If you are talking about the high school grades required to meet the education qualification, they are on the website of the US embassy Nairobi.

when exactly does one pick mode of qualifying if its education or work

You don't really pick it as such. For example you could go to the interview with both bases covered. The interviewer will typically as for education experience first, but if you were found to not meet the standard you could then present your work experience case.

Please someone help me to know how to transfer credits from an international University to a USA college/University.
Click to expand...

@enoo ...what level are you at? graduate, bachelors, etc. ...I've not transferred credits before but I have had my Ugandan degree evaluated and translated into the US equivalent through http://www.thedegreepeople.com/services/evaluations/ ... I was trying to get into B-school. Those guys translate course by course and assign the corresponding U.S. course grade. The equivalent GPA is also calculated. I believe this might be a good starting point for credits transfer... you can also get in touch with the College enrollment advisers to guide you.

The last 2 digits of the CN is not what is used for projecting or estimating the interview time, it is the first 2 digits following the last '0' in the numeber series. So are these the first two or the last two digits of your CN?

Any one with an idea when the case No 2015AF000004XX will be attending interview.(Nairobi)I have studied the VB but not very certain whether it will be In October or November.I have a family of (wife and 3 kids).I decided the family to follow later.Getting a passport was a nightmare and I don't want to be under financial pressure.Any opinion or advice is most welcome.Am also expecting to receive an invitation to proceed with the VISA processing in 2 weeks time if my prediction goes well.Pray for me as I am sure to be among the first lot to test the new system.

For starter let's see some of the terms most often used in DV processing.

1) Visa Bulletin (VB)
Visa Bulletin is a publication regarding immigration to the United States published by the United States Department of State. The primary purpose of this bulletin is to provide an updated waiting list (also known as Priority Date) for immigrants that are subject to the quota system.The content of the bulletin is available on the web address http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/english/law-and-policy/bulletin.html

2) Current

We say current when visa numbers are available for a specific qualified applicant. Visa numbers are available only for applicants whose priority date is earlier than the cut-off date listed in the tables

3) 1st NL and 2nd NL

First NL (1st NL) is the First Notification Letter that you received explaining that you are a winner. While the Second NL (2nd NL) is the Second Notification Letter that the Kentucky Consular Center send to your email describing your date, time and place of interview.

4) C.O

Is the Consular Officer who will conduct your interview in the embassy when you go for the interview.

5) P.O.E

Is the Port of Entry. It is the first entry point where you enter the United States of America after your entry is approved by the US Immigration officers.
 
Sure ! You will have your interview in october.
And yes your family can follow you later, if you have chosen that option. Just don't let them wait untill late in the fiscal year, because as you know DV 14 and DV 15 are over loaded, so don't geopardize your family chances...
Good luck
