Have you ever asked yourself this question - what will i do when I get to the US? Let's use this period to learn a new skill or take an online course(from any accredited American college or university). Then take the certification exam when you get to the US. Let us use this period wisely!!!

My K1 application will expire on the 9th of may which Is this month and I have not been able to get an appointment date, I have written to them severely and I keep getting this automatic response, am just confused. Pls what can I do about it ?

1. Check under immigrant.
2. If it says ready, that means you can go ahead and schedule an interview.
3. You can fill the DS on your phone or PC. Which ever is convenient for you. I used a PC, it’s a matter of preference.
4. Yes, K1 is non immigrant but processed as immigrant at the consulate. Don’t let that bother you. You’re good to go.
5. Don’t worry about the several weeks, you can go ahead and schedule your interview. Not sure about available dates tho cos of this COVID-19 wahala.

You are right. I just completed fall 2019 and spring 2020 of my masters in the US online while waiting to migrate. I have cleared 1 out of two years for the program while still in Nigeria.

It took me 5 days to get my Attestation. But I think it's possible to fast track it within a day if some palms are greased. It's usually the signing that takes time. During my time, I was told the Director was not on seat.
please was your npc attestation of birth accepted for AOS??

The NPC attestation of birth is accepted for AOS. Without it, you would likely get an RFE.

fee is very expensive.

In United States immigration law, marriage not made in good faith and for purposes of immigration fraud is a felony, subject to a penalty of a US$250,000 fine and five-year prison sentence on the citizen, and deportation of the foreigner.

Hi everyone, this was posted on VJ and I thought I post it here for any interested person.

So we have been waiting for news on international flight resumption and some of us visas are almost expiring. After all the stress just to see ones visa expire to go through a renewal process again. So some Nigerians that are residents in the US contacted Ethiopian airlines who are willing to get Nigeria govt approval for a flight from Niger to the US but that the passengers must be over 150. So I joined the group with this link and in case anyone here is interested. You too can

This is commendable.

The WhatsApp link you posted is actually faulty. Its not your fault though, it is purposely done by the nairaland forum. Perhaps you can also post the VJ link so people can get the correct WhatsApp link there.

Thanks for sharing this info. I think we need to post this info in other relevant threads here on nairaland.

Hello everyone,

I hope you all are doing fine wherever you are? There hasn't been much of an update owing to this COVID-19.

However, today i want to update you all on my AOS progress. Unfortunately, I and my fiancee couldn't get married until couple of days ago,even though I have been in the US since the 20th of March. This is because she has been away on deployment all this while. Two weeks after I got here, I tried applying for my Socials, but wasn't able to, as their office was closed due to the pandemic.

We eventually were able to fix an appointment a day after my wedding to get my socials and have my wife change her name. My wife's change of name was successful, but I wasn't able to get my socials because according to the officer, there was a mismatch on my immigration status as it changed from "K-1" to "Temporary Employment/Non-Immigrant Temporary Employment Authorized". So please, for those coming to the states soon, do not wait for too long before applying for your socials, else you will have to apply through the form i-765 like i did.

I just shipped off my application to USCIS recently and keeping my fingers crossed for a positive response. Make sure to bring all your school qualifications that you have for the new form i-944. That form is a bit sensitive and complex. More updates will be given as time goes by.

Cheers..
