That is great you have finished everything very early. I am also hopping to see my number popup. I thought we will have the VB yesterday like the previous months, but this month kept me waiting. It is really hard to wait. Anyways, it is for the best. Bytheway did you authenticate the marriage certificate for your husband too or only one certificate? (at MoFA)

@Fikir12 authentication of one marriage certificate is enough. That is what we did.
 
@rolex123 while authenticating ESLCE first am required to go to the high school i went to but i couldnt find my record 9-12 grade report. Should i just take the ESLCE report and will they authenticate without asking 9-12 grade report what was your experiance.

Hi @biah, but you should also present your 9-12 grade report for the interview. It was the document that the CO has checked seriously taking significant time to watch every column and row on the page. In our case, we took an old grade report from home to the school for verification and authentication with stamp and signature at the back.

@biah to authonticate ESLCE you don't need to go to high school , you need to go one office near 'arat kilo ' branch of MoEd then ministry of forieng affair.
But please follow @MB1xxx advice to make ready your high school transcript .

"One office near arat kilo branch ..." Yes @biah, Rolex is refering to the Ethiopian National Examination Agency (ENEA) located in a building in front of the residence of the Patriarch of Ethiopian Orthodox Church.
As @rolex123 said they don't need high school transcript because they have all the ESLCE records with them (you can authenticate old certificate you may have with you or request them a new one).
 
@rolex123 @MB1xxx Thank you guys for the help really appreciate it. @MB1xxx you went to the interview with your family did the CO asks specifically for the 9-12 grade report plus regarding the beneficiaries did they ask ur wife/husband for 9-12 grade report, copy of degree and work experiance etc. what was your experiance. Tnx in advance.
 
@Fikir12 authentication of one marriage certificate is enough. That is what we did.
Dear MB1xxx, thank you very much for your answer. I will authenticate only one at MoFA, however I have a stamp on both certificate at "wulina Masirega". I don't want to go back there that is why I did the stamp.
 
Guys, what is going on with the April VB? I thought they will release it on 10th max. Wow it kept me busy these days since I am hoping I will be current on May.
 
@biah

Tnx in advance.
Hi @biah, you don't need any educational document of derivatives (spouse, children) for the interview. Of course, you need it latter on after relocating to US for further education or for job as the case might be.
 
@MB1xxx @rolex123 Tnx guys for the support you made the points crystal clear from what i have learned all i need to authenticate is my ESLCE (BSc & MSc if we want), Birth certificate of the three of us and Marraige certificate then we are done and will wait for the big day. @MB1xxx @rolex123 did they ask for work experiance documents of the beneficiary b/c if they do we have to visit previous employers to make the documents ready.

All you need for beneficiaries is proof of relationship to you (ie marriage or birth certificate), medical, and police record.

@SusieQQQ has put it precisely regarding documents of beneficiaries. On the other hand, I hope you take note of our previous remark about your 9-12 grade report (because you did not mention it in your list above).
