Lome: CR2/IR2 visas issued

Immigrant visa: Child of U.S. citizen

Interview scheduling at Lome

NVC is scheduling most CR2/IR2 interviews for cases that became documentarily complete in:

All three categories: immediate relatives, family preference and employment

Current

the update’s month, Oct 2026

The State Department sends immigrant visa applicants from Togo to Abidjan, not Lome.

Details

Its list of embassies and consulates for immigrant visas names Abidjan. But its notice of July 15, 2026 names Lome as a regional visa hub, so check the embassy’s own website (usembassy.gov).

Current can also mean Lome is not scheduling immigrant visa interviews at all.

Compare with the month NVC emailed you that your case was documentarily complete.

What this month means

It is not a wait time: it is the month NVC is scheduling most interviews for now, and it can move backwards. “Current” means NVC is already scheduling cases from the update’s month; it can also mean the post schedules none, so check the embassy’s own website (usembassy.gov). Documentarily complete: NVC has accepted all your documents.
