This reply stems from another thread
http://forums.immigration.com/showthread.php?t=304657

may be you guys can discuss too....

I agree with ak47!

It seems those of you from that area of the world, at least 50%(~3k from each country) from the originally eligible get the visas at the end.
at $775 per head, its about $2.4 million as visa fees!!

Now, it is a statistical possibility that 85-90% of the originally eligible may have applied and so 35-40% got rejected, i.e about 2500 ppl and visa fees of ~1.5 to 2 million $ just gone to Uncle Sam from the country's foreign reserves. That is lot of money!!

Now, are all those 2500 ppl crooks? or all those 3000 ppl good? certainly not, statistically its always a mix due to the reputation of that part of the world.(or in any part for that matter)

I think the US embassies there (do they care?) have a moral obligation to address this problem together with host govts, so that especially the 'vulnerable' could be saved from loosing their hard earned money.

Vulnerable I mean those who do not have much access to information and those who think that this is something the US govt give them on a platter! There should be more detailed 'country specific' information that KCC/DoS give out to people, together with more on site advisory services and may be pre screening of documents/qualifications for some low fee. (of course with no obligations attached to the final visa interview outcome)

But again the bottom line is DoS is only aiming at an overall 50% success rate 'cos they have only so much DV s to give.

But as I said its just a moral obligation. But to expect that from them at a part of a world so rampant with fraud...thats another matter!

I think an NGO or an INGO could help too, its lot of money to waste!
I truly believe more than any govt (US or otherwise) those of you who are now in US from DV program, should band together and should help your fellow countrymen.

Just my 2c!

congrat in advance to the people that are current in this month and would be going for interview. my advice to you is that you should not go with dollars but naira bcos not all dollar are accepted at the embassy.my brother was not given visa bcos not all the dollar that he took to the embassy were accepted and when he resheduled, he was not given visa bcos the visa had finished but they did not tell us and gave him 11 sept 2009. so a word is enough for a wise. best of luck in your interview.......

Hello Joseph, hope this helps:

DURING YOUR INTERVIEW:
Don’t panic, they are just people like you and I, try to relax, if you are tense you might not come across as nervous but as someone with something to hide. Try as much as possible to be calm, be Bold, smile and look the interviewer in the eyes (please never look down or away, to the American, it is a sign of cowardness whilst it is seen as a sign of respect in Nigeria).

Don’t play smart by bringing fake documents because they will verify and they have a special anti-fraud unit at the embassy.

Reply with exact answers that are specific to questions asked and never volunteer information that the consular officer didn't ask for. Think before you answer any question. The more you talk, the more the questions – each answer gives birth to new questions. Even if you don't know the answers, try to use your head to say something intelligent and close to the answer but never give an answer you are not sure of or fabricate a response because you can be sure that you will be interviewed by someone who has an idea, background or degree in your field of study. Only discuss what you know best cos in some cases questions will be generated from your Response/reply. In the course of your discussion, try not to fake anything or exaggerate in order to impress.

Below are sample questions from previous threads. However, my advice to you and myself is to be as prepared as possible. Looking at the interview details from previous treads I have come to notice that no two interviews are the same, if you are lucky, ur questions will be generated from ur responses but for some people it is not that way, for others, they get the simplest of questions such as date of birth etc and after a minute or two, the visa is granted to them. So since one does not know what category one will fall into, it is best to be as prepared as possible. Compare these interview details from Nigerian DV lottery winners at the US embassy in Lagos. (extracted from previous threads)

Ultimately though, I strongly agree with a dv winner from the previous thread who wrote -

“u have to understand that while it pays to go with genuine certificates,it neither by might nor by power.There are so many people who have gone with genuine documents and were still denied visas.This is where faith comes in.Remember,the race is not to the swift,the battle is not to the strong,neither bread to the wise,not yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill(Ecc. 9:11).More over,it is not of him that wills nor of him that runs,but of God that showeth infinite mercy.

so when all ur papers are intact and genuine,u commit ur ways to the Lord so that he will direct ur paths.It is not of our efforts,it just by the grace of God that we have been selected and we can only make it by the same grace.
God Bless you all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”


Praise be to the Lord our God who crowns us in victory
 
@ crownednvictory, gud research work on d past experience.
in addition, white folks are always interested in a relationship talk b'cos they are too emotional so married winners u will always have alot to talk and it must be the same with what u partner says.
less i 4get, intimate questions about ur sponsor are not that question but if u've time to get their details PLS do to be on a safer side.
pls am looking forward 4d first successful interview in 2010 fiscal year b4 d end of d week. AMEN

It is very heartening to see that both US embassies in Nigeria and Ghana DO NOT have on their websites any detailed country specific instructions/advise for DV winners/applicants.

Do you get any 'specific' instructions in paper with your second NL from KCC ?

Following is an important guideline the Nigerian embassy has (may be same with Ghana) that effectively put even people with low CNs to the end of the line and waiting !!

Please note that there are a limited number of visas available for applicants from Nigeria, and the number of visas is a lot less than the number of applications selected. Applicants who honor their original appointment are given first priority for these visas; applicants with complete documentation for their rescheduled interview will be given second preference; all others will be considered as slots become available

And the Accra embassy summarizes the 'fraud' problem they face as follows;

Please note: The U.S. Embassy in Accra considers visa fraud to be a serious issue. According to U.S. visa regulations, applicants who submit forged or altered documents or who make a false statement may become permanently ineligible for a visa to the United States. In addition, applicants who commit fraud may be subject to prosecution under Ghanaian law
