    Thanks for the kind words. For those who asked, i didn't have anything verified BUT I look very trustworthy. I am 28 year old female asian with a child and pregnant degree and a stable job. Not the sort of people you'd find on river road. If your 20 and unemployed you'd probably want to get it...

    Green Card activated. I was very (VERY) worried about my husband being deported and the visa being cancelled so on the flight, I chickened out a bit. This was a 16 hour flight so by the time we landed I was a nutcase. I asked my husband to go before me so he can get in first before we activate...

    DV Lottery & name change

    Since we're on that topic, How can someone change their name in the USA? My parents named me after my great grandmother. In Indian culture, old women are addressed as "bai" (literally Mother). So my name is usamommybai lol. I managed to bribe the guys doing my ID in Kenya to put a hyphen between...

    Hi Guys, activating this weekend. I went against the grain and did 2 things:- 1. I will travel with my husband not before/after him because well... I can't live without him and honestly being alone with the 3 year old in the Embassy was hard. This is a 30+ hour trip. Will let you know if they...

    Usken at the end of the day you will need good credit. No one is asking you to buy a Ferrari on loan, but a simple store card on which you spend a few hundred on groceries and repay end month.

    For starters maybe you can change your name. We actually do have experts here but no one calls themselves that. It sounds boisterous. I don't mean that in a bad way either.

    You can also build credit by getting a postpaid phone line instead of prepaid. In my opinion, you will never need more than 2 credit cards so if someone calls you and says you have been prequalified for a credit card, refuse. Most of these cards have hidden charges. SusieQQQ my uncle was a...

    This is the strategy I used to increase my chances of winning: I ENTERED THE LOTTERY: I did not win the first nor second time, but I got it the third time. I READ THE RULES: I understood what I was submitting before actually filling the form. I WAS HONEST: I did not lie, I did not submit...

    1. Did you list him on your initial application? 2. In the birth certificate, there is specifically a place that states Father's Name and Mother's Name. In these spaces are you and your husband listed? If your answer is yes for both questions, you have nothing to worry about.

    Presently they are at 13,000 for November. In MY estimates, I like to think they move by 5,000 a month so I should assume January or February for you, but that is just me. It is a guess. Keep coming back here to see when your number goes current. Meanwhile ensure your ds 260 is sunmitted, get...

    If the CO has reason to believe the certificate is not genuine you could be placed on AP. According to the whatsapp group people have been placed on AP for this. Mind you even I paid for the verification because I'd rather be safe than sorry.
