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...
the fee is GHC50.00. go along wit ur passport.
all the best

Thanks for the info lil kay,I would personally be waiting to do the police certificate application just around the same time the 2nd NL drops but how long is it valid. On the medicals too I believe you would have to go and book an appointment after the 2NL and how many days did it take for you to complete your medicals.

Police report valid for 6months
No need to book appointment for the medicals...eat well & just walk in. its a 1 day process, infact within 2hours u shd b done with taking your 4vaccines, xray, physical exams, labs, seeing the doctor...etc & prepare for questions like: "r u on drugs", " hav u had any sti's b4"... and please be frank...i learnt (from some beneficiaries of the dv program ) that being sincere opens the door way for u to be treated before releasing ur report...

...JUS GO EARLY...Was there by 8:05am. maybe that's how com i finished early, by 10:30 i was off...

Hi

Ghanaba10, welcome to the forum. I suggest you go to Waec immediately they give you something indicating that you really sat for the SSSCE in the year you mentioned. The photocopy is not enough but still take along on the day of interview. They will ask about your school since you say you are a student, so be thinking of what to tell them.
How long have you been a pupils' teacher?
And what is your case number?

Please, if you thoroughly ready the Dv instructions it indicate you should either have the original certificate or a certified copy. So what you would have to do is make like three photocopies and send it to the school you completed for the head of the institution to endorse with a True Certified Copy stamp and it will be accepted.

God see us all through successfully .

Hi Lucky Winners.

Please share if you have any idea on this. My wife won the lottery as single. Since we were not legally married she entered the lottery as single. She got pregnant in December that is some few months after registration and we got legally married in March this year. Fortunately for us she won the lottery as we checked on 1st May so we had to fill the initially forms and post to KCC which we did, here included me as her husband (beneficiary) and God has blessed us with a sweet baby girl in this month of August. We just checked her mail and saw our 2nd notice which indicated her as the primary applicant and me as a beneficiary to go for the interview come 1st Day of October which I hope will be successful in Jesus' name. Now the question is, how do I include my baby girl ? By the way I have sent an inquiry email to KCC but they have not replied yet. So if you have any idea kindly help me out.
Thank you.

First of all many congratulations for winning, getting married and the birth of your child. What a year you are having!!!!

Your daughter can also be included on the DV process. You should complete a 230 form for her and take the photos. Send the forms, photos and a copy of the birth certificate to KCC by email. Given the short notice before your interview you should take all the same forms and details to the embassy on October 1st. I don't think they will receive the forms and update the embassy in time for your interview, but if you go with all the forms ready for your daughter you should come away with 3 Green Cards!

Your daughter will need a passport and she will also need to have the medicals. You have a lot to do!

In addition to sending KCC a DS230 form with your daughter's details, I suggest you fill out one each for yourself and your wife. The forms KCC currently has on record for you indicates you both have no children, so you both need to fill out these forms and provide your daughter's information on both of your forms. You can email all the documents to KCC, and don't forget to include the baby's birth certificate too.

Be sure to keep copies of these forms and take them with you to your interview (with the email you're using to send them to KCC).

Hi mates,for the purposes of the medical examination does it mean that any vaccination records i have regardless of how old it is would would be acceptable for the medical process? thanks in advance

 

[nuna6]

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

I want to add that its indeed true, before I posted this I inquired from 3 friends who also won the lottery and they were neither asked for affidavit of support nor bank statement. But my problem is we are a family of 3 and I may not be to get enough funds to meet the minimum requirement. The people you coached, were some of them having beneficiaries?

I believe once it that not expire before the day you intend travellling. It is always advisable to do medicals at most 3 to 4 weeks before your interview, because there are instances where cases go on Admnistrative Processing and such cases last for a number of months and if your medicals is 2 or 3 months earlier, it might not cause any problems but who knows.

its just my thoughts.

Case No - 2014AF000123**
Entry Checked - 5th May 2013
Forms Sent To KCC - 3rd June,2013
Forms Updated via email - 11th Aug 2013
2nd NL - Soon. In Jesus Name!

Interview - US embassy, Accra
Visa pick up- Nov 2013 (In Jesus name!)

Thanks nuna but my question is on the vaccination records for the medical exam. The question is that regardless of the age of the vaccination record can it be presented for the medical exams?
