| Embassy Review : |
Hubby arrived at the Lagos Embassy at 6:30 am (based on other VJers experiences), even though his interview was not scheduled until 10:00 am. He said they called him in at 12:00 p.m., and asked for the following documents: Death Cert (I was married once before, and they asked for the death cert of my late husband to make sure I was a widow), his Birth Cert, Marriage Cert, & my 2010 income tax. He was called into the interview (white female), and she asked him only the following questions:
Who was his petitioner?
Where his wife was born, and my parents name?
She asked about my siblings
Why he was going to the states?
Why has your wife only visited once?
The CO told him he was Approved. He was finished at 1:15 p.m., and texting me with the good news. Praise God!!
All in all he said it was a good experience, even with the long wait.

Timeline Comments: None yet, be the first!
*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
