We made an expedited request to the NVC and got some supporting documents from my wife’s employer. You can search for NVC expedite request on YouTube, you’ll find all the info you need there.

Congrats on getting an appointment date. I've been waiting for an appointment with the US Consulate, Lagos since September. How were you able to expedite on EB? The wait is killing...[/quote]

Hello everyone.
Just to update and encourage people here.
I just scheduled my visa appointment today and I got an appointment for 9th of March. It’s been almost one year of waiting and I’m glad we finally have an appointment. For anyone that successfully expedited their case to the embassy, please contact them, they’ll ask you to create a profile and book your appointment yourself. Just keep checking the portal until you get a date. At a point I was checking the portal every 6 hours to see if I can get an appointment. I would literally set alarm for every 6 hours and I’m glad that stage is over now. Best of luck to everyone still waiting for an appointment.

Hello everyone. I created an account just to share our own experience. My wife is a nurse but I’m the one handling most of the processes.

After waiting for an appointment for six months, we made an expedited request in August 2022 and got approval notice a week later. Our case file arrived the US consulate in Lagos at the end of August. We contacted the consulate via email (lagosiv@state.gov) and they asked us to create an account, register a profile and schedule our appointment on http://www.ustraveldocs.com/ng.

We have been trying to schedule an appointment since then but there are no appointments available. In fact I have been checking the website every six hours as advised but nothing yet. We even asked for help from agents but none has been able to help. I understand the U.S. consulate is short staffed and there’s a lot of backlog. So it’s still a waiting game for us. That’s our experience so far, hopefully we’ll get an appointment soon.

Any luck with the interview date yet?

Still waiting for an appointment. Information I got is that they are not attending to immigrant visas now.
