queenkaf: To be valid, the I-134 must be an original, signed by the petitioner. So unfortunately we can't accept them by e-mail. 1 Like |

Aburoy: All of that sounds great BUT I can't talk about people's "chances" here. There are too many variables involved! Still, if he's your dad and there's no reason why you'd be ineligible for a visa (criminal history etc.), it sounds like you have a very good case! |

HesInMe: 1. I'm guessing that July is indeed now filled. They schedule pretty far in advance, so that they have time to ship the files to us before the interviews. 2. You know, I don't know. I never thought about that before. Maybe it's because there are so many thousands of non-K immigrant visas to be scheduled every month that it's easier for NVC to do it all, instead of parceling the task out to each separate IV section around the world? But I really don't know. If I ever find out, I'll come back and post about it. |

iamoluwafemi: I'll make sure the status is updated to IR1. I'm not sure of the circumstances of your particular case (once again, I am away from my desk at the moment) but I've forwarded this message to the officers involved. I hope you get a response soon. |

sharlorhm: These are questions for NVC -- I have no way of knowing what's going on with the processing of your case. You might shoot them an e-mail at NVCInquiry@state.gov and ask them these questions. Make sure to include your case number, or, if you don't have a case number yet, your receipt number. Good luck! |

koczee: These are issues for my non-immigrant visa colleagues at https://www.nairaland.com/1792662/u.s-non-immigrant-visas-listening . But if you qualify for a visa now, what happened ten years ago shouldn't be a big deal if you don't attempt to conceal it. 1 Like |

Hopeful1987: I know the rescheduled appointments have been inconvenient! We usually don't have this many all at once. It's been a perfect storm of different reasons -- some files haven't arrived yet, and some of our interviewing days were unexpectedly shortened by a variety of factors. Again, I know this is annoying and I take full responsibility for it. This is the first time we had to reschedule like this in my three years in Nigeria and I don't foresee it happening again... not that that will make you feel better if it's affected you personally, I know. |

Good day ma. I would like you to please explain what a crime of moral turpitude is. Here is my case, I was once arrested and given a police caution for a case of shoplifting in the UK for an item valued less than £20. I have never had any other problem with the police aside this case which even happened as a sign on foolishness on my own side which I regret till today, now here is my question, does this make me permanently inadmissible, because my partner is about to petition for me, ma, I would like to confirm if my situation makes me inadmissible, hence my immigrant visa application rejected. I'm asking this so that we don't just waste our time and resources on something that wouldn't work ma, nd also so we can think of other ways of being together which may be really hard because coming back to settle in Nigeria might be a very big problem. Thanks in anticipation ma. |

Good evening our dearest VO,you have been a good representative of the united states of america and more strenght and wisdom I pray thee.I will need your enlightenment on the issue of visa bulletin(dv monthly release),from my findings of previous years of dv cut offs I observe two things that the case number is usually upto 81000 below and any year that does not occur their is this terminology called 'current',and according to what I have always read no country can have more than 7 percent of the total visa which invariably is 3500. My question is this, countries that the total number of selectees is not up to 1800 or 1000 as the year differs and at end of the dv programme by september some of the selectees case numbers was higher than the case number of the ending month and they already filled the form ds260 form what will happen to their case? And that word 'current' what is the meaning ma, thanks for your understanding |

Hello ma, my dad filed in for me in 2008 under F2b, I've been contacted by NVC to send in my documents which I've done but I also sent in my father's naturalisation certificate which he got shortly after NVC contacted me. Pls, does that mean I will be converted to F1 automatically. |

Hello Sir/Ma. My mother filed for me and after so many years I was called for interview on July 18 2014 which was successful but the medical result was delayed till September.

Good evening Visa Officer. My cousin just won the Diversity Immigrant Lottery Visa.( By the way he is Cameroonian). Unfortunately six years ago he served a 2 year sentence for mismanagement at his work place. What are his chances of getting his DV visa issued? Should he continue with the process or is it going to be a waste of time and resources? |

Its nice reading all the comments here and especially the ones from the VO. Its awesome that a VO can have time to attend to peoples issues. Thank you so much. I have a younger brother who is an LPR and has a little business he is running in US with his American wife.
