explanation turning our lives upside down once again.

Everyone, all of you I know have had your frustrations, your pain and your celebrated joys. We understand. Please share any recommendations or advice you have that will help us to finish this journey so we can be together.

Thank you. Today Jan 11 was our interview appointment. When my husband got to the window they told him the interview had been rescheduled to next month. So heartbreaking. They claimed they sent an email notifying us, but neither of us ever received that email. I wish they would have just done the interview - he was there, after waiting for more than a year to be together again and now on hold again - for no reason known to us. I swear, I'll immigrate there for us to be together if we get pushed out again.

Oh my goodness! I’m sorry to hear that they did that to you two. How disappointing! Not to mention to reschedule it but to postpone it until July?! Like wow! Hubby and I walked about our next steps if we are denied as well. He doesn’t want me to move there, haha, thinks I’m too soft for that Naija life. Lol. I’ll pray for you guys and this process.

Our reschedule is for February 1, just not sure how to confirm that so we don't repeat the same issue. Were you ever able to see your appointment at the travel docs website? That site really has us confused! Haha, it's a hard life there, that's for sure! Time will tell, prayers for the two of you as well!

Ours was rescheduled from Jan 12 to Feb 3 and then to March 15 all for administrative reasons. We had ours yesterday and got approved. You can send a mail to them requesting about a notification for your date

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.

** Not all cases are transfered
