[samuel75 1]

I went for my cr1 interview today. the co asked me the following questions who is calling you. I told her. she said how did u meet I told her. she asked for more pictures and she checked it all and ask the visits for it pictures whether it was the first visits or second I told. she said everything looks good just tell your wife to look for a joint sponsor to sign the affidavits of support then take it to this collection centre for your visa. when she saw the worriness on my face she said u don't need another interview just get the papers and submit it to the collection centre everything looks good. then she gave me a paper to show my wife on how to pay for my green card. pls everyone if I take the joint sponsor to the address how long before I get my visa at hand. if u have been in this situation let me know your reviews on it. I had my interview at the nigeria embassy in Lagos. thanks

If the joint sponsor qualifies comfortably, and that is the only issue, the visa should be issued within a month of them getting all the forms.

to be qualified she needs enough income and/or assets and be a citizen or legal resident living in the USA.

Depends how much her retirement is for her household plus you. Because its retirement the CO may reject it if its minimal amount seeing this is the money she is living off of.

Also her age matters also. Many embassies will not take an elderly person since this is a 10 year commitment and this is retirement money.

For Lagos they don't take long after you submit the proper documents and they verity them 2 to 4 weeks.

Make sure your MIL explains why she doesn't file taxes an has proof of her US citizenship, LPR status or Naturalization.

@ samuuel75, I was in the same line with you, on my interview day the co gave me a white paper for green card said she dont want me to come to the embassy again but i should look for a joint sponsor and submit it to the location center circle that visa would be ready in 2 weeks after getting it. But i will like to know if the joint sponsor send you the original paper or scan it to you to submit at dhl office ?
