DV 2009 Lucky winners from Nigeria

This forum rocks!! I have an F1 visa but been out of status 5 yrs but was still going on with my studies and graduated May 2009. My I 94 does not have a return date, but has Duration of Stay (DS). My lawyer told me I should do CP and they could still offer me a visa if am invited for an interview since technically DS means that I was not offered a return date per se. I was further advised that as long as I never got any letter to depart the US am ok. Unlawful Presence only occurs by an F1 if they get a deportation letter. For me to just have an inkling of confidence with my lawyer's advise, I just need to hear of just one case where this was succesful. My # is AF20100014xxx. Any advise out there? Any examples.

Congrats my brother. I'll suggest you scan those docs to KCC via email with some other evidence and also go to the embassy with the baby's passport, birth cert., other naming photographs and copy of the email you sent to KCC.

I am very sure you will be fine.

Good luck.

Dear Toluwase,
Pls i need you to clarify the issue about AOS(I-134).
1. Where you asked to produce it?
2. Did you submit separately for each of your family(Wife n baby) members?
3. About how much did your sponsor fill in the form? I know this is confidential pls just give me a range?
4. Apart from the form, did you go with statements of account from your sponsor?

Pls i want to know in order to get a similarity from my sponsor too.
Thanks a lot.
 
Wekere!

1.The stardard is if you have a family you need to have this document.I think ist just to prove to the consular that you will not bw a public charge most especially as a family is involved. My advise is you get this handy if you have a family its better to be over prepared.
2.I submitted for each person though the principal applicant must have all the required docs. my wife 's educational certificate were not required while my kids just needed medicals.birth cert and immunization docs same foe me and my wife.
3. He attached his copies of his Tax return papers and the value of his property. As per amount the only figure I remember is the value of the house $170k. while the Tax return is a text book on its own so i didnt bother to read it- (see the guidance on how to fill the I134 form it would give you details of what is needed)
4 yes i went with it and valuation of my stocks etc- Though the lady didn't collect it however like i said above i had all this ready should the consular ask for it.

Bye and Gods favor

Congrats man. Good to know you have your date already. I didn't mean any other docs i meant your normal interview docs.

Good luck.

Thanks very much for your reply. I want to know if i have to send the DS230 form by email to kcc or I should just fill another and take it along on the interview day.
 
Hi Guys, I'm very happy to inform the honorable members of the house that my son's interview has been scheduled for August 24. Got the good news today when I put a call through to KCC. I'm very grateful to y'all for the invaluable input that's made on this forum. Lots of Kudos to y'all folks. My profound gratitude goes to our Almighty Father in heaven.
I've got a question though. Besides the $775 which has to be paid either in Naira or US Dollars at the embassy/consulate, would one be required to pay a visa issuance fee as well ?
I sincerely hope & pray my son eventually secures an immigrant visa.

I serve a God who never fails. To Him be the glory.
