I don’t understand what they mean by that ties

I think if one has been to those terrorist countries and maybe they are muslims and all. Honestly, I cant say for sure what he meant by that.

Hello Guys,

 

I just called a call from the Embassy in Lagos that my interview has been rescheduled for tomorrow.

Asked why and they said they have so many people for the 4th, and that they need to quickly interview few of us.

I asked, are they issuing immigrant visa to people, and he said yes, that it's those that have ties, and criminal background information that they ain't giving. 

 

I also asked that a letter be sent to me in respect to the new date, he said when I get there, I'll see my name on the list and the time is still 8:30am.

 

He said, since I'm in Ikoyi it wont be an issue to come over and I told him I have a meeting at work.

I also asked about the public charge form, but hes explanation wasnt too good. 

 

He said get a copy of your employment letter to show you work and all.

 

Prayers up guys. 

 

Let's sort this out once and for all, my man is going to be happy its finally coming to an end.

 

Regards,

This is great news, all the best honey... thanks for the information 💋. You're a darling

That doesn't sound correct..........I hope you are correct, but I thought the ban ceased all immigrant visas.

Why isn’t that correct? Basically what she is describing is the waiver process when they conduct extra background checks to ensure the person doesn’t have terrorist ties or a criminal background.

To my knowledge, there have no waivers approved in Nigeria.....to my knowledge, there have no immigrant visas issued since the ban started.  Hopefully, we can get more clarification.

Pls are they really asking for 5540 form from K1? I'm lost. Pls can you explain what it entails.

It's the New public charge form. You can search for it on Visa journey. Most embassies are beginning to request for it.
