I'll suggest you go to National Population Commission at Surulere, to get an attestation of birth using the full names you have on your passport and other official documents.

thanks.What if I go to the highcourt and get an affidavit alone. wouldnt that suffice?

it won't suffice. The only recognized one is from npc

My brother filed for me in 2006 and I got my welcome letter by December 2018. Call it 13 years.

wow nobi small thing

Taal17:



Do you think it will affect those who have already uploaded the current i864 form? I only had civic doc to upload before system maintenance kicked in. I honestly hope one wouldn't need to redo forms already uploaded
I'm not sure what to tell the parent I'm helping right now

Done, site is up. Thanks everyone

THIS IS FOR THE GUYS THAT ARE YET TO COME TO THE US. PLEASE, TRY AND GET AN INTERNATIONALLY RECOGNIZED PROFESSIONAL CERTIFICATE BEFORE YOU COME BECAUSE THEY DON'T FULLY HONOUR OUR BSC OR MASTERS, UNLESS YOU'RE LUCKY. IT WILL HELP YOU GET A GOOD JOB FAST WHEN YOU GET HERE. WE WON'T WASH THEIR PLATES OR DO SECURITY FOR THEM. WE'LL TAKE UP THE GOOD JOBS. I WISH EVERYONE THE BEST.

Just got our welcome letter after 13 years with mixed feelings...under the F4 category.

We both have great jobs here
In Nigeria and we’re on the verge of cross posting to Dubai...

My kids are American citizens... born in America so it will be just the hubs and I going through the process.

Filing was done in april 2007

Now following the thread..

Glad to meet y’all

It just gives you options but even then its not for everyone. May wisdom guide you

In any field of your choice. It'll give them more confidence to employ because they don't trust our UNILAG'S OR UNIBEN'S.

Congrats. Now you'll be back to the states with a green card. How I wish my kids are also US citizens, I'll just "dump" them with my mom to allow wifey and I upgrade ourselves and get great jobs.

But my kids are really young... I can’t leave them behind.

How old are yours?

Amen, tnx

We are considering all options e.g maintaining the green card without fully moving or lobbying for a work transfer to the USA branch ..
It will be difficult to quit and move to uncertainty

Panick mode!!!

My follow to join dependant children have been removed from my profile. Even my brother's kids. We are on f2b. Anyone knows whats going on?

Hi guys

Quick one.. my F4 petition was filed when I was single, now I’m married. When do I get to add derivative for my husband ? When filling the application form? Or is there another process?


Welcome letter had been received.

Thank you

It is good to be here.... I still have couple of years to wait , I hope it worth the wait. I'm in F2b category.

Congratulations!

Your spouse and children should accompany you to the interview. And every person in the case is charged the visa processing fee, even babies.... But in this your case i knew it is your hubby that needs to be added since your children are citizen already.... Best of luck Uchetobi

Hi everyone.

I misplaced the original attestation of birth that was submitted to NVC but i have the photocopy. Can I go with the photocopy instead or I request for another one from National Population Commission before the interview?

To be on a safer side why don't you just take the photocopied one to NPC and show them so that a more original one from the photocopied one can be done.

Good day everyone.
I will like to find out something. My father filed for my 3 siblings and I was the only one who received the Immigrant Visa Interview Appointment email. Since the petition was filed together, I understand we will attend the interview together. What I don't understand is the fact that the interview letter was addressed to me alone. How do I print for my siblings because I heard we must take the letter for medicals.

Kindly help a sister.

Were you able to resolve the above last concerns of your?

Congratulations, you can send Nvc a mail with your attached marriage certificate .when you login add your derivative and once it's approved you will make payments for all.

Thank you. I will try the option of obtaining another copy but if that does not work, can i get a new one and explain at the point of interview when asked?

About the interview letter for my siblings, we contacted the consulate in Lagos and they said their documents have not arrived, however, we have been asked to contact NVC about the status. All their documents have been approved but no case complete email.

Okay, but even if you want to get a new one make sure it's the same information as the old one since you're taking the photocopied one and it's the same information they already have on file with USCIS.

Congrats dear. Wish you a pleasant flight and a wonderful life here.

Very happy to find this thread. Thank you pretty16 and every other contributor in the house.

I-130 applicant

Got my notification email from NVC on 28th October. A very long wait.

I have just paid the fees for AoS and IV, and awaiting confirmation.

I'll sure need the kind guidance of everyone here, but I'll take my time to read through the pages first.

Thank you!
