my mother in law was denied a visitor visa on tuesday how do i appeal the decision? our wedding is in 3 weeks and we want her to be there and share withus.

I'd advise you to pack light. Makes it easier to keep track & transport stuff. Make sure you check your luggage # and weight limits. You can buy anything you need there, but anything that you are very particular about (brand of condoms, lotion, or tampons) you should bring it. I've never been to Nigeria, but other countries I've been to I couldn't find tampons if my life depended on it, but there were many pads to choose from including Always.

Ask your SO how you will wash clothes (cleaning service, machine, etc). If they will be done by hand and line dried be sure to include at least one outfit that will dry quickly.

first of all i wish you could pack me so i can see my sweety again lol

no for real you should pack lightly because the weight limit is like 20 kg i think as to apposed our 50lbs in the states

ask your so if you guys will be taking another plain to another village or are u staying in lagos?

well be sure to pack warm clothing, pack you some bug spray, if you have allergies pack some medicine for allergies because the air pollution, as for being able to get anything there they donot have walmarts so just keep in mind you will most likely be buying from cornere stores

if you area big snacker of pringles word to the wise take them with you they sell them there for 4usd and 6usd at the airport.

but as far as clothes bring a clothes bag to keep your dirty clothes oh yeah you might want to take some clothes pins to leave withthe family they might appreciate them depending if they do their own laundry or not.

i went for 23 day and i packed an outfit a day and that was too much

depwnding how lonmg u staying i should have only packed liker 10 outfits and washed and wore again lol

bring some comfortable shoes because if you dont have your own transportation you will have to walk or be waiting for public transportation

oh be sure to take an adapter for charging your electronics. also word to the wise dont use your phone there get a chip from there and have your family call or text you own because i got hit with a 450 usd bill for just tect messages and calls that were ring although i didnt answer .

you can email me at zbaby70@hotmail.com

if you have specific questions i might can handle

when i went we stayed in lagos for a weeka nd then flew to sapele

oh have fun

Hi everyone!!!

So, I have been seeing these kinds of lists on other forums and I thought we didn't have one so I made one I just thought it would be a nice way for us to keep track of where everyone is at in the process. Plus, I was bored

As meticulous as I am, I am sure I am missing someone or something is wrong. All the info I got was what I got off the VJ timelines. I only included people who have logged onto VJ since September and have timelines (no timeline, no place on the list). As updates get made I will add/change the list as appropriate.

If something is wrong please PM me and I will make the changes.

now what do we do.

I am having a hard time being a newbie here in the states, from being very busy in my country to being here doing nothing i also assume it is worse for men.... so tell me how have you'all managed to cope during this long waiting period that seemingly never ends?

I have been here since June.

We are married now and just filled the AOS/EAD/AP.

He goes to work daily while i sit here watching movies and doing nothing... its hard especially for someone who previously had a busy schedule.

Well like you said thank god you two are waiting together and not seperated.

It will get better. have you applied for the work permit?

Im new to this process my fiance is in NIgeria and im in Dallas Texas. We are completing the cover letter where do we file the forms.
