DV-2020 Ghana Selectees

@Sm1smom I really appreciate your honest opinions and didn't mean to be mischievous when using "frown". I believe you always want the best for us. really sorry if I offended you.
why wouldn't I wish to travel with my family in the first place? that's my dream but I need to make sure the right steps are taken for our good. if I can spend less now and travel with my family why should I deliberately choose the more expensive and complicated option? I mentioned in my earlier post that I'm the only paying all the fees and you know it's quite demanding. But anyway, I still have time to think and till then anything can happen. thanks

@Sm1smom
1) somebody suggested I go to my country and submit the DS, do you agree with him?
2) how do I justify the fact that I wrote an address that is different from my current address, the true one? I don't want to raise any suspicions.
3) others suggest that I still notify kcc, do you agree?
thanks

1. You’re overthinking the entire process. You don’t need to go or be in your home country before submitting your DS260 form. It can be submitted from anywhere in the world regardless of where the interview will be taking place.
2. If you have a valid address in your home country, you can list it as your current address. If any issue is raised about it during your interview, you simply explain your reason for doing so - which is your preference to interview in your home country.
3. I already addressed this in a previous post.
 
Looking at the new requirement(passport), can we say that applicants for dv2021 are few! and more applicants could be selected?
 
@BlessD the process is very simple and straightforward. The embassy you fill on the ds260 is where you'll placed for your interview and NOT the residential address of the country you are when you applied for the lottery. Based on your case number, you have ample time to decide where you want your interview. Will advice you translate your credentials as soon as possible to avoid rushing last minute.

The only scenario I see is the number of entries will be few compared to previous years. Number range for Selectees won't be different. 55K visas will be issued
 
@odurojnr as a Ghanaian,can you post your interview experience here for dv2020 to know what is expected?
Some want to know and compare dv2020 to other years interviews at the embassy so kindly do that for us.

That’s not quite accurate. Interviewing embassy is allocated based on the embassy servicing the listed address on the DS260 form.

If a person selects the Cameroonian US embassy because they prefer that embassy and subsequently lists their current address as Ghana for instance on the DS260 form, KCC will disregard their selection and schedule the interview with the US Ghanaian embassy. Unless of course the person follows up with KCC to explain why they selected the Cameroonian embassy.

@Rass US embassy in Ghana is more concern about English math and science, and any other two .which is will qualify you to any polytechnics and most universities Course in Ghana . Without you haven any other higher education. I can’t give you any false hope .I STAND TO BE CORRECTED.

Failing only science is not a problem at all
You're good!
 
@Sm1smom
hi guys. please I have a few questions:
1) how do I answer the question: is your mailing address the same as your present address? I tried "no" and was directed to provide
my present address and I wrote my current address. right?
2) like I said our child was born here, should I say yes to the question: do you hold any other nationality?
thanks

1. I’ve already explained that your listed present/current address will be used in assigning your interviewing embassy, so you need to use your discretion regarding either listing an address in your home country as your current/physical address, or listing your Ghanaian address and following up with KCC (preferably by email) after submitting your DS260 to explain your desire to interview in your home country.
2. You’ll need to answer “Yes” for your son if he qualifies for both Ghanaian and your home country’s citizenships.

Yes, during my interview there were this two guys who had similar issues. One failed 2 subjects(social studies and chemistry), and the other failed core science but were all approved bcos their other grades were good to make it to the university.
So if @Rass failed only science but the other grades are good, I don't think is a problem.
The forum here has seen similar stories where people failed either maths or English but still went through so to me, I think he's good.
