Appointment was 7am got there 6am and security check starts around 6.30am we were told to open d medical right there but not to bring it out after that we enter and we sat down then they gave us number then move us to d main Building then on queue they ask for passport, date of birth both photocopy and original,medical,police report, w2, paystud, letter from company and affidavit of support, after dt fingerprint and sit to wait for urnumber to b call after dey call ur number oath time just raise ur right hand up and let him speak then u say i do. D consular was friendly but he ask me lost of questions :
1. Av u applied for for visa b4?
2. Who invited u?
3. What did u tell d consular about who invited u?
4. Where's he born?
5. When did u meet? Where and how?
6. When did u start getting romance?
7. Where does he work?
8. Why do you want to get married in US and not in Nigeria?
9. When did he propose?
10. Did both parent approve?
11. How many times has he visited and date?
12. When are u getting married?
13. Has he been married b4?
14. His Address?
15. Where will u stay ( trying to twist d question)? And many more intimate questions.
You are good well prepared. Im going to approve you i spent extra 1min with him smiling together b4 he gave me my paper. Good luck and say hi to ur future husband for me.
My advise be prepare 100% u never know u might meet this kind of consular its as if he doesn't wanna approve me but i got d upper hand wish d rest of u good luck

Timeline Comments: 4Thanks. Some consular are like dt dey got lot of questions to as.
You're welcome. Are you saying when you applied they ask a lot of questions prior to your interview?
I am asking why did the process take so long before you got to the interview.
*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
** Not all cases are transfered
