Wow! You are a genius!

Sorry mate for being immature and narrow. You are the most informed person I have ever met and looks like you are a DV expert!

I do not wish to continue this conversation as it is adding nothing to the forum or for its users. Good luck to you if you are part of DV 2016 or applied for 2017.

You are lying because the US embassy in Fiji does not get itself involved in long conversations on the phone - they ask you to email them regardless of type of service request. Ask me - I am from Fiji and have been in this situation on various occasions. And I don't believe the embassy has so...

Hi @EmilyW. I am interested in learning a bit more on how you managed to book that apartment. 1) Did you do this online? 2) How did you arrange the upfront deposit and monthly rental payments from AU? I am planning to do the same from my home country, Fiji, before departing to US in mid...

I am applying for a few jobs that ask the question - "Do you have a work permit to work in the US?". I am not sure what is the correct answer - yes or no - as I have a DV visa, but have not technically activated it. My confusion arises from the statement “upon endorsement serves as temporary...

Good luck. Positive vibes to you :)

Indeed. You amaze us with your predictions each and every time. But then, it's all data and math.

I am an atheist so Happy Holidays works fine for me. ;)

Except that those coverage are meant to be temporary. I assume, as one commentator mentioned on the blog, that going on prolonged term with these coverage will be ACA non-compliant.

@Britsimon has this excellent post up on his blog about Health Insurance for new immigrants. You may wanna have a look http://britsimonsays.com/health-insurance-for-new-immigrants/

I am not sure about the requirements in individual countries but for that extra peace of mind, I went ahead and created an account for the Primary applicant in my case. It was not used in my country, Fiji, as we collect our passport in person the following day but it does contain a section to...

Happy Holidays everyone :)

Hi Guys One perfect example is this job posting: https://www.appone.com/maininforeq.asp?Ad=430892&R_ID=1109692&Refer=http://www.indeed.com/q-US-Citizen-jobs.html&B_ID=91

Hi Guys Looking at some job sites, some employers specifically mention the need for the applicant to be a US citizen. So does this mean that LPRs need not apply, or can the word "citizen" be interpreted as loosely used term to mean both LPR's and citizens? I assume this will be on a case to...

@Britsimon you can post up my interview experience on your blog, if you think the length is ok. Fully agree. Even winners from third world countries face this issue. In the excitement of being a selectee, we (third world winners) sometimes forget that US is not always a "land of milk and honey...

Hi guys I am sitting down to write this after the excitement has waned down to some extent. Apologies for coming back late :) ----------------------------------------------- We reached the embassy at around 7.45 am for our scheduled interview at 8.30 am. I was a little surprised that the...

It is! As long as you meet the basic requirements and follow the advise on this forum, the interview process is a breeze...

Approved!!! Too excited for details now. Will take my breath and post details soon :D

Thanks eskimo :) Certified copies are definitely not required if originals are available - I did this for that extra peace of mind. I used this guide on Dropbox kindly shared by @EmilyW to organize my documents, however, there is no specific list for Suva, as far as I know. DV winners from...
