I used it for medicals.

After I collect the new one I'll the biodata page to the USCIS website too. They say you should every document you'll be attending your interview with.

Why would you use the port you are changing from? When's your interview?

Bonawaja, how far? We have an F4 update to use as yardstick.

You're next by God's grace. Make the queue dey move small small. Lols!

All the best in your interview Exhausted03.

Exhausted03 i need you to update the house when you complete your interview in this month for best preparation for others that are going to be interview next month.
Thanks

Because it is still valid till October 2024 and I will the new one to the USCIS website when I collect it.

Guy, go and read what's written on their website. Your port has to be valid for up to 8 months beyond your interview date.
NIS seems to now take 10 weeks to renew port. The earlier you start the better.

@Exhausted03
How did your interview go? Please tell me what to expect and what they require to proof relationship. I have my own interview coming up next week please.

MissBeulah:

It's part of the requirements if you are going for medicals you will be asked for your vaccination history. But if unable to provide they will decide the vaccines you need to take as an immigrant. But this covid vaccine stuff was stated as a requirement in my visa interview mail.

hello, goodmorning.
If i haven't taken the covid vaccine before medicals, will it be given to me at the medical examination?

Was anyone's visa interview cancelled due to protests?

It went well.
When your interview time is mentioned you will be asked to cue on a line. After a few of your documents are checked, you will be ushered into a building. In that building any worker searching people will direct you to a place by the left where small vault lockers are. To put belongings in a locker costs ₦500 as at July. We left our things (phone&watches) there.

One thing I will tell everyone who is about to attend their interview is that Those guys outside the embassy want to dupe you. Do not be fooled, they charge outrageous amounts eg ₦20,000 for printouts (proof of payment printout) and will say certain documents which are not required are required just so you'll pay. Don't listen to them.

Bring every document/ printout required.

Lists Of Documents To Bring For F4 Interview Are In The Attachment Below

For Entry Into The First Embassy Building:

(1)Staple 2×2 inches port photo of each applicant on their respective printed colored DS260.
(2) After this, fix each applicant's DS260 into their international port.
Hold printed Appointment letter

Inside The Building:

(3) Provide the printed Appointment letter when asked
(4) If you are with phones, watches or sealed envelopes, ask an officer to direct you to where to keep them (as at July, I was asked to pay ₦500 to the person in charge of the safes where belongings are kept)

After this you will be directed out to another building. This is where the interview will take place after you have provided requested documents for each applicant and your petitioner.

The following documents will be requested:
(i) Birth certificate of the petitioner
(ii) Birth certificates of each applicant
(iii) One 2×2 inch port photo of each applicant
(iv) International port of each applicant
(v) Pictures that indicate relationship between the applicant and petitioner. (This could be printed screenshots of chats over the years, money transfer receipts or pictures of the petitioner and applicant together. If you choose to provide pictures, if possible, come with printed pictures of the petitioner and applicant together at different ages (as children, young adults & at older age). You don't need to photocopy these pictures like the guys at the gate will have you believe. The pictures will be given back to you once your interview ends.)
(vi) Filled Sheet (hand filled sheet is accepted)
(vii) Petitioner's tax return printout.
(viii) Marriage certificate if applicable
(ix) Death certificate if applicable
(x) Police Certificate
(xi) Affidavit of (form I-864)

Note:
1. Birth Certificate of each applicant must be issued by National population commission. If born before 1992, Birth attestation issued by National population commission will be requested.
Petitioner's birth certificate/attestation will be requested. (On this,if your petitioner can't send their birth certificate over, I advice getting one from the National population commission prior to your interview. NPC will ask you to go to Federal or State high court (it must not be magistrate court or the likes) and swear an affidavit. Go with a picture of the person and money [₦500 in Niger State, things are cheap here so go with more]. This same process applies to get a birth certificate or attestation of any of the applicants and the petitioner. Even if they are not present as long as the person swearing is a direct blood relative it will be accepted)

2. I saw people being sent back because they didn't provide enough evidence of relationship, (eg only pictures of d petitioner and applicant as adults). Provide enough evidence of relationship or your case could be postponed untill you provide them


3.I saw people who lied, were caught, and denied visa because of it. Records are kept. A woman stated a different age to the one she claimed when she was trying to get a non immigrant visa. Because of this she was denied. A man lied about applying for a non immigrant visa 8 years ago, he was caught, I don't know if he was denied. The point is, Do not lie. If you or your petitioner have previously stated a lie to the embassy either immigrant or non immigrant (though I discourage) stick to it and make it tally in all your documents.


During Your Interview:
Be honest, if you have provided everything you're asked for you will probably be approved.

*IOM usually sends medical results to the Embassy, but you can still bring the slips of each applicant you are given. If you bring the sealed envelope, you won't enter with it.

*A lot of the documents and photocopies I was asked to bring in my interview letter (eg Petitioner's Naturalization certificate) we're not asked for. However it is best to come prepared. Follow the instructions in your interview letter.

Incase
Print both proofs of payments from CEAC website

Do Not Print Anything From The Boys/Men At The Park They Over Charge And Make People Print And Photocopy Documents They Won't Use. If You Do, You Could Print 1 page which normally costs ₦100 for ₦20,000

So sorry for the late reply.
If you haven't attended your interview yet read what I posted above for everything you need to know

Great to see you back with what transpired. Congratulations! For the I-864, did you have the original couriered to you guys or you printed it off? Any request for an updated one? My friend's sis had hers today; birth cert of the USC, USC's I-864, and her Nigerian PCC were requested (updated one). She will send them off alongside their ports later. This happened in London.
