The total number of E2 issued at Lagos Consulate in January 2024 was 49 according to the monthly immigrant visa issuance report.

I just hope they send ILs en-mass for EB2 this month, they only issued 134 visas for EB2 while 493 visa was issues for EB3 in last fiscal year.

adedammy009:

Una dey hustle 60 days notification when we all dey expect IL. The notification is good but IL is better...hahaha

😂😂😂😂😂😂 no mind am. IL will come soonest by God’s grace

Aku660:
What is your class of Visa? Is your priority date current?

Bro no worry, I just got their notice mail too at 13:30. 😂

Aku660:
Yes, I've been current in 2 Visa bulletins, January and February 2024. This makes it 60 days. January 2024 Visa bulletin was released December 2023 and February Visa bulletin January 2024.

Oh got the explanation thanks. I also share same PD month as you and i did not get a notification. Although my DQ is October 2023 could this be the reason?

Aku660:
You are right. I've received the 60 days notice this morning.

Wait, you became current in January 2024 bulletin, how come you received the 60 days notice? Is there something i am missing?

Congratulations!!!!

Please has anyone received IL this month?

The interview went well, I received the visa approval. I got to the Lagos consulate 30mins before the interview time. The CGI folks checked my appointment letter to ensure that I was scheduled for the day. Once confirmed, I was allowed in and told to arrange my documents in the order described in the interview invitation mail.

When I got into the visa hall. I was initially called for document verification at a window. All of my original documents were collected including my original school certificates. These were compared with the information that I submitted to NVC which had been mailed to them.

Once done, I was told to sit and wait till my number was called. There was no particular order to the way that applicants were called for the interview with the consular officers. After an hour, I was called by one of the officers.Below are some of the questions he asked:

Have you ever lived in any other country for more than 6 months?
Are you currently employed and where do you work?
How many years of experience do you have?
Where are you going to in the US and what are you going to do there?
Do you have any professional certifications along with your academic credentials?
Have you ever changed your name?
Do you have other dependents that aren't applying with you?

Once he was done with his notes, he mentioned that I had been approved and he gave me a white slip. He held on to my passport, but returned all my original documents that I had submitted during the initial screening.

The main takeaway is that even though the consular officer is not readjudicating the petition, they're validating the legitimacy of the application from an immigration perspective.

Most importantly, ensure that you're consistent in all of the information provided, as I saw a lot of people get entangled by providing inconsistent or incomplete information to the consular which led to the dreaded 221g refusal.

Wishing you all the best in your journey.

Omo you no get joy oo 😂😂😂😂
Easy please lol

TinFoil100:


going through the thread, could not help but address this case of ignorance. The 90% based in Nigeria statement is confusing , unnecessary, silly and low yield info at best. It is ignorant statement like this that affects engagement on this thread. I would have expected mary to address this issue better than the lukewarm way it was addressed.Anyways, If you don't want consulate cases here, Visajourney and discord page no far.



There was the usual 60 day reminder sent back on Dec 29th per usual everyone affected kept mum . For better update, everyone need to chip in. I am sure everyone got notified. @Koldfuzhion @Dmowumi @rajkuman and others with interview dates in January any update on interview? IF IL is to be sent expect 4th week January -1st week february for March interview dates.Else, the winter continues

Aku660:
I'm yet to receive the IL.

Hopefully soon

Any update on the IL now since you are current? Also, has everyone who received IL last year and interview postponed to January done their interviews?

Aku660:
Has anyone receive IL from Lagos consulate for January 2024?

Thank you so much, Yes, it has been sent to NVC but I still await a mail from NVC. they said this should be within 30 days.

Koldfuzhion:


I went on the UStraveldocs site to schedule an appointment with my case number but it seems NVC hasn't sent my case to the US Consulate in Lagos.

How did you successfully expedite your case?

My EB2-NIW was approved since 11th January and I am yet to get a correspondence from NVC. How long does this take, and what documents should I be putting together for the visa interview?

Koldfuzhion:


From 1992. Please go through the DOS website link for Nigeria for the details of requirements.

Thank you so much for this link, please where can i get the attestation?

Koldfuzhion:


I got an attestation of birth from the National Population Commission. NVC doesn't accept the old birth certificate.

Please what do you mean by old birth certificate, what year is the new one?
