Sorry, but you don't need an affidavit of support as a Ghanaian. That got waived way back 2011 for us and you don't also need a bank statement. All the peopled I have coached from 2011 didn't have to go to the embassy with those. I hope this helps? Just don't stress about them.
Let me know if you need anything else

And secondly my few friends who have gone through the dv in Ghana said they never asked for it. But you can still call the US Embassy for your conscience sake. All the best
 
Folks, there are many more threads online discussing the dv lottery, one of which by God's grace i found very useful is a convergence point for out sister country Nigeria. Some of you may be aware of it already...
There are interesting ideas being shared there from which i personally learnt something very important, yet to see that being discussed on this thread. its all about being enlightened as much as possible before going in for your interview so that all possible blunders one may commit and thereby risk losing the visa is eliminated.

This year is a bit difficult to guess, but probably Jan/Feb for your interview.

You have to show you won't become a public charge so typically this can be done through personal savings, job offers, affidavits of support and so on - it depends on your individual situation. Some embassies are insisting on aos.

i enquired from the US Embassy in Accra concerning presenting affidavits of suppport but the response was that we would not be required to present any of such affidavits but like said i think it would be wise to present documents on one's acquired assets especially those that can be quite easily liquidated to use as support of ones self till work is secured....
i'm workin on mine at the moment.
cheers!!!

Really Roselyna, u mean no affidavit of support & no bank statements???
i kno of d former but not of the latter...
 
guys, medicals in Ghana take at least a week, at most 2 weeks to process.
Enjoyed doing mine 2day:cool:. very relaxing.
Processing the Police report was rather very stressful & normal processing takes 3weeks.
Note the processing times and know how to link it to your interview dates.

That is good to see that confirmed in writing from the Accra Embassy - thanks for posting! My understanding is that a small number of Embassies are requiring an Affidavit of Support, perhaps just in countries where they don't trust bank statements etc.

Obviously you must still prove your ability to support yourself financially, so make sure you have documentation to address that question.

gh50, you wouldn't want to get there between 10am and 12:30pm cos at exactly 12:30 u will be put on hold till they get back from break around 2pm. numbers are huge, waiting periods long, winding queues, few staff doing the processing. i personally think u might wan2 get there by 8am or late afternoon around 3pm when d place is very calm.
took a picture and waited for my turn only to be told well over an hour of waiting that my picture, together with that of others, was corrupted so i had to take another one and join another line....u need a lot of patience when you get there. u may stand throughout your waiting time cos there are few seats...i pray none of u experiences that.
Eat well b4 u go there...:D
the fee is GHC50.00. go along wit ur passport.
all the best
