"Good learners?" Ha ha ... of course "achievers are good learners my brother". Rather, I wish to advise you to be good learner in life instead of making easy things as big as landing on the Jupiter. I remember, you said "Adama is too far for you (only 30 minutes drive from Addis on the new...

Hi @dawgeb, no panic.:-) See the bottom of their page for phone number. http://www.uscis.gov/ Good Luck

Ok @Fikir12, you did good to check ET. For me it was more than 1.5 times expensive than Emirates (11,000 and 18,000 birr respectively). Yours is a bit far. We fly direct to NY connecting at Dubai. Cheers!!

No worries guys, I know it is like that and it needs unlimited patience. As we never heard of un-issued passport, whatever days it takes, you will definitely get your passport with the visa so keep on your preparation for the travel. Wish you all the best.

VISA Bulletin for July and August released removing Ethiopia from exception list (Egypt remains as exception). July for Africa including Ethiopia in 36,500 and for August is 42,250. Do we have someone in the forum with immigrant number in the August range?

@Fikir12, yes you are on the right track, Quatar and Emirates offer a very fair rate compared to others. I bought ours from Emirates. But don't forget to book online and then go to their office with your book ing printout. You will save $60 on each ticket.

Congrats gere!! Good Luck. What a proud forum.

@Fikir12 Congratulations and welcome to the club. Time to pack and buy your ticket!! GOOD LUCK

@great2meetu, yes these are the only payment we made. There is no additional cents to pay anywhere (all DHL cost is included in the visa payment $320). I don't also know the 50birr @abi328 was referring. Payment at Abssinya Bank is an old story that was practised some years back for the visa...

We received exactly 10 days after the interview day.

@abi328 Congratulations for being lucky. Regarding the point you raised, I already told you that you can not claim examples as a proof and thus I rather humbly accept to "disagree to agree". By the way, you should understand that our objective here is not to prove or disprove but to get 100%...

Hi @rolex123, that is the best option for you to be sure of what is going on. By the way, if they have the option to go and see them in person, can we say that the USCIS office has branches in every city (area) just like the SSA office?

Yes.

Crystal clear! @SusieQQQ, @Sm1smom thank you very much for your fast reply.

Qn: Ones we receive the Plastic Green Card, is it a must to stay and work in the US to keep the Green Card valid? Or is it possible to get employed in another country (say in Abu Dhabi), pay tax to the US government and maintain the Green Card valid. Please refer me to any site where I can read...

Welcome @nasa, you are the first we heard of representing DV2016 selectee. In addition to the advises you get above, I think your friend should visit one of those Internet Cafes who are "professional" in filling the DS260 carefully. If you are in Addis, for example, you can go to the main Post...

Hi @rolex123, I just checked our USCIS ELIS account, it only has full name, date of birth and country of birth fields filled and all the rest including physical and mailing addresses have only a dot in the field. Lets assume this is their style and is normal (could be for security reason). If...

Dear Habtu, welcome to the forum. This forum has a lot of helpful people on DV related matters as long as you provide all your relevant information (You don't need to tell us your personal information like your name which you already did). Regarding your 10+4 education, the most important is...

Ok @SusieQQ I understand. Thank you. Yes face values matter sometimes.

Thank you @rolex123 for the details. Ha ha .. I'm surprised:) by your 8 luggage of food. That should be why the prices of Berebere and Shiro have increased here at the Shola Market :) I wish someone can tell us the difference in privilege when we use the one year Permanent Residence permit on...
