The embassy stated this in a message on its website: https://ng.usembassy.gov, accessed by the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) monday in Abuja.
The embassy had on August 15 temporarily
suspended its consular services in Abuja due to reasons it said were
beyond its control.
“The US Embassy in Abuja’s consular
section will reopen on August 24 for full services for both visas and
ACS. Please, note that consular functions at the US Consulate Lagos were
never affected and will continue as usual.
“We regret the inconvenience this interruption of service in Abuja has caused,” it stated.
The embassy stated that Visa and ACS
applicants with scheduled appointments for August 24 should come to the
Embassy in Abuja, as usual.
“Visa and ACS applicants with cancelled
appointments between Aug. 13 and Aug. 23 will be contacted by the
Embassy for rescheduling.
“Visa and ACS applicants, who were
requested by an officer to appear again for follow-up questions on
existing applications should contact our office to arrange a new date
(ConsularAbuja@state.gov for visas or AbujaACS@state.gov for ACS,” it
said.
It assured Visa applicants, who
submitted passports through the Interview Waiver Programme for visa
renewal, that such would be processed as soon as possible.
“If your application was already
approved, it will be mailed out as normal on the next available DHL
shipment to your listed address.
“Abuja ACS applicants, who wish to pick-up their already-printed US passports, may come on Friday between 9:30a.m and 11a.m.
“If you are uncertain if your US passport has arrived yet, please contact us first at AbujaACS@state.gov,” it added.
