VisaOfficer:
I wouldn't worry yet. Sometimes it takes NVC longer than expected to review files, especially when USCIS sends them more files than they were expecting.

The only way to find out what's happening with your case is to ask NVC, unfortunately. I know it's difficult to wait but it shouldn't be long now!

Thank you Ma, during my interview, will l be asked questions about my Step_mum? Will l be asked questions about my dad? Do l need proof of convesation with my dad or step_mum or both?

VisaOfficer:
Good questions! The priority date is the date a petition was filed with USCIS. This date lets you know where your petition is in the queue and how long it will be until your case can be scheduled for an interview.

Priority dates are not applicable to IR2 petitions, or to any IR or CR petitions. Those petitions have priority over every other type of case, and as soon as the petitions are approved, the cases will be scheduled for the next available appointment date.

Thank you Ma, now l undastand

VisaOfficer:

Thank u Ma

VisaOfficer:
It is possible that you and your brother may receive different interview dates, yes. When you know your dates, if you wish you may e-mail LagosIV@state.gov and ask to be interviewed on the same day.

Sometimes USCIS requests DNA tests before approving a petition if the documentation provided is not convincing.

NVC will let you know if they wish you to submit additional documents. Please be patient -- NVC processing can take a long time. You should contact them directly if you have questions about your case at this stage, as until the case is sent here to post, I'm unable to check its status.

Thank u Ma, God will reward you multiple folds for your good work Ma. I ll jst keep my fingers crossed. how can l contact NVC?

VisaOfficer:
As soon as the petitions are approved and the cases are documentarily complete, NVC will schedule you for the next available appointment date.



NVC should have asked for an AOS for each of you. Your case will need the I-864 but you brother can use the I-864W, as he's under 18.



The case's status is that it is being processed at the National Visa Center.

Thank you so much ma. i hop you wont get tired of me, am just being desperate to go there and start my life. my life is there, not here. i only sleep and eat and stay in my mumMs shop here
When my dad was filing DS_260 for I and my broda. Mine wasnt accepted until after 3days while my brother's DS_260 was accepted immediately. When it was time for payment at NVC, his payment was required 1st before mine but my dad paid togetther. he waited for my payment to be requested before he paid for my broda's own too. NVC has reqquested for his AOS, they havnt requested for mine. Are they processing our case differently? Does that mean our interview dats will be different?
2) when we went for our DNA test, l met a guy who is of d same age with me and his dad is filing for him too, so when l told him we are here for DNA 1st, he was suprised and he said that he had cone for his interview 1st and he had to be subject to DNA afterwards and that DNA test is a last resort, please ma, how true is this? I noticed our processing is quite different from others. DNA 1st, b4 interview. Why ma?
I went to check my Case Status at NVC site and l saw this
"Please follow the instructions you receivedfrom the National Visa Center (NVC) for the next step in the processing of your visapetition. If you have misplaced the instructions sent to you by the NVC or did not receive them, please contact us athttp://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/info/info_3177.htmlfor additional information.". Does that mean l have otherr documents to submit?

Thanks for your help so far Ma. Please Ma, l help advice and update but for you to understand me, l ll start from the beginning. please bear with me and save from wondering and woried heart
We(my broda and l) got our passport issued on the 17th of October 2013. My dad who is a green_card owner asked us for the copy of our school and birth certificate with pictures linking us to him. we sent it to him
On the 25th of August 2014, we went for our DNA test and we got our results on 19th of January, it was positive
On the 21th of March 2015, l got an email stating that my DS_260 and that of my brother have being submitted and it ll take 30 working days for review.
It is past 30 working days now and we have not received anything from NVC. I got worried and l talked to my dad. He said he has submitted all the documents but l want to be sure. He also told me that his American wife is filing for us too, so am guessing its a joint filing
1)How long do l have to wait for an interview?
2) NVC did not reques for Affidavit of Support for mine but it was requested for my younger broda, should l be worried? I am 19 and he is 11
3) what is the status of our case? LGS2015551078.
God bless you Ma
