No matter how awesome you are or what your dream is, some people are going to quit on you.They wont believe in your dream. It will be a nuisance to them. Will you starve the majority who will be bettered by your dream because a few people quit on you? Be focused and Be yourself no matter what or where you find yourself. keep your eyes on the winning side...be motivated and have a success story.

With the high refusal rate in Accra. I don't know how safe I am with this issue
Entry name(initial dv lottery entry);
Surname: IDDRISU ALI
Firstname: ALHASSAN
Full name: IDDRISU ALI ALHASSAN

All other documents(including ds260)
Surname: IDDRISU
firstmane: ALI ALHASSAN
Full name: IDDRISU ALI ALHASSAN

I was in Niger and registered over there in a cafe and communication was a problem and state of chageability is also Niger instead of Ghana but that I learnt won't affect it.
How serious is this especially in Accra. Guess i don't have a chace

can you help me understand better.
you mean to say you have No Middle Name and you tick NMN on the initial dv?
Chargeability is based on country of birth and not nationality so you will need to prove with a birth certificate stating that you country of birth is Niger, do you have that?
note that you take responsibility for the entry of edv whether there is communication problem or not.

No, he is saying he has 3 names between first name and surname and the EDV has the middle part of his name attached to the surname rather than the first name.

Also he won't be disqualified for incorrect country of chargeability as they are both in AF region - so it didn't affect his chances of being drawn. He will be fine for that.

I really don't know what to suggest about the name. I think it is an obvious genuine error and the full name written out is the same, but indeed Accra seem to have been very strict this year...

cool but what i wanna know is whether he got middle name or not. i am asking this because we know the problem with F-Lan was the fact that there was a ticking of No First Name. Maybe i still do not understand the question well. I am happy to learn that the chargeability will not disqualify him since both countries are from Africa :)

cool bro, April is already here for you. for the names, so far what we know to be a problem is ticking either No First Name, No Middle Name or No Surname when actually the selectee has those name:(
 
it seems those who went to the states with dv in the previous years really got things very easy. When i told my guys over there in june that I was selected, they where like yoo its easy, once u have been selected you are already in the state unless you choose not to. One of them even suggested i do a fake marriage, he added that even whem a problem arises i being the principal applicant would be given a visa. But i declined bcos i said to myself that america doesn't own me a visa, i got to becareful. I have really learnt alot about the dv process this year i became serious to learn about it after I realised i missed ma schedule, things donot work as i was told at all. If I had the right info.....

have you heard from the embassy yet?

It will not be easy to come back to report when things did not go well unless you got the spirit of F-Lan,Life goes on. F-Lan, who started this forum reported back to say "Bad news for everyone. Visa denied because my first name was not in the right box. According to them my first name appear there as my middle. Even though I have it on my documents. The CO said they want to make sure no one fraud the system. Bad luck for me as I have no way explain that".
As much as the forum is there to help us learn from each other especially sharing the interview experience, it will take only courage to be enable to come back and report. Also note that there is a feeling of emergency to report of a success after interview which will be a normal feeling and a prove of excitement. Even when on AP, it will take only courage to be able to return to the forum like kul jay just about the interview to report of the outcome. Respect to all lets move on.

Guys, does it mean that when your Edv has your first Name as your Surname and Vise Versal but you correct it in the DV 260, there is the probability of refusal?.. what can i do to avert this refusal as every single document of mine bears the name as per how i arranged it in the DV 260. Kindly advice

As i pointed out earlier, the only case I have heard of relating to name was that of F-Lan, the different is that you did not tick any box of no name. I strongly believe that as long as you got all the three names showing on your birth certificate and all other documents without introducing additional name/s on the DS 260, you should be okay.
