They finally approved my case at Vermont Service Center. It took calling and emailing all the way up to the Associate Director who emailed me personally that I have been approved a couple of days ago.

What did your process entail after the approval? I want to be finished with NVC and Ghana consulate as soon as possible. All Accra Consulate and NVC tips are welcomed. I have almost all the paperwork required for IV & AOS ready. How much did you pay for both? I'm not very sure if it is $88 and $420 respectively or the amount has changed?. Please advice. Thank you.

Congratulations and its $88 and $230
