Applying for visit visa if he gets it all good whilst you wait. I don't know of any other option.

Alright. Thanks for the timely response.👍🏾

Some of things I recall she mentioned are everyday realities
She just moved so she had to adjust, get certs apply for work.
She had 3kids, moved in with her mum who also worked so she was limited in work hours she could do cos of the kids
Time! To come back to Nigeria you'd need leave days which would mean scheduling who who would take care of kids whilst she away.

My thoughts as well
US is notorious for being stingy with leaves it's typically 10-15 days a year. So many people who have to make trips to Nigeria wait till they can accumulate enough leave days . That can take two years for most
Money!; Shed be the primary sponsor so she'd need to prove the income threshold to file for him.

If you add the above with the fact that in filing the new spouse becomes F2A and goes through the same wait as it is in Nigeria consulate. Filing-Petition approval-NVC-DQ-Interview, then these are realities

These are really tough realities 🥺. The thought of the timing alone is stressing me out. Just like the op, i have three kids and we all live with my mum and sis. But, my bf is back in lag and we haven’t even officially gotten married. I need to come to lag, do the wedding and come back to file for him. And then the waiting begin… I’m hoping he’d apply for visit visa and hopefully he’s granted. That way he can also be visiting.

Do you think there are other options we can explore??

Have you been DQ?
What's your PD?

As much as I understand the wait is long (trust me I personally know.) there are a few things to consider
Note that proving you are not married is more than just deleting marriage certificate. Also know that traditional marriage counts as marriage even if it doesn't have a certificate.

If you have other documents in your married name nko? Including previous passports and previous trips.

Has your 'hubby' ever applied for a visa and filled out spouse with your details and DOB.

Before you go for your interview you'll still fill DS260 form ..there you will put details of where you've lived in the past .

Immigrant interview is still an interview oh. I still had to bring out pictures with petitioner over long period of time. They asked of everyone in the picture.

If you have children with birth certificates with both parents names?


Then if you manage to scale this, when you get the visa you'll unlikely be able to remarry your husband/wife for another 2 years and more..because you'll file for him as an LPR and prove your relationship. You will now be the sponsor that has to have tax returns and income that meets the required level to file for a spouse

It's food for thought cos it can get complex.

The person that started this thread pretty16 also waited for over 10years had 3 kids with bf and told him so they did not marry. Even with that as at 1yr post arriving in the US she had not filed for father of her kids
Maybe she can share her timeline whenever she checks this thread

Was there a reason why she wasn’t able to file for her bf 1yr after? I’m also in the same dilemma that she why I’m asking. Kindly clarify if you know please.

What do you mean by odd? If I know I wouldn't come here to ask? I'm a yoruba & administering rob is one of the ways they use in this case. So if I'm asking its because I want to be enlighten

I totally agree with her. Please don’t listen to this our aged yoruba mothers. As long as your little one is farting and peeing well, he/she is perfectly fine. Exclusive babies go on for days without pooing so it’s not out of place. There’s no need doing anything to force the poo out. May the Almighty protect our little ones.

yes to airlines that have flights originating from Nigeria and also have offices here.


Ohhh thanks. I actually tried travelbeta but it redirected me to delta airlines official website which payment as to be made in dollar.
Delta is the only one i saw that’s going direct to her destination.. would have been nice if i can make the payment in naira, cos it will most likely be a cheaper option as compare to using a dollar card.

Hi everyone. Please my sister has been waiting on her interview notice and I’d appreciate any information I can get.
PD: May 2013
VC: F1
DQ: July 7 2020
We’ve been getting the 60 days emails for a while. I bug the NVC every time but they push it on Lagos. Has anyone had an interview scheduled in this category? I would like to have an idea of what dates the embassy might be in the interview scheduling. Thank you.

Hi… we’re also in the waiting line, but f2a. The last tome any f category was scheduled an interview was in October 2022 and they currently stopped at DQ Mrch 23rd 2020. The wait is really frustrating but what can one do? We’re looking forward to the President’s executive order for no interviews for f categories from April, even tho its an uncertainty. It still gives me hope.

And yes, I’ve also gotten my 16th 60days email sad

I understand jawe, my people. We were not informed. We kept everything close to our chests cos we were afraid of "village people" hearing.

....What if she claims single? That's she unmarried. She will be in F1, abi? She can drop her child with one of her brothers.

When she gets over there and gets her PR, she can come back for her family?

How long will it take her to bring in her child and her husband?

How risky is that?

.....Thank you guys for the wonderful inputs. I wished I knew these things 3 months ago.


She can actually go with her child as follow to join.

Please does anyone know of any officer in the passport officer, and how much it will cost to obtain a new passport, asking for a friend though

Hi, You don't need to know any passport officer to obtain a new passport. Its pretty straightforward when you diy. Visit the NIS website, complete your registration, make payment, print and get all documents ready and proceed to servicom unit in Ikoyi or Ikeja if you're in Lagos.

This diy will save you lots of money... Cheers

Thanks very much for this, I have all, I got my nin slip in 2014, my problem is getting somebody as the guarantor. I'm new in my area, I came here for service.

Can I use a fellow corp member's voters card as guarantor?

Voters card is not accepted. Driver's licence or national I'd card plus international passport.

Hello sir, after reading your comment I have successfully applied online for 32 page standard passport for 17k. I have all the requirements except "for guarantor form signed by Commissioner of oath".
I don't have any body to use as guarantor.

My location is abeokuta, however I went through some messages now and it seems that most people here go to Lagos passport office cos is faster.

My question is what do you advise i do now, should I discard the registration and go to Lagos Office and start afresh or should I go to abeokuta office tomorrow with the documents I have? I haven't paid yet.

A friend told me that I will still bribe them no matter what. And also there are no booklets there for now.

I need advice please mimilyrics Rayhanna bennymine Exmay02 Tee24 A2J and other experienced people help

If you want to use Lagos, Ikoyi and Ikeja precisely you can only get the enhanced passport which is 25000 plus 1000 service charge. The process is very easy and straightforward once you have all your documents. Make payment, get all documents ready and proceed to Ikoyi passport office. Ask of servicom, and you can continue from there. For the guarantor, you can get anyone who has drivers license or national I'd card and a valid international passport.


You also need to get NIN slip to proceed with the enhanced passport. I hope this helps

if you finished from Lasu in the 1990 & 2000, years of bababunmi, akesode, leigh & Hussein. Nothing, i mean nothing can shake you in this life. The school has really changed and am a proud alumni. i remeber vividly the academic and non-academic staff protests during leigh and husseins regime, see Juju placed allover the administrative buildings, i can still remeber someone throw a stone at hussein and it met him square on the forehead, or the different cult hits in broad daylight at the school ojo front gate. The tunde salau brutal macheting and all the saga that followed after. i remeber vividly the fall of damilola, i was on campus not too far when damoche fell at the gate. That school made me.

Hmmmm!! I can totally relate to all these. If you graduate from Lasu during this period, nothing fit shake you, you go fit absorb anything wey dey come ur way. What did we not see, issit the vandal of vc's car ni? .... Chaii. I can also remember the Damoche guy at second gate just after a match at the sport centre. Even the yellow agbero guy wey dey second gate. Truly Lasu is changed

Hello ma'am, I personally do not think you are worrying unnecessarily, it's better to know if there's anything wrong and get help if need be. However, does he make eye contact when you're talking to him? Does he look at the directions of things you point to him?
