Thanks for the reply. I was wondering how long things have taken in the past?? I see most ppl get their visa in about 1 week, according to their timelines.

Wife tells me last time she was on hold for an hour before she got an answer to her question. at 2.40 euro/minute I think she'll wait for the 2 week mark before she calls with questions.

It is worrying, though...

If 2weeks is the norm with your consulate then wait otherwise I will call just to be sure all is well.

Citizenship next step!

Thanks so much, everyone, for all your congrats! we are absolutely ecstatic! Here are the details, as promised: (I'll post in the Consulate review section later)

Consulate & Interview Review:

We got there at about 6:20 a.m. on Jan. 26th and there was already a long queue outside.

At around 6:45, the line started moving. I was able to enter the sitting area and wait with my husband together with all the other visa applicants (immigrant and non-immigrant alike).

When the applicants were called to go through security and enter the Embassy, I was asked to please leave. I went inside the Embassy via the ACS (American Citizens Services) entrance and waited for my husband to finish (while sitting in the air conditioned lobby :)

I waited about 3 hours before he came out and found me in the lobby. He had a big smile on his face and gave me a thumbs-up sign!

This is his review:

He was interviewed by a young, blonde, white American male CO with sideburns and a mustache.

CO: who is petitioning for u?

Seyi: My wife - Deborah......

CO: Where does she live?

Seyi: (tells him my exact address and City/State)

CO: What does she do for a living?

Seyi: Computers

CO: Has she ever been married before?

Seyi: Yes

CO: Have you ever been married before?

Seyi: No

CO: When did you meet?

Seyi: June 2008

CO: How did you meet?

Seyi: Through a mutual friend.

CO: Tell me more.

Seyi: My best friend and business partner has a sister that lives in New York and the sister met my wife through work. They've been friends for several years now.

CO: Does your wife have kids? How many? What are their names and ages?

Seyi: (Gives the correct answer)

CO: How old is your wife?

Seyi: (tells him my age)

CO: How old are you?

Seyi: (tells him his age)

CO: Do you plan to have kids?

Seyi: Yes. She's being treated by a fertility doctor who assured us that she can still have a child. I have a letter from the doctor confirming what I'm saying. Would you like to see it?

CO: (doesn't answer; just types something into computer)

CO: How many times has your wife been to Nigeria?

Seyi: Yesterday made the number of trips 6 times and she's outside right now waiting for me in the Lagos heat (hubby didn't know that I managed to get into the air conditioned lobby!)

CO: Surprised, says "6 times???"

Seyi: (nods head)

CO: (types some more stuff into the computer)

CO then walks away for a minute and then comes back with a letter that he hands to Seyi that states that he can pick up his visa next week on Feb. 2nd at the VFS Global office in Lekki. The CO then returned all the original documents to my husband without even being asked (which were already bundled together with a rubber band around them). The whole interview didn't take more than 5 minutes.

By the way, we brought about 12 inches thick worth of paperwork and over 400 photos. He didn't ask to see anything!

Congrats again, Deb! Neat!

Congrats to Toni_sh, atst for their successful interview :dance: :dance: :dance:

If 2weeks is the norm with your consulate then wait otherwise I will call just to be sure all is well.

I called and bit the bullet on the cost. I think it cost me about $30 total.

The operator was very helpful in assisting and forwarding our inquiry to the consulate. She took down my email and phone and said they will call with a response.

She even gave me the email address of the US consulate with special instructions to get immidate attention. I emailed the consulate and had a response in 29 minutes. Daniel Rooney (the ambassador) and his crew are on the ball!

simple and succinct response:

"Ms. kayo_michael issued immigrant visa was mailed to her today."

I don't know why it took them so long to mail the darn thing out, but at least we can rest now knowing it's in the mail.
