US Embassy in GHANA-where does package go?

[LauraE 0]

Hi everyone!

So I received a letter from the NVC here in the States saying that the fiance petition has been or will be sent to the US Embassy in Ghana. My question is, what part of the US Embassy in Ghana receives the petition? This is a USCIS office in the US Embassy, however on their website they have a list of forms/petitions that they deal with and I did not see I-129f on there. I want to know so that we know what office to call/e-mail to find out if the package has been received. Could anyone help me out with this? THANK YOU!!!!

Your case file goes to the Immigrant Visa Unit in Accra. USCIS is finished with the visa portion of your case unless the visa is denied and the file sent back to them. If successful obtaining a visa, you won't deal with USCIS again until your then spouse adjusts status after marriage in the USA.

Hi Laura am assuming your husband is Ghanaian and you are from the united states but there is only One US Embassy i know of which processes all the visa etc needed which is in ACCRA the capital so am assuming thats where his documents will be. Due to the number of applicants trying to get here and with only that one location there is a long delay lately so hope this helps out

Is this for a fiance visa application?

Email IVDVACCRA@state.gov with case number (ACC#), names and dobs requesting a pickup date for appointment packet. They will eventually email you back with a pickup date for packet 3 and 4 (at same time). It may take a few weeks for them to respond. They say they mail it but seldom do people get it.

You can start compiling the forms from the guides here. Ghana requires Tax Transcripts- so you can get those ordered if you dont have them yet.

Medicals and police certificate come later. Make sure the police certificate is not more then a month old (it takes two weeks to get. So its seems requesting a month before interview and picking up 2 weeks before works for people). Medicals can be done about 2 months before interview. Nothing is returned to the embassy before the interview even though some of the outdated information they give in packet 3 says so.

Calling is useless since its 'hearsay' email is best because they can go with the email printed out.

Okay, thanks! I sent an e-mail and will wait to hear back. Just want to make sure we get the packets!!

Oh, btw, do any of you know if my fiance (ghanaian) needs to bring an original copy of MY birth certificate to the interview? Thanks!

The US Citizen's birth certificate is not needed at the interview. Petitioner's citizenship status has already been adjudicated.
