DV 2010 Lucky winners from Nigeria meet HERE!

Praiseeeee thy Loooooord...... Kcc has finally given me a date. My interview is 2nd wk of August. Funny enough, i just wanna start my preparation.
 
Hi everyone how ar u all doing sorry 4 coming so late.my interview went fine but was halted for wat d CO Termed as insufficient proof of marriage.so i was asked 2 come 1st wk of august for some other interview 2 clearify my stand.please has any1 hv dis experience b4.cos i'm confused.dis has been why i am silent since yesterday.

hi jolo, well thank GOD first of all that you were still giving the chance to proof urself. i bet some couples were denied right in front of u during ur interview. well this is not a new thing at the embassy. usually happens when the beneficiary is not included at the initial entry and later added when winner gets selected.GOD will guide u thru.
THIS HAPPENED TO ME ,thank GOD i was successful,and im sure few people here as well.though i had not joined this forum then before my interview. i had always followed ur case up before u postponed ur interview date.
THE burden is on you to proof ur relationship is legitimate.
THIS NEXT INTERVIEW IS THE MAIN INTERVIEW..... pls dont mess up here. most likely u will be interviewed by a Nigerian in a seperate room upstairs at the consulate. this guys are just too professional,interlinked with FBI. u both will be asked questions seperately and ur answers must be same.
i wish u best of luck. if u want more info, u can always pm me. my exp is on page 94... i guess.
.....to GOD BE THE GLORY.

I picked up my visa yesterday Tuesday 29 June. I had my interview last Tuesday, 22 June and it went well. I have been waiting to pick up my visa before informing the House. I thank God for his Grace, mercies and favour in my life. On that day after the initial procedure and visa fee paid, I was checked in the interview hall. Then I did my documentation. The duplicate copies of documents were collected from me (I was not asked to show the originals of my credentials but for the police and medical certificates which were collected together with the duplicate copies of my documents). I was later called to window 11 by a white American lady. My interview went thus:

CO: Good morning
Me: Good morning

CO: You are here because you are selected for further processing in the diversity programme
Me: Yes

CO: Raise your hand and swear to tell the truth
Me: With right hand raised, I swear to tell the truth

CO: Thumb print (she directed me on how to place my fingers)
Me: Placed my fingers and thumb print

CO: You know you are qualified for further processing in the diversity programme by education
Me: Yes

CO: So it's you ability to answer the questions that I'll ask that will determine whether you are eligible for the visa or not
Me: Okay!

CO: What's your highest level of education?
Me: Answer

CO: At what University?
Me: Answer

CO: What's the title of your thesis>
Me: Answer

CO: Could you tell me the theme and your conclusion?
Me: Did the lecture ... for about 2 minutes

CO; (The CO raised her right hand and Said) Okay! You are eligible for the visa. Congratulations and welcome to the United States of America
Me: Thank you very much

CO: She asked me to go pick up my visa yesterday, gave a pick up white paper with instructions and a brown slip (not yellow slip) stapled on the pick up slip to me
Me: Thank you very much once again

So I picked up my visa yesterday, Tuesday, 29 June. To God all the honour and glory must be.

To you smalllacrimose, I say a very big thank you for all your wonderful counsels. Yes, you were not frugal in your counsels to me and they paid off. Thanks a million times my dear. To you joequi and many others whose names are too numerous to mention here who felt my pains with me when I had problem in Japan, I say thank you very much to you.

Again, is there any cheap airline one can recommend for me to go to Atlanta? Delta Airline is exorbitant.

Congratulations my brother...I am very happy for you :cool:. This is a new beginning for you. May God show you favor as you start your new life!!!

Izi,

Congratulations, i am very happy for you after your experience in Japan.

@ Donsino, i'm sure ur brain should be capable enough to carry u along. thats y i asked. thanks and wishing u the best.
 
@ jolo, thats great since u were given another chance without denial. just read tru the forum u gonna see some situations similar with urs. I wish u the best in ur 2nd interview.
 
@ Whales any amount is fine coz u are not coming 4 any business or tourism rather u are an immigrant. ur POE wont be Houston, it will be at ur 1st stop in United States b/4 connected to another plane to Houston. Just be sharp coz if u miss to do the necessary things at ur 1st stop, mehn u have missed it. Also watch them closely coz i know u will be a bit confused with their assent coz thats normal 4 every new arriving person especially 4rm Africa. Wishing u a safe trip.
 
Hello everyone, pls pray with me that this new month should be the one to remember in my life....God help us all
 
Hello everyone, pls pray with me that this new month should be the one to remember in my life....God help us all AMEN
 
Hello House, it has been a while since I showed up here, hope everyone is doing great, I would like to congratulate everyone who has had a successful interview lately, and also those that are current I wish you God's favor, and to those waiting to be current, I pray it would come asap.

Please I would like to know if there is a particular amount of money required by individuals proceeding to the USA on non-immigrant visa, I hope those that has traveled would shed more light, and for anyone whose POE was IAH (Intercontinental Airport Houston), please let me know what the procedures are and if i need to go with anything, though I was given an envelope to give to the Immigration upon my arrival which is never to be opened by me, else I get sent back to Nigeria, and I am however leaving it sealed, any important information for my notice would be highly appreciated, as i need to have all these facts asap, before i purchase my ticket.

Thanks for the anticipated info.

My brother there no particular amount you must bring here, you can come with any amount that you have however, you are required to declare the amount of money if its above $10,000.
As for IAH, there is nothing out of the ordinary, just come with that envelope with they give to every one and you will be directed at the immigration desk to another room where you will the immigration and border protection officers who will complete you processes there and will tell you what to do afterwards.
It takes just a few minutes although depending on the number of persons there cos you will see a lot of people.
I guess this helps

Kcc has finally replied me

Ohis,

KCC just reply the 2nd mail i sent to them last week monday today when the 1st one i sent earlier was not forth coming. This new mail had additional information - From the replay, my 2nd letter was sent to me on the 22nd June 2010.

Hope you've gotten a reply from KCC.

@Joequi; they have finally replied me. My interview is scheduled 2nd wk of August. Kcc also confirmed 2me dat my 2NL was sent on d 22nd of June 2010. Since urs n mine was sent d same day... I bliv d package wil get 2us d same day. Have u received urs?
 
Fiso i was called 2 come and pick up a form that they forgot to give me.pls wat is dis form all about?

i bet the form is the 221g letter. which usually reads you have been found ineligible under section 221g of the immigration act. you will return on this date with all the documents you brought today to the interview + additional docs required.
ideally the CO should have given this letter to u right after your interview.
Good luck once again.
