Consulate Review: Ghana
Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa
Event Description
Review Date : March 22, 2021
Embassy Review : Very impressive experience at the consulate. The whole process, plus the waiting time lasted for about 15min. Both the lady at step 1 and the CO at step 2 were very friendly.

Documents submitted: Original birth, marriage, and police certificates, passport photo

Documents brought but never submitted (not asked for): Original Affidavit of Support; email, phone, social media logs

Questions:
(a) I see you have a non-Ghanaian passport, where were you born and what are you doing in Ghana?
(b) You have several police certificates, help me connect the dots, where did you reside in first? She retained my original Ghanaian passport since I had to retake a new one and had not uploaded to the CEAC site.
(c) Where did you meet your spouse?
(d) How did your relationship progress from the time you met up to now?
(e) What does your spouse do?
(f) I see you have a joint sponsor, tell me bout him?
(g) Have you travelled outside Ghana within the last 2 week, and were you in Ghana during the lockdown?

Magic word: Your visa is approved. I thank you for your patience (this was very kind of the CO, since my appointment was cancelled 3 times), and good luck with your marriage.

She then handed over the domestic violence document, asked me to read the first 2 paragraph. Also, the DHL passport/visa collection sheet!
Rating : Very Good

Hi, Did you file form I-129 to get a fast approval? M
blank avatar Manuar on 2019-10-25 said:
No I did not. I suppose they have started processing November 2018 cases. From your TL, yours should be approved anytime now.

Our interviewed date was rescheduled from 26.03.2020 to 13.08.2020, due to the pandemic. Hopefully it stays that way.

When you send DHL the email as instructed, be sure to followup with a phone call. They claimed not to receive my first email.

Hello please i am quite lost at the NVC stage and would really appreciate you help. gAfter you paid for the IV and AOS fee, did you fill out the forms and uploaded it to the CAEC website or you kept it and mailed it please. i am a bit confused if you can help me please.do i complete the form- scan it and upload it with my tax info or do i keep it and mail it with the package?
blank avatar Manuar on 2021-03-25 said:
I completed the I-864 electronically, printed it, signed, and scanned as per the given guidelines and uploaded it. Once you upload it, the status would change to submitted, then accepted with a green check mark. I also included the tax returns, W2s, and Proof of US domicile. I did the same for all the civil documents
