You don't need a Dubai visa, you are just on a transit to the US and a pretty short one.

Enjoy your short stay at DXB

God bless you, thank you

Hello sis.
NO, you won't need a Dubai/UAE Visa since you are just on a transit to the USA.
The American 'point' at Dubai Airport will check the passport/Visa and stamped it and you are good to go from there after asking one or 2 simple questions.
Hubby will only have to wait at the airport for 4 to 5 hours till they announce his connecting flight.
It will be on many electronic boards at the airport also (about when the flight will be ready and they will also anounce it on the airport speaker.
You will meet many people waiting for the same flight as well.
So happy everything went well for you and hubby at last!
All the best for the future.

And we will talk about the POE (point of entry) when he gets to the states also later, i.e by the BP (Border Patrol).....the very very last step of all your journey about travelling!
CONGRATULATIONS sis!

If I tell you that you're God sent to us, I say it with all gratitude, happiness and fullness of heart. Thank you sooooo much for everything, you have no idea how much you have helped us. May helpers locate you anywhere you are in the world, God bless you for us *tight hugs*

Hello please does anyone know if there's any restriction? Is a Dubai Visa required for Nigerian passport holder with US Immigrant Visa, traveling to the United States with connecting flight in Dubai?

The ticket has a 4 to 5 hours layover in Dubai, flight route is Lagos - Dubai - US

Thanks in anticipation

Hello Sis, been a while.
How did it all go?
Hope it ended well, or still on it?

Thank you so much my brother, yes everything went well, he got the Visa. God bless you for all your help

Hello @lagosniv can certified divorce decree be accepted for IR1/CR1 immigrant interview in place of the Divorce certificate? The divorce decree is from Texas

@lagosniv good day sir/ma'am

I'm curious about what the hold up at the Lagos Embassy is, for sending available interview slots to NVC for IR and CR visas

Some of us have been waiting for available interview dates since case complete of August 22, 24 and so on

Each time we call the NVC to verify if we have received interview dates, they tell us that they are waiting on Lagos Embassy to send them available slots

It is extremely difficult to be this far apart from our spouses especially during the holidays. Many of us are paying outrageous last minute ticket prices just to return to Nigeria to spend Christmas with our spouses. We were hopeful they would be interviewed by November or latest early December, in time to join us here in the States for Christmas

Please help us understand what is causing the delay, thank you

geerem:
Please help, for the past two months NVC has being rejecting my marriage certificate, saying it is not in the right side up, I have rotated it in different positions and I keep getting the same message, please how did you place yours . I don't know what to do again as I have rotated the document in different positions but I keep getting "Thisdocument is not in the right side up position .please replace  with a scan which displays the words horizontally on the screen", please help me

I placed it in this position but I made sure all the edges were straight. If you look well, yours is slanting. This position is correct, it is horizontal but slanting a bit

Also make sure you use a very big scanner. Place the entire document in the middle of the scanner and make sure it's a perfect edge rectangle before gently closing the lid to scan so it doesn't shift

Pele NVC wahala is something else

You are welcome.
So, back to your question.

Assuming this question was asked sometimes in September, the answer would have been an outright YES!
But this is November already , we are talking about 2 months here, now, it is 50/50, no one can be 100% sure about the embassy and the time they schedule their interview, one can only speculate (it takes around 3 months there about).
They have the final say concerning that.
When they send you the interview date, you will have to wait for roughly for another 2 months before the interview, so you looking at January next year there about.
Don't rush it at all, let them do it there time, you are on a good path.
Goodluck.

Oh wow! Lord have mercy and favor us. Thank you so much for all your help, God bless you!!

You are always welcome.
We will reply this much much later today.
In the middle of work now.
Just acknowledging this for now......

Okay thank you very much

Got your mention at the other thread notifying us about your thread.
Let's try to brief you the little we know about this.
First of all, congratulations about your 'case completed at NVC' that is a very good step you have passed.
So the next thing will be for you to wait patiently for your interview letter, which will take between 2 to 3 weeks, after you get your interview letter, then get ready for your medical exam at any of the only 2 hospitals recognised on the Island (Lagos) to carry out the medical, you ( your hubby rather) will be taking the medical result with you to the interview, the medical result comes out after like 2 weeks, so check your interview date to know how soon you will be going for the medical...
Wishing you all the very best.
We may be a bit busy for sometime but we'll gladly give you any info you need for free as much as we know and as much as we have the time to reply.
It's surprising to see that many people don't answer urgent question here, concerning this, they rather even delete your question on some thread.
Hope they won't delete this!
All the best once more sis.

Oh God bless you immensely, thank you so much. Please do you know what is the possibility of him interviewing next month? Do you think if I return to Nigeria for Christmas, there's a possibility we can return back together after the new year? I'm so confused and worried because of the timing

jamoyakz:
how did the process take? I mean from marrying to getting approved?

do you mean how long? I filed 8 months after the marriage. It took another 8 months to get approved

What is your update now? How soon after your case complete at NVC did you get the Visa interview please?

bencliff2017:
Thank you for asking, I have not visited my post after my interview. I cant really say if the interview went bad or good but I can feel some good omen in it.
After they have asked me several questions , I was expecting them to take my passport for visa but to my surprise I was given 3 white papers .. They said I need an additional document

post=68129468:
You don't pay for the visa pick up at DHL. It's free... about the medical, there are only 2 hospitals in Lagos that is approved to do that and only one in Abuja (those are the only 3 approved all over Nigeria).
I can't really remembered the exact amount I paid for my medicals some few months ago, I still have the receipt tho, but it's not with me at the moment( I'll give you more details later), but it's below 90K.... plan for 100K tho, you will go back home with the remaining.
They are both on the Island.
I'll send you the contact numbers for the 2 hospitals also when I get back to base.
Goodluck.

Guess you are lucky I saw your post immediately you posted it here.
I was like you looking for all information i can gather just few months ago also.

The only difference now, is that I did Cr1, not K1.

hello please we just received our case complete at NVC stage for CR1, I even created a thread just now for it. Please help me answer my question about the interview, God bless you

Hi everyone, we just received our case complete for our CR1 at NVC. Does anyone know when we would possibly receive an interview date? We are supposed to interview at Lagos Embassy

Hello VO,

I am a US citizen and filing for my husband. We are currently at the NVC stage and awaiting a case complete for our CR1 Visa, our priority date is Dec 28 2017. We've submitted all our civil documents and awaiting acceptance, I have a few questions;

1. Are there still available interview dates for this year? I read somewhere on Visa Journey that all slots are filled up. We are interviewing at the Lagos Embassy

2. How soon can we receive an interview date once our case is completed at NVC?

3. Do we need to wait for directions from the Embassy before doing the medical or can we go ahead and get it done?

4. What are our chances of spending Christmas together in the US this year?

5. Can we choose an interview date or do we have to wait for the Embassy to choose one for us?

Thank you for your time
