You would get it this week.
But I think you should check TLS someone here did even though tracking was on 3/6 and it was ready for collection.
If you live in Abuja, give it a try.

joyivro:
Thanks so much they have mailed me,going to collect tomorrow praying for the best.

I applied same day too in Abuja, priority application. Deadline is 4th Oct, it's very annoying.

Elmariachi2017:
Biometrics done on the 6th of September and no word after my application transferred to DMC Sheffield 10th September. Priority visa

Elmariachi2017:
How did U track your application

Phayie:
My mom has the new marriage certificate, original birth certificate and death certificate of my father.




How did you prove your relationship with your mum, since you have different surname?
You need to have faith but the home office might feel your mum may not have direct access to the account

Nerobliss:
Please how long does it takes to get response from the embassy. I applied for emergency appointment 3 days ago. No response yet. Thanks

JBL17:
Just go vacation somewhere since you don't have immigrant intent.why stress your self.




My experience at the US embassy was very pathetic. I've been to the US once and I spent just 3 weeks. And I've renewed my visa once via Dropbox. But k decided to renew my visa this by appearing for the interview with my who was once denied a visa before we got married.
Vo: Why are you going to the USA?
Me & Wifey: Vacation and Tourism
VO: Where do you work?
Me: i work at so so so and s as so and so.
Wifey: I too work at so so as so so so.
Vo: How long have you been married?
Me & Wifey : We've been married for so and so. (before the appointment we already sent a scanned copy of our marriage certificate as requested by ustraveldocs for profile update)
VO: Have you traveled out of Nigeria before?
Me: Yes. I was in the USA four years ago for vacation and spent just 3 hours weeks.( All the while my old passport where my valid visa is was still with me.)
Wifey: for me I haven't. I was denied a tourist visa two years ago.
Vo: do you have kids?
Me: No. We decided not to have kids for now.
Vo:smile. I saw that even before you told me.
Vo: typed for about 3 minutes. Sorry you are not qualified. You don't have enough ties.
Me: Wow! What about my current visa? Does it mean my visa has been canceled or revoked?
Vo : Well, I believe it has expired, if it hasn't expired, no need to renew it.
Me: I came for the interview with my wife because my travel date is just 2 weeks after the expiration.
Vo : Seems shocked or worried. But the decision to refuse has been made.
Out of high respect for the Embassy and the Vo, i smiled and walked out peacefully.
When I got home I called their customer service and the operator asked if the visa was canceled or revoked, i said No. He said I can still use Dropbox but I shouldn't add my wife to the dependant. I tried using Dropbox, but as usual you have to answer some questions about previous visa and denial. Because I have to be truthful in my answers, i answered that my last interview resulted in a denial. Then I was redirected to schedule an interview. Confused, i called the customer service again. I was told to see the requirements for dropbox on their website. In my cgi profile, i noticed that the status of my application case was "escalated." At the end, I got just a generic email. More confused, i skype ustraveldocs and confirm the current status of my visa. I was told that I can still travel with my current visa that is expiring in 2 months. I don't want to take the risk and end up been questioned by the CBP about my previous denial.

Please sorry house for my lengthy explanation. I feel better after sharing my thoughts with you friends. I will appreciate your thoughts on this.
Thanks
