Firstly, we are yet to attain normalcy as regards appointment scheduling and handling at the Lagos embassy. I look forward to the day when interviews can be strictly by appointment. In other words, you have an appointment for 9a.m and you can be there at 8.30a.m and not have to struggle to get in.
I cannot help but envy countries that have figured this out and I cannot help but ponder on the mitigating factors that prevent same orderliness occurring at the Lagos embassy. Too many applicants? Too many unruly people?? Too little motivation to make this work?? What really could be the issue why a simple orderly method cannot be instituted and (wait for it…) maintained? Sometimes I tend to liken this to the difference between the two legs of the trip from U.S to Nigeria. The first leg U.S – Europe goes smoothly and then Europe-Nigeria……Hello!!!!!!! Call me paranoid or cynical but suddenly the planes don’t seem too nice and the cabin crew lose their smiles... read complete review

Segun's interview today was mostly a lot of waiting. He said once he was finally called after waiting almost 6 hours the interview was fast. His CO was a woman and she first asked for his paperwork. He also gave her the file I had prepared. Then she asked some basic information about me from it such as my name, DOB, where I work, what type of work I do. He said the CO would look at the papers then ask a question from them. She then asked some questions about his son who was not present(we did not intend to get his son a visa today but he was included per instructions). She asked him to hand over his passport, birth certificate, police report and medical results. He gave her everything except the medical results but he did give her the receipt where he had taken his medical. On it was the date when the results would be available. She told him he should return within 2 weeks after the medical results are in to have his visa issued. She gave him an appointment date and a form that would a... read complete review

Unraveling the contents of packets 3 and 4 (P3, P4): The Lagos Embassy
What follows is a summary of the information received by me from my fiancée who actually eyeballed the so-called packets P3 and P4 and info below is based on my phone conversation with her regarding said packets.
Firstly there is no “packet” as such. There are sheets of paper and forms stapled together. There is no returning of P3 and collecting of P4 as may obtain in other embassies. You receive P3 and P4 together and are expected to
“return” P3 on the day of your interview.
______________________________________________________________________________
P4 is actually the first page of the “packet” and contains, in the main, your interview date
P3 consists of the following:
•Instructions on how to fill DS156 and DS156K forms
•Page that mentions all the documents you would need (where applicable)- documents incl... read complete review

Part One of the Review: NVC >>>Embassy>>>>Packets>>>Getting Interview Date
This reply is based on a process in evolution. I intend to write a detailed account of this process that hopefully will stay in the Nigeria Embassy review section for awhile. It has certainly taken a lot of energy trying to sift out information where they maybe in previous threads. Other site members- Taye500, Neya, Sercontigo, Alyce- to mention a few have been very helpful and i thank them. If you are like me and you obsess over “things going according to plan” you are welcome to read through this review and return for updates. If you are more spontaneous, you may find this read a bit boring………….
My timeline also explains further. This is what i have observed from our own process. NVC often turns the case files around very quickly once received from USCIS (sometimes the very next day). NVC sent my files to Lagos (presumably on 9/7/2006). This information was received b... read complete review
