Dv 2008 Lucky Winners From Nigeria

Yeah! am very surprised you ve not got your SSN as well, because it should take a week to get it. When i arrived on a sunday, the next day i went to SSN office and i was told it will be sent to me in 8-10 days and i got it truely as they said.

I think the mistake you did was that you were waiting for them to send it, but it does not work that way, you have to first go and apply for it, its not automatic. So if you have not gone to their office, that is what you need to do. Infact, a friend told me she got her SSN within 3 days.

Hope these helps.

Best wishes!

i actually went to the office when i came and the receptionist derailed me by telling me to come after 26 days if i do not recieve it.even when i applied my name was not there in the system from the main office.i got my welcome notice and was told inside that my forms where recieved from the port of entry on Nov 3, ie one month after my arrival.after a series of inquiries ive realised that i passed thro the wrong port ot entry ,ie Dulles in DC.they work at a snail's pace.there is a friend in Virginia who is suffering the same fate and also passed thro Dulles.I may be presuming but i will advice all members who are scheduling their flights to aviod Dulles in DC

Is 2009 Dv lottery entry application is DOUBLE or NOT ?

Hello House,
Please help me to judge this case & REPLY me whether this 2009 ENTRY APPLICATION is DOUBLE ENTRY OR NOT ?

I was aslo among successful dv2009 applicants that received Notification Letter from KCC (USA),but i have little problem during my application.
Around october last year 2008,i received a mail from an association called American Association Immigrant(AAI) that i can apply for dv lottery for free and with some others free benefit if i register with them for free.But this association will collect all the applicants data and apply at Federal Gov. Official site (dvlottery.state.gov).It is not a fraud site when i glance through their site to see the service that they are rendering, etc
Then i did so,but after some weeks that i applied via this site i received a message from this association.Here is the message i received from AAI below:



AAI:

Dear Bunga,

We have been unable to upload your US. Green Card Lottery application to the US. Government web site as submitted.

To confirm you are entered in time for the current DV-2009 program, you must re-submit your entry directly to the US. Government site at www.dvlottery.state.gov.

Do not worry, THIS WILL NOT RESULT IN A DOUBLE ENTRY.

We apologize for this inconvenience. However, we want to be certain you are entered well before the deadline of December 3rd.

TO BE SURE, PLEASE GO TO www.dvlottery.state.gov AND RE-ENTER NOW!

Good luck and best wishes,
Customer Support Team




Diamond_009:

So House when i received this message,i did so and i re-applied at www.dvlottery.state.gov,unfortunatly I was among successful dv2009 applicants and also some of my friends that applied during that period received this message aswell.

So guzy,
Please help me to judge this case & REPLY me whether this 2009 ENTRY APPLICATION is
DOUBLE ENTRY OR NOT ?
Please House await your suggestion

Hi,

Fear not, if you've applied twice they would have noticed at the initial selection stage and disqualify you. But since you got the notice/letter you're safe. See the yellow section of the attachment for more details.

Good Luck.
