I just recieved the STRANGEST email from our attorney this afternoon. You see, we finally got our interview date of October 27, our attorney emailed the consulate asking for a copy of the interview notification SUPPOSIDLY sent to my fiance. Their emailed response, quickly to our attorney, they never respond to me, stated that our interview was re-scheduled for October 27....Crazier yet is that I've been calling DOS and they have always maintained that no interview date has been scheduled. I saw the Lagos consulate email response to our attorney with my own eyes stating the reschedule.. Good news though, the emailed response stated that my fiance can show up with a copy of the email to his interview if he does not receive it by mail as they will not email a copy of the notification...I think this journey is seriously going to test my sanity.

Has anyone else experienced the consulate only responding to attorney inquiries and rescheduling appointment you never knew you had? :blink:

Hi there - let me just say I have had just about all of the strangest things occur at the consulate. lol... stress, stress, stress - like you I felt it was going to test my sanity too. We never received our letter and package before our interview either. When I emailed the consulate it was not answered, the lawyer firm we had did knock on their door repeatedly.

However, my husband was given the email copy of the letter to take to the interview - just as you were saying occurred with your fiance, that did not initially go well - my husband wasn't allowed in even with his email, at the gate. So just be prepared I suppose. The man at the gate said no one gets those email names and didn't let my SO in.

Yes, the consulate didn't respond to us either - or the lawyers. Eventually a Washington liaison and the Senator were listened to.

I'm not surprised they rescheduled your interview - For example my husband had 2 weeks notice prior to his interview and the medical was late by 25 days but never actually appeared though we paid for it. I'm not sure what the deal is there, I sometimes wonder if because of the state of the country that its hard for them to get things done there.

You will make it through! October is very soon! You must have excitement and a stomach full of butterflies! Hang in there and wishing the best! Keep us posted.

Take Care,
