Affidavit of support from my husband. I thought mine alone was sufficient since I am a medical doctor, but they also requested that of my husband. Also, the embassy staff rejected the birth certificate my mother submitted and ordered she get a new one from the National Population Center (NPC). Both documents were submitted alongside her passport in January.

Thank you so much for the info. Anyway to contact the embassy to at least get an update?

Hello group, My mother went for her IR5 (Mother of US Citizen) interview on Jan 8th, 2024, and was refused due to some missing documents, which we promptly sent the embassy by January 24th, 2024. The visa status was updated on January 29th and is still undergoing administrative processing. This occurred in the US Embassy in Lagos, Nigeria. How long is the typical wait time for administrative processing and is there any way to speed up the process? The embassy currently has her passport and no update since January. Also, can you contact the embassy for an update on the timeline?

Hello, my mom went for her immigrant visa interview on January 8th, 2024 at the Lagos Embassy and couldn't get her IR5 Visa (Mother of a US Citizen) because her birth certificate wasn't certified and my husband didn't send her affidavit of support. We were informed to send both forms with her passport via the DHL dropbox which we promptly submitted by January 24th, 2024. As of today April 28th, 2024 there is no correspondence from the embassy regarding the visa application Also, they still have her passport with them since January 24th. How long is typical for administrative processing? What options do I have to get an update on the application and get her passport back? I would appreciate any advice you can offer.
