You guys in naija are very lucky. In cameroon we are going through hell. Receiving a second pack or even being interviewed still leaves you at the starting point. Just almost everybody is being asked to ``go and wait for administative processing and further clearance before you could be called for another interview``.IN fact here one goes away with the impresion that ambassy authorities are bent on reducing the number of visa holders to its bearest minimum. I am afraid they classify cameroon as ineligible in the very near future.

Perspective
I understand your frustration, but we should keep certain things in proper perspective.
Firstly, unless you were born in America, going there is simply a privilege/opportunity, and not a right. You know that no other country in the world gives you such an opportunity. So the Americans will determine who comes in and who stays out.
To maintain the integrity of the program and its continuation, they have to do "administrative processing" to stop fraud [fake identity and certificates]and to stop possible terrorists. This can take time. You agree that in the interest of public safety, the US govt. needs to stop terrorists from entering the coutry at all costs. If the terrorists strike, they will kill everybody-black, white, chinese, indian- not only Americans. Many foreigners died on (9/11).
The Embassy needs to show the American people that it is doing all it can, in oder to stop fraud and terrorists, because there are many powerful people in America asking for cancellation of the DV lottery because of fears of fraud and terrorists.
We therefore have 2 options- "administrative processing" or cancel the DV.
Lastly, Cameroon will always remain eligible, since you don't send many immigrants to America. You have to send 10,000 per year for 5 consecutive years before you are dropped.
Cheer up.

Sometime in the near future, nigerians might be ineligible to apply for DV lottery with the rate at which Nigerias are becoming US citizens and thus, bring in family members on perm visa

Success to your students and you the lecturer. Amen
This house seems cold. What is happening?
no specific duration
hello,i don't think there is a specific duration for administration processing.All they try to do is to confirm some of your documents,which basically depends on either the embassy staff carrying out the task or the place the verification is been done. but no worries,as long as your papers are alright,you sure have no problem....Is it on your interview day,that you were given the administrative processing letter?

Adminstrative Processing (AP)
MODEST as I can see you have become an expert on DV immigrant visa. I want you to tell me what you know about AP and what is the minimum time it takes to finish. Precisely, my case is currently undergoing AP and would like to know if there are chances of getting the visa before the end of 2008 fiscal year, please advise.

Administrative processing
Syntaxpro,i think tru most thread and site i have been reading admin processing may take up to three months maximum depend on the issue that warranted the checks.See why dont u tell the house what happened on ur interview day{questions & events} may we can share ideas here together

Administrsative processing can take from a few weeks to over six months. I would advise Syntaxpro to do a search and read the thread on Administrative Processing, there is a lot of helpful info there.
