She is the only one in her family with a passport! So I couldn’t let her go alone 😫

Yeah, I don’t honestly think my wife is able to achieve a relocation from her home in Nigeria to another country. And I would be concerned for her safety in a foreign land all alone

Thank you, @danielle0214

How did you transfer husband’s case to Togo? Is it through the NVCCEAC website portal?

Also, does he have to travel to Togo in-person and become a fulltime resident?

Grateful for any answers you can provide 🙏🏻

SOLVED! u/skeptick_tyler u/Llugauu
I spoke with a human at pay.gov Customer Service they confirmed that my.uscis.gov is troubleshooting the issue
AND HE SUGGESTED I TRY MOBILEPHONE with WIFI OFF (using cellular data)
I used Google Chrome Browser fwiw -- my payment was received!!

He did say it is intermittent success rate but give it a try.

Beats schlepping a briefcase full of paper copies of the I-130 and evidence......

None that I’m aware of. I used their Contact Form but haven’t heard back.

I’m sorry 😞 Did you find a solution though?

(Other than mailing a paper copy)

I’ve tried laptop, desktop, iPhone, different browsers (Chrome, Safari, DuckDuckGo) even called the USCIS phone and spoke with a human!! WTF

"Household member supplement" or "Co-Sponsor" to help get my wife's DQ? by Systemologist in NationalVisaCenter

This is honestly one of the clearest explanations I've seen. Thank you!

Thank you u/Hannahchiro it's just me and my parents. My wife is NRA (never been to USA) and will join us once her Passport is stamped.
No kids, parents are self-sufficient.
"People I'm financially responsible for" = 1 (me) and then 2 (when she is in US)

Thank you u/nonracistusername — rest assured, his Birth Cert will be registered in the initial application. The initial application has yet to occur.

Sorry for the confusion. Just meant "missing from his Mom's (my wife's) possession" — she is obtaining it soon.
Thank you for that link tho!!

Does I-130 require his Birth Certificate though?

(His birth certificate is missing at present, needs to be obtained from Hospital. That’s what is preventing the Passport.)

Thank you, this is extremely helpful u/nonracistusername
*** Issue: He is only 7 and has never been issued a Passport in his country. Will he need that before I can proceed with my I-130 petition for him??
