The United States Embassy in Nigeria has announced a review of its immigration visa process, effective January 1, 2025. Under the new directive, applicants with scheduled interviews will now be required to visit the Consulate General in Lagos at least twice during the application process.

The announcement was made via the embassy’s official X page on Tuesday.

“For applicants with interviews scheduled after January 1, 2025, you are required to visit the Consulate General in Lagos at least twice during the immigrant visa process,” the embassy stated.

According to the directive, the first visit will involve an In-Person Document Review with a consular staff member. This step ensures that applicants have all necessary documents ready for their interviews, preventing delays in visa processing.

“The review allows applicants to retrieve any missing documents ahead of their visa interviews, helping to avoid delays in application processing,” the embassy explained.

The second visit will be the actual interview with a Consular Officer, scheduled by the National Visa Center (NVC). The embassy emphasized that applicants who fail to complete the document review before their visa interviews will need to reschedule their appointments.

This new process aims to streamline the immigration visa process and minimize delays for applicants.
