Reply to Thonia2's question
Hello thonia2,
I will start by congratulating you that your husband was selected as a winner in the dv lottery.My wife also won same and we are seriously preparing our documents.
The name issue on your husband's certificate could be a serious problem and i will advice something be done about it before your interview cos from what u posted on this site, you have a very low case number and may probably recieve your second package soon and your interview may come up in december or january.
From what i read on different forums, the consular officie has a zero tolerance level for name issues like that.
Your husband could go to his school and have something done about it, maybe obtain a cover letter from the registrar that it was actually a typographical error.
That said,as a family(a famly of 4 in your own case), you will need an affidavit of support from either a citizen or a permanent resident of the united states to prove that u will not be a publc charge when u get to america.The person wll be your sponsor and will be required to fill a form (form I-134) which you will take with u to ur consular interview, one for each of your family members.
The consular officer may not even look at your statement of accounts unless the fund is transfarable to US.They are more comfortable with the affidavit of support.
So make haste to get your documents ready.Dv is all about getting your documents right.
I hope i answered your questions.
Thanks.
