i won the dv2011 and attended the interview in May. I was then told i have been put on administrative processing. For about three month i was just called to for my final appointment. i prayed and left. i was told by the officer that, my home country says i don't qualify for a visa because i failed in two subjects. During my interview i presented two high school certs. One contained the only two subjects failed but fortunately pass the two subjects.

So i told the officer that, i wrote the two subjects and passed. she asked me whether i brought that cert to the office when they called me for the final appointment, and i told her i brought it during the first interview. she denied and said it only one cert she can find on the computer of which my home country says i don't qualify.

I insisted i brought it and she looked back into the file and saw the cert we were arguing of. she was very surprised to see the cert in question in the file. She then told me to go back home and they are going to call me.

My question is:
i read that, refusal under this program is final. so how can they reverse their decision since i think they have informed all offices about that case refusal.

is it possible for my home country that is my country of birth to determine my requirement to qualify based on education but why not where i was interviewed because the officer said " according to your country you are not able to recieve the visa because you failed in the two subjects.

Can they come back to say something different to disqualify me because the two subjects they presumed i failed was actually passed.

and now, if by the deadline i don't hear from them is that my fault or that of the embassy.

I think they did you a favor by rejecting the visa for you ..

Consul needs to verify that the diploma you presented from your country is equivalent to 12 yrs of education in the US. So, in a way, your country does determine the requirement; they determine the entire educational system, and diplomas that are issued; US compares country's educational system with that of the US.

If you were rejected based on education, then do consider yourself lucky; consulate is just saving you from a hard life. In US highschool diploma is very common minimum requirement for many "blue collar" jobs. With current economic situation, many individuals with bachelors degrees are unemployed.

thanks but the issue is, i was being informed that my country says they cannot issue me a visa because i failed in some two subjects. These two subject in question, i have rewrite and passed but the consul did a mistake and did not verify on that cert when they sent my file to my home country for verification.

On that day, the refusal they thought of giving me back my documents was reverse and i was told that, that cert will be sent back for verification.

Now, i read that, refusal is final under this program, so how can the consul come again to accept me because for me i know the cert is original.

if you completed your high school in Ghana, then I would think that it's logical for consult to do that.

@kunato. So can the consul come back to say that we qualify for
Ghana but don't qualify for where i was interviewed?
