Please do anyone know if this US govt shutdown will affect the administrative process? I had my interview on 11 dec 2018 in Naples consulate Italy and my interview wasn’t bad and they have my passport which some say it’s a good sign but I’m Nigerian who married my wife in Italy who is also Nigerian and USC. Is that also reason for AP? Please help 

thank u God bless

No they do not stop any processes. The US Immigration services are funded directly by users and not in the Congress (US tax payers).

Shutdown megathread:

 

USCIS application and petition processing is fully funded via fees, so there's no impact there.

The consulates & embassies have their own funds to pull from via the fees they collect, but not all are not all self-sufficient and may require funds appropriated by Congress. To date there's no known issues with consular services, which handle visas.

If you are applying for the IR-1/CR (spouse) and your spouse is a US citizen, and you prove that your relation is real, then you have nothing to worry about. You have every right to apply and get the visa without any issues
