Pls guys they sent me to provide my birth certificate, they didn't collect from the one of local government. Which one can I provide since I was born in 198s.

What about the NPC one?

Didn't you get one done there?

I don't have that. I went there before coming to US but I was told it can only be given to people born in 199s.

I don't know may be they will accept affidavit of birth certificate if I do that.

The highlighted statement is not true.

I know people who were born before the 90s that still were able to get the NPC one because they claimed that they couldn't find the copy of their birth certificate.

Now if you have the affidavit of birth certificate then try sending them a copy of that and see how they respond.

Oh.....that's for your AOS?

If you were born in the 1980's you can get an attestation letter from the NPC.

I know you get get it by proxy. Someone can go to the NPC office in Babs Animashaun, Surulere to get it for you.

@legitbachelor @sharpman,@capello

Is it okay to take copies of the affidavit of support with me to the interview or only originals are accepted.the embassy sent packet 4 to us instead of 3 and it says there that scanned or photocopies are also acceptable and my fiancée is dwelling on that even tho I’m paranoid.am I good with copies as well?
Yes it is okay to take a scanned copy as long as it is signed by your fiance.

Yes bro, I and my fiancée thought about that and did our calculations, but waiting until I hear from the embassy or see “Ready” on CEAC website might lead to me getting February dates, which I don’t think will be good for me because our petition will expire on the 26th of January. I just have to find a date ASAP given the recent development I’m hearing here. I have paid the visa application fee today. Just waiting until tomorrow to see if I can find a date in January. What do you think?
There's nothing wrong with getting a February Date. The most important thing is that you get a date before the petition expires. But if you want to get a date earlier that's fine. Just note that once you get your visa, you have a deadline to leave Nigeria to the States (around 5 months deadline or so) and the moment you touch down in the States, you have a deadline to get married and fill the AOS form (3 months). If you factor all that in your calculation, then you are fine.

You'll need to get the NPC Attestation Letter (and Affidavit of Birth) in addition to any other document you want to submit.

I was born in the 80s and had to get NPC Attestation which I submitted along with a short Hospital Birth Certificate which I had previously. I didn't get any RFIE on my AOS application. If I had submitted only the short Hospital Birth Certificate I had earlier, perhaps I would have gotten an RFIE.

The person doing the attestation for you can ask them at the NPC office about the affidavit from the court.

At NPC, they will do both for you. Affidavit & letter of attestation.

There is a price for urgent request.

The letter of attestation can be legalized by the ministry of foreign affairs, Abuja. ( not sure if it is required in this case).

No need to do any legalization with the ministry of Foreign Affairs as far as K1 Visa process is concerned.

@nextlevel2222,

It will cost you between 8k-10k at the NPC office in Lagos, depending on how fast you want to get it.

You will get both the Attestation Letter (from NPC) and the Affidavit (from the High Court).

I will send you a mail.

Cheers.

Please house I need ur assistance. Last year I applied for usa tourist visa and for my ds160 form I stated I was married, but I'm not (I was just with my ex girlfriend then n always refer to her as my wife) well, I was denied visa then, now come 2019 almost a year later I'm trying to do fiance visa with my US girlfriend. So I'm wondering what will happen when I'm asked if I was married? Will that one from last year come up, what should I do, some said I should get divorce papers? Some say use death case, and some said I should said never married that the old visa application last year has been wiped out and they won't see it again after 6 months, please i don't know what to do.. Advice please, anyone with good suggestions? Thanks

Lol.

1. Your old application is still there.....it can never be wiped out and all the info you filled will come up including your married status.

2. If you submit any counterfeit (fake) document for divorce or death they WILL 'catch' you and that's automatic life ban.

3. I don't have any other good suggestions except that you should NEVER lie on any visa application.....in this case future application.

Bro, my only suggestion is for him to come clean during his interview, he will probably be banned for 2 years or so. I don’t even understand why people forge or lie during application, it’s America we talking about.

baba from the little knowledge I have about this US immigration stuff you can't lie o, so many people lie during tourist visa application by saying they're married so that the CO will think they have a strong tie back home and won't think of remaining in the US. I just wish more elders in the forum can put you through the best way, open the link below from VJ, it's almost the same case as yours

Yes. Best option is to come clean.

Lying about marital status is just so silly.....and it is those useless agents who can't even get visas for themselves that usually advice people to fill the lie on visa applications.

I and my fiancée discussed it and we decided to choose a date in January as she’ll be back from deployment by March. We don’t want any issues with the petition expiry date. I found a date in January and scheduled one already. Hopefully before the 16th, Our package would have arrived and I would have received my packet 3, then I can go ahead with the medicals.

Please my people help me, I know my issue might have been discussed or someone might have asked similar question but have not been able to figure out and read. I have a friend in US, a citizen, we have been friends for some years. So recent we fell in love and we have decided to take a bold step for marriage, she's 4 years older than me.
I have began my international passport process it should be ready in a week time

My Questions are:
1. What is the best approach to get a visa to travel to meet her for marriage, do I stand a chance of being granted?
2. Do you advice or think she must come down to Nigeria and we get married in court first?
3. Can an invite from her grant me visa?

Please I need genuine answer and experiences from those who have been there lately. God bless
