This is very informative. I came into America 3days ago through a Connecting flight from lagos to Atlanta, Atlanta to BWI. When I got to Atlanta that was where my Visa was stamped at the immigration and customs office. I didn't have to go through the customs in BWI again. Saying this cos you said we shouldn't go through customs and immigration where we are connecting.
Hello Lami..tnx for the information, I recently got my CR1 visa and your videos have really been of great help…I look forward to seeing more lovely contents❤️
Wow Thanks from the bottom of my heart I didn't miss one second this video because you look honest and loyal I loved your personality and this is my first time to watch your videos immediately I subscribed Thanks again for those information 🙏
My wife is from South Africa it took alot to get her here if you marry a foreign person its a long process and ots stressful at times so if you not patient then dont do it but i made it we made it
Quite informative video dear, thank you. New subscriber here. Please you said you got married on April 2019, when exactly did you file your case please?
I'm also on cr1 when I finally get to America .I will be one day to make my marriage 2 years.will they change it too? Secondly I'm traveling with my husband son will there be any extra stuffs I have to do?
Thank you so much for the explanation.pls my question is will you be deported if you say you are visiting your cousin before going to your final address destination?
This is so educative but my husband is with our marriage certificate can I use the photocopy for the picture interview and do they need my statement of account too?
@Lami’s Channel after my interview the CO gave me an approval slip but held on to my marriage certificate,Passport,divorce decree,wedding pictures.will they be returned to me?
You don’t need a lot to get your social security number. You need your green card and international passport. If you have more documents with you, you can take them. But that was what I was asked. And yeah finding a job was not bad all I had to do was work on my resume and apply for jobs online. Some months later I got a job. But you need a social security number after you get the job because you will need it.
Yes he can travel with you once he gets his passport back with the visa in it. The first thing is for him to get that passport back. I think it’s faster to pick up than have it delivered to you.
@@tammyayoromovebyfaithminis1739 before the interview you are to chose your preferred form of delivery either pick up or home delivery. He can go the the travel.state.gov click on US visas, immigrate, the immigrant visa process in step 10 number 2 he can click on it. He can search of the embassy either Lagos or Abuja, and follow the instructions
Hello Lami, congratulations on your visa to the US. I'm currently going for same and would like to know if I can fill my 130a in ink in naija and scan to my hubby. Would love to hear from you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much. So yes you can fill your I-130a with ink and scan to your husband to use that as reference to fill online. It’s better filling online so there is no case of misinformation. I hope you understand. So fill with ink and send to your husband to fill for you. When he’s done he can send Back to you to sign it. Or he can use your initials as your signature. Whichever works for both of you.
Now you know the reason why its coz you eclipsed 2 years of your marriage by the time you arrived at the airport so they gave you a 10 yesr greencard which is great 😅 ..great info by the way..and even the interviewer at the embassy will tell people DO NOT PUT YOUR DOCUMENTS IN CHECKED LUGGAGE
And please how did you locate your husband? Did you connect to wifi at the airport because obviously, Nigeria network won't be available there? Thank you so much.
Yes you can connect to the airport wifi. So you guys can talk on Whatsapp when you land. He told me the where he would wait for me at the arrival area, so it was easy to locate him.
@@lamischannel Oh. Flight will not be required to get to Newark, from NY. Both states share boundaries. They usually commute between the two states via link roads. Some of the link roads are even less than 30minutes drive. Would appreciate you explaining more why one needs to report to immigration at final destination.
Hello Lami ,Am your new subscriber,and I like your video, please is it possible to get an immigrant visa to go be with your fiancee and get married even though your fiancee has never been to Nigeria before?
He can file for a fiancé visa (K1) but he needs to propose to you and you need evidence of that. So your fiancé needs to come see you. It doesn’t have to be in Nigeria though. If you guys have traveled somewhere together before you need pictures of that. And also pictures from the proposal.
Hello. I don’t have much details about F1 visas or Fiance visa ( k1). I only share my experience on CR1|IR1 visa (Spousal visa) on this Channel. But from what you said if I understand correctly. You are coming to America on a student visa but your Fiancé is sponsoring your education. You shouldn’t pay for a green card in my opinion. An F1 visa is not a CR1 / IR 1 visa those are the only visas that can get you a green card. A K1 visa also gives a green card but that is after you enter into the United States get married to your fiancé and he files an adjustment of status for you. Moreover the US sends a link for payment. You can’t just pay online on your own if you understand what I mean.
@@lamischannel Hello lami ... Please did you fill any form on the flight from turkey 🇹🇷 to the States declaring your goods ...or how will you declare goods

Congratulations 🎉 . I will suggest you call the pick up center in Victoria island and change your pick up to delivery. If you choose delivery, it will be delivered to you in Abia state. Better still if it’s possible come back to pick it up in lagos.

Please if I may ask did they used to feel any form on your first day of entering
Hi everyone, when you get to immigration, wich line you go to US Citizens/Permanent Residents or Visitors?
Hi, please speak to the airport authority they will point you in the right direction. Please ask questions at the airport so as not to make mistakes.
There is two lines at immigrations entery , US citizens only and tourists . For a new immigrant which line should she or he go?
The airport security will point him or her in the right right direction
*Do I need to have health insurance in U.S before I travel with IR1?*
No you don’t. Once you have an IR1 visa you can travel to America
How much is the green card fee
You mentioned you had been denied Visa before.... Was it F130
I was denied Canadian study visa.
Pls how did u pay for ur green card
