my fiancé is also checking it out over there. Let me tell him not to try it again. This whole thing is so tiring and frustrating. God help us

You don’t have to cancel your date and wait for a date to pop up before you reschedule, there’s the cancel option and there’s the reschedule option on your portal

Last I checked which was around 2 today,the 23rd of dec is the only available day and that’s if it’s not picked before Friday.
I have a question. Is it possible to see available dates after already scheduling an interview date?

Also did you already have an interview date when you checked and saw 23rd of December?

Yes it is,click on the reschedule appointment Link and it’ll bring out the calendar,but you cannot check more than 3 times in 24 hours as well,it’s how I’ve been tracking the dates to see if I can get an earlier one,
And Yes,I have a date for November but I just want an earlier date.

Oh ok get it now. You won't see dates on the dashboard until you click on the reschedule appointment link. Right? However for those who are yet to schedule, they get to see the first available date on the dashboard (lower left part of the dashboard) without the need to click on the schedule appointment link.

The advantage is that they don't have any limit on the number of times they can view the dashboard unlike in your case where you have a limit of 3 times in 24 hours.

Yes I think so,but I think it’s like that for me cos I always use my phone to check the cgi page,the last time I used a computer,It was there on the lower left part of the dashboard.

100! I saw an earlier interview calendar on the left side of my dashboard immediately after login, then I went for it. So it's possible.

Hello guys, awesome job in keeping the page alive,
A quick one, We got a RFE requesting for further evidence, please, does anyone understand what they mean by “evidence of financial support”? I am confused as to how who should provide the financial support and will letter to this effect suffice or they need bank statements? @legictBachelor and other gurus, your input is highly welcomed. Thanks �

So why didn’t you guys plan your wedding after then?
So why are you getting married in the us?
Share with me your wedding plans?
Share with me your wedding plans? Do you guys have a tentative plan at hand?if yes,do you mind sharing please

How did you answer these questions ma’am?

Because now I’m getting paranoid,so cos of family pressure and all,we had to do our traditional engagement and my fiancée had to come to Nigeria in March and it was a very big one to be honest,it went from just inviting family members only to more than 1000 people coming and we were very specific about it even in the invitation that it was just traditional engagement but people were printing ‘happy married life’ souvenirs here and there and there was nothing we could do about it,we made sure that no bride price was paid as well so my question is what do you think I should do and would a certificate of bachelorhood help my case?

1. We wanted being together immediately after our wedding. So get married here n he over there wasn't a choice.

2. I think my answer to 1 explains this.

3 we decided to do this by the lake, so I mentioned the venue.

4. Yes we do have. His sister is planning all of that. Though I'm taking my wedding dress from here.

Just be calm

would like to know, was there an invitation card to that effect?if there is none,I believe u are safe.Else, pls delete post of IV cards. Comments from people may not be considered. #reallyDontKnowWhatTheseVOMayBeLookingOutFor.

Mine was introduction, even on the album twas happy introduction. What my baby posted too was happy introduction to us. But alot of comments were "happy married life to you guys". "Wow, u didn't invite us" " u guys ended up together" many more like that.

I wish you God's favour and pls try to get the Bachelor's certificate though.

Thanks so much @anjiee for the Transcript. Can you tell us how you resolved the change of passport number issue? Did you fill a new DS160 or did you email ustraveldocs or did you just go for the interview with both passports?


I didn't fill a new one, went like that. I had call and sent mail earlier, was told nothing could be done

so I guess since the old passport number reflected on the new one, I was good to go.

Thanks much for everything.

We clearly stated on the invitation card that it was a traditional engagement ceremony and nothing else.

Its surprising they are requesting for evidence of financial support now. I thought they usually request for such during the interview stage.

Well since they asked, I think your fiance can fill the form i134 and attach relevant documents (like bank statement, pay stubs, tax returns, employmwnt letter, etc) along with it. If she doesnt make up to 125% if the poverty level then she'll also need a cosponsor.

Expenses you guys have made on each other can help too

Yes....it is surprising that they want evidence of financial support before the interview......especially that one can use a joint sponsor in case the petitioner can't meet the poverty guidelines.

I remember on the K1 application form, the petitioner was required to put details of current and past work history......are they using that to estimate if the petitioner falls below the poverty line? I think they are focusing more on this public charge stuff.

Yeah I think it has to do with this Public Charge. Although I had thought the courts had kept it on hold for now.

Hello All,

Does anyone have a contact at the NPC office in Surulere, Lagos that he/she can recommend?

There's an urgent need to get an NPC Attestation Letter.

Thank you!

Seriously, i am surprised and confused at same time, my fiancée doesn’t make up the 125% in her current job.. she was suggesting her mom writes a letter of sponsorship and notarized it. Do you think that will serve as evidence of sponsorship’ since it’s more like an oat that she will be our sponsor ? Or which form will she fill as sponsor

I suggest you should start a thread about your RFE on visa journey. You will likely have people who's gotten similar RFEs as yours.....and you'll get plenty of suggestions there.

It is decent and enough for to sponsor 1 person, maybe 2, it also depends if your fiancee has kids on her own, more people she needs to support, less or not enough money she has for to be your sponsor.
