I got this reply from the US embassy in Accra

''Thank you for your email.
The non-biometric passport will be accepted so
long as it is within validity.
We hope this information is helpful to you.
Sincerely,
U.S. Embassy Accra
Consular Section
Note: You should never pay for travel
arrangements (e.g., airfare, hotels) without
having a visa in your possession. The U.S.
Embassy accepts no responsibility if you do so.
We are unable to guarantee the issuance of a U.S.
visa before a fixed travel date. You risk
significant financial losses if you ignore this
advice.
**** Please include your case number in all
correspondence ****''

Thanks gh50,
I guess something was wrong somewhere because my child's blue passport was to expire in 2017, but I was asked to get the bio metric one first and we did before they issued the visa. Unless maybe the blue is valid for immigrant purposes but not non immigrant.
I still don't get it though, but thanks.

I also really don't get it here but I think all the same lil-kay should go ahead to get the new one to avoid any delays.

Well you'd best get on that and book that medical, and apply for the police report. Timings for both of those vary by location - just go ahead with them now....

medicals take at most 2 weeks; Akai house 2 weeks, Holy Trinity 1 week.
My Police report took 3 weeks to mature. Please look sharp...

No it will not have any effect on your case processing. I asked an immigration officer at the national passport office just last week and he told me all the old passports will not be valid after 2015 but for now they are accepted any where one wish to use it. I went on to call the US Embassy in Accra to confirm and it was confirmed old passports with six months validity periods are accepted.

Good luck Lil-Kay. We are meeting @ the embassy same time 1st October for the interview. God see us all through successfully. I also have all my documents ready in a file waiting graciously for that fateful day. 1st October the interview day and 2nd October happens to be my birthday. Hope God offer me the visa as a birthday present, which I believe He will.

i do have the new one...wit the old one cancelled evn tho it had abt 2 yrs to expiry. d point is that i didnt know how soon i would go for the interview (didnt even think it wld b dis year) and subsequently how soon i wld leave the country cos i intend to leav in d new yr. so i had the renewal done to b on the safer side with morrr time to its expiry.
