I have a Nigerian visa and plan to visit my fiancé soon. My visa is a 2 year visa - I’m wondering if there is an allowed extension due to covid? 

Your information is incomplete and folks maybe having a hard time understanding your question.

 

Your profile indicates that you have CR1/IR1 Visa.  Those expire 180 days after issue or the medical whichever occurs first.   Then you say Fiance.  That type of visa is for a spouse (Married).

 

If you have a two year (visitors and 24 months IS NORMAL for NIGERIA and other high fraud countries) visa you must enter the US prior the expiration of the visa.   You are able to apply for a new visa after that expires.  https://www.ustraveldocs.com/ng/ng-niv-visarenewinfo.html
