I'm so frustrated with contacting Lagos consulate with no response. So my initial passport is going to expire next year 'March' which automatically cannot be used for the K1 visa. So i had to renew the passport and i currently have a new passport number.

However, i'm currently trying to book an appointment date but with no progress because the system is still updated with the old passport number. The field cannot be edited for chnage, so i sent them an email and i nwas told to call or chat live with an agent. But i cant even reach them.

I really need to get an appointment date ASAP and i need to know if i should bring both passport for the interview.

Please Help!!!!!!
