Your visa is as good as approved. Just go for the interview with whatever information you're asked to bring along on the box ticked on the 221G letter which accompanied your passport. They're aware your programme is past. I'm sure they're not asking you to complete a new DS-160 ( which is a proof they're quite aware of your purpose) Please do the following:

Print a copy of the expired conference invitation letter alongside the paid invoice for the event,if any.

Have your bank statements printed (they hardly look at this though, just in case)

If you're married, look for your marriage certificate and take it along.

Get your kids birth certificate(s) as well.
If you're self employed, take along your CAC, C02 and C07.

A copy of your DS-160 profile page

A copy of your scheduled interview letter for the May interview.

A letter explaining your mission in the USA and importance of the conference to the growth of your company and what it has benefited your company over the years. Remember they now issue 5 years visa. Even though you missed this year's event, you still have 4 subsequent ones to attend, taking advantage of the 5 years visa validity.

Take along the 221G letter( very important)

NB
They're aware of the japa syndrome so they need to be convinced of your intention and ties to your country.

On the day I went to pick my passport, I saw a lot of passports in which one yellow letter( suspected to be a 221g letter) was inserted in each so, you're not alone and it's not an issue, especially if you've never overstayed and you didn't tell them you were going for a visit or vacation while you actually went to give birth( this is for the ladies).

Many applicants always wonder why these people got to know of all these despite not stating it in their DS-160 or during interview. All their systems are synchronised such that people's info can pop up on request, including airlines you boarded with the help of a FoI act.

This isn't to create fears in applicants' minds. They just crave honesty.

Good luck!.

Thank you for this explanation. I appreciate it.

I applied through dropbox in feb. After 1month, my application changed to 'refused'.

I went to pick up my passport at dhl. When i got my passport, it had this sticky note pasted on the back "FP required". I assumed it meant 'fingerprint'. i took out the white sheet in the passport and it was addressed to someone else! The option ticked was to book a 221g interview and not the fingerprint option.

I asked the dhl why another persons paper was in my passport and he said the fault is not from them and i can email the embassy.

What do i do, please?

Do i book for the follow up interview and explain when i get there?

Will i have challenges getting into the embassy if i use the letter with a different name?

I need your advice.

Please can you update?
Did you get you money back and how did you go about it?

I am also a victim. I booked a return flight with green africa in april for 71k. Both flights were cancelled. I had to book an alternative airline flight for the trip to, and was able to rescedule the return leg with green africa.

Green africa assured me they would refund my N37700 in 20 working days.

Its been 3month and nothing..

Ive reported to my bank fcmb for over a month now and they say an investigation is ongoing.

Pls let me know how you worked through this. Or is this a level of fraud being perpetrated by @greenafrica?

I renewed my passport this week and it only took a few hours.

I spoke to several immigration officers and none of them could guarantee to deliver in less than a week. One of them referred me to the express center in maitama abuja.

The crowd there was terrible! And their capacity was about 150 persons a day or so. After 2 days of hanging around, i was finally able to get in. I was captured and 3 hours later i picked up my passport.

For those who desperately need pp and cant wait for the standard 6 weeks, express center is available.

Just pay the N26k online and attach your documents. Select maitama abuja as location for capture. You will need the payment printout to gain entry. Prepare your heart for the huge crowd you will meet. But once you get in and captured, you will definitely get your passport in less than 24 hours.

I forgot to add that you will pay N30,000 before capture (express fee). You can only pay with card so go with your atm card.
So total is N56000.
