I have family in Akron, Ohio and its not a bad place to live if you live on the more affluent part of town.Every city in the US has its ghetto, so it really depends on what part of town you live and can afford.
Genessee Avenue?? U need to give me a state. There's no way anyone can tell you where a street is.

The flight fee per head depends on the Airline. For NAA, it is about NGN 150,000.00. I don't know for others. Check the rate ahead at http://flynaa.com You can book online and make payment to enjoy the bonanza currently going on. It is the cheapest and allow you lots of luggage.
Jackets were of leather. No head gear, moflas and gloves. Feb may still be cold, but you can cope. We are coping even my little daughter.

Hi house, happy New year to everyone. My husband and I picked up our Visas on 31st December. It was indeed a New year Gift for both of us. We however will not be leaving until Middle February.
 
Very Important

Happy New year to Every one in the house and our dreams will come thru this year.

I have some important issues bothering me, some i av shared before, but i still need some enlightenment. Thanks to modest for his reply AND I NEED MORE HELP FROM HIM AND THE HOUSE.

(1) Early January 2007, i went to the American Embassy in Abuja for a student visa, but i was refused the visa and suprisingly the chief consular did not stamped my passport so it remains virgin, But the documents i presented were not genuine. Pls hope it won't affect me when i go for my interview, becos i learnt am going to have another finger print.

(2) I am in my final year at the University of Lagos and the birth certificate i used in entering school was 1984, now i have changed my year to 1985 during my traveling runs and i won my visa lottery with the new birth year. The question is, as an undergraduate who is still in school though in my yr 4 i need present my academic transcript, but if i send my transcript to the embassy it will read 1984 not 1985, should i stop the sending of my transcript to the embassy bcos of the contradictions or just request my school to write a letter of identification to the embassy instead,to be on the safer side? Hope the consular will not ask of my transcripts? And is a certify true copy of a new birth certificate ok or should i get that of NPC.

(3) In my DS 230 i mistakenly signed the portion of oath, where they wrote that the consular officer will ask me to sign during my interview. Am scared i dont know the solution or will i be given another DS 230 form to sign on my interview date?

PLEASE KINDLY ASSIST ME WITH YOUR OPINIONS, & I WILL BE VERY GRATEFUL!:confused:

if the date of birth that you had on your application form when u applied for a student visa is different from the date of birth on ur visa lottery application, u will be denied a visa as your actual date of birth cannot be verified.
Folks never think about stuff like this when they use fake documents and false age/name when they are dealing with foreign embassies. These are not Nigerians and they don't give a damn. You and some other folks out there are the suckers they are looking for. they Will take ur $775 (watever it is u have to pay before the interview) and deny you the visa because u screwed up. Am sorry man, but only thru a miracle will you come out thru that embassy with a visa unless u make sure that all the documents that u bring to the interview with ur date of birth on it is same with what u filled out on the visa lottery.

I don't think you need to send ur transcripts to the embassy. U just need ur WAEC Certificate.
Wish ya luck man.

when u submit ur documents on ur day of interview,the first thing is to check if u av applied before,if yes,they check the data if they are corresponding to ur papers if they found anything contrary & they ask you & u lie,u may be banned from entering U.S forever,u can read of a couple that was interviewed & the husband was asked how many times was he married,it was easy to ask such a Q because they have all his data,so bro u better think twice b4 u give them $775 & N18,000 for medicals.
it's better if u 4get this chance and still be hopeful than to be banned forever from entering U.S
 
happy new year!

wishing all DV winners a happy new year,may this year be full of testimonies in Jesus' name-Amen

The End

My dear Brothers and Sisters,
Before I get back to mainstream wahala here in Europe I want to use this opportunity to thank you all for your help.
Six weeks after the consular interview in Germany, my wife and myslef have both received the United States Green Card.

Unfortunately I couldn't contribute much in this thread because of my very peculiar situation. Thats just another reason why I want to thank particularly all those who spent so much time here educating and helping others on DV issues. God will bless you abundantly.

For those who may not be fortunate to make it till the end, please don't give up in your quest for finding ways to bring about change in your lives.
May the Good Lord Bless You.

I don't know who u are but u are giving this guy some false information.Do u know why the US embassy do finger Prints??? So that they can keep track of folks information. Even before he walks up to the counter for d interview, his info will already be checked out by the consular and probably he/she would have already made up his/her mind if there's any change in his DOB from the last time he was at the embassy. And again, if the embassy should know that he used fake documents when he applied for a student visa, THEY WILL NOT ISSUE A DV VISA.
Americans are not to be messed with.
 
Thanks, your reply gives me some hope. I will leave everything to GOD as u said, cos i belief God can do the impossible.
 
Please, Modest Am Still Xpecting Your Reply.

I Heard From Somebody That The Embassy Does Fresh Finger Print, Is It True?
