Today at about 5pm a USPS post man drop off my Social Security Card. Praise the Lord.

2021-06-12: POE
I was admitted at the US CBP and a 1year validity of my visa was stamped on my passport. There were just 2 questions:
1. Your wife’s name is hmmmmm?
2. What part of US will you be residing?
3. What’s the address?
4. The zip code?
Answered all and also informed the officer that I am qualified for 10 years green card because my marriage is 2 years now. Although, my interview was 2 months before my marriage clocked 2yrs. So, I needed to convert my CR1 visa to IR1 category. The officer looked at my face and said okay. As a matter of fact, I even showed him a written application for my request and attached a photocopy of my marriage certificate with it. I ensured he sighted my original marriage certificate as well. Finally, he stamped ADMITTED but wrote CR1 on my passport. He therefore returned the written application back to me. He said you are welcome to America. Goodluck.

2021-04-14: VISA APPROVED
Your visa has been printed. Depending on local procedures at the location where you were interviewed, your visa will be mailed or available for pickup soon. If there are further questions, or if we need updated contact information, you will be contacted.
For more information, please visit TRAVEL.STATE.GOV.

2021-04-09: PASSPORT SUBMITTED @ADHL office. Now waiting.

2021-04-08: EMBASSY REQUEST:
Received an email from the embassy to submit my Passport. I guess something good is on the way. Praise the Lord.

2021-04-01: SUBMISSION AT DHL OFFICE:
The required AOS, 2020 Tax Return filing and W2 of the new joint Sponsor were submitted.

2021-03-10: INTERVIEW:
The interview went well and the CO asked questions like:
Where did you meet your spouse,
Who introduced you to each other?
Do you have any other photos apart from pictures taken few minutes after wedding?
Are you friendly with your wife’s children?
Convince me if truly you know your wife very well.
What’s your spouse most favourite food?
Does she watch TV?

Finally he asked for 2020 W2 /IRS Tax filing for spouse and the joint sponsor. They were produced but the CO said I will need to get another joint sponsor to submit a new AOS form, w2 and IRS tax transcript with sufficient amount.
As a result, Visa Refused till I produce another Qualified Joint Sponsor at no other cost. All documents to be submitted at the DHL office.

2020-12-31 : I finally booked an appointment with the medical facility for the 28th of January, 2021. The fee altogether is said to be N150,000 or a little less. I will update how much it is in total when I am done.

2020-01-26: Interview at the Embassy earlier scheduled for 2020-02-09 has been rescheduled to 2020-03-10

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa
Event Description
Review Date : April 6, 2021
Embassy Review : The interview was not that easy because the CO has no much time dealing with cases. He was in a hurry and won’t even check other documents of the new wage of my JOINT SPONSOR which shows her current new wages upon which we were DQ by the NVC. He went straight to check the Tax Return which reflects her old wages but declined to see other documents that show she is qualified.

In my assessment the interview wasn’t bad since the refusal wasn’t barred. The CO was very polite in his approach and gave an assurance that his decision wasn’t a bad one since I only need a new qualified joint sponsor whose W2 and tax transcript shows his wages.
Rating : Good

It’s been 90 days after NVC sent a message that I am DOCUMENTARILY QUALIFIED but no email or interview letter has been sent to me. What could be causing the delay pls? When am I likely to get to get an interview appointment?
Evetskomplitz on 2020-12-22 said:
I finally found answer to the above questions guys. The Case Completed date is the final date shown when you track your date of DQ on NVC timeframes. I finally have my appointment date and thanks to God for this.

Dear Mike, Kindly clarify this for me ,on your timeline your case was completed at 22/12/2020.You have also said the date you receive DQ is when your date is completed. Kindly explain the difference for me

Evetskomplitz on 2020-12-23 said:
Dear Kofi, I finally submit my IV application, AOS and all Civil Documents on 6th September and on 21st Sept I received a message that I am documentarily qualified (DQ). The point is that upon the receipt of DQ, your 60-90 days of processing time by NVC starts to count and once your matter is completed NVC sends you an email with the date case was completed and which in my case is exactly the date as shown on the tracking on NVC TIMEFRAMES WEBSITE ( https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/nvc-timeframes.html ). However, some people misunderstood the date of DQ as the date for completion but it’s not. On my Timeline and in my previous comment, I said the date I received my letter of interview is the date is 12/22/2020 and not the date I received my DQ. On 09/21/2020 I received my DQ which means NVC is satisfied with the documents I have submitted and not that my case has been completed.

I finally schedule a medical examination appointment with one of the two approved facilities in Lagos and when I asked about the fee I was told it’s 150k or a little less for the total fee.

Just recvd my DQ on the 24th of Feb. When do you think I will given IL...when was your DQ and when did you receive message for IL and when was the actual interview. Thanks
Evetskomplitz on 2021-04-06 said:
My DQ was 21st September 2020 and received an NVC letter of interview from NVC exactly 90 days from the date I was said to be Documentarily Qualified. You should receive your interview letter on or before the 24th of May. You can only contact them after the 90 days had past. I was worried why my was delayed till this 90 days but the rule says after you are DQ, your will receive your letter of interview not later than 90 days after DQ. So, be patient your interview is coming soon.
Chikae on 2021-04-06 said:
Amen.God is good

*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.
