Good to know, congrats once again. Thank you for the prayers.
congrats man and pls continue to update us on your journey.God bless you.
eeii, no be easy ooo. lil kay just two weeks and 300 visa pick ups. Am afraid ooo, can Ghana get to 7% country limit before the end of September? If within two weeks 300 visa picks then may be total visa pick-ups from October could over 1000. Folks do u think this could be possible.

not all of the visas issued were immigrant visa.to my understanding the 7% country limit are for the dv category only..i stand to be corrected tho..
lil kay, abt the 300 visa pick-ups, were they all dvlottery
gideon1on1, i understand u perfectly, bt if the 300 visa visa picks up were all dvlottery then am sure the 7% country limit could be reached before september 2014. I stand to be corrected

pardon me for gate-crashing a question meant for lil-kay but I'm not sure not all of them were for dv category..And i was right about the 7% country limit meant for dv category only..it clearly states on http://www.travel.state.gov/visa/bulletin/bulletin_6050.html under the dv category that 'DV visas are divided among six geographic regions. No one country can receive more than seven percent of the available diversity visas in any one year'

Britsimon posted something on another thread..i think it might put an end to your worry..so here's the thing 'The worry for a country is that no one country can receive more than 7% of the global quota visas in any year. The quota is 55,000 (reduced by up to 5000 visas for the NACARA program) We generally work off 50,000 available visas, but I actually think we will see nearly the whole 55,000 this year. So that means the country cutoff for any country is 3850 visas (including derivatives), and could be as low as 3500'
Ghana had 3,945 selectees,if we are to do the mathematics,3945-3850 will give us 95.I am sure most selectees for one reason or another might choose not process their case.Others don't know they've won.So realistically you stand a chance of getting a visa provided you get your docs right..
I will advice you to stay calm,there's no need for over thinking,just get your docs right and most of all never cease praying..

Sorry - I missed the concern.
Vladek is correct. There is NO WAY Ghana will hit the 7% limit. In 2011 they had 6002 selectees and only achieved 2460 visas. The selectee to approved visa rate is less than 50%. So Ghana probably won't get more than about 2000 visas this year.

well i thought since the number of selectee is lower than that of the previous rate..the approval rate will go a bit higher than the previous years..I guess i was wrong..thanks for helping out..fingers crossed..

That could be true - lower numbers but better quality applications - yep could be true. However, there is still no way Ghana can get 3500/3850 visas from 3900 selectees.
you are welcome bro,we all here for ourselves.
About or certificate u go to weac say u want to confirm your result to american embassy they will take around 50gh and will do DAT for u . They will sent the letter to the embassy so make sure u have received or 2nl before u do that. Also take a letter from or headmaster too. No fears..
