Hi Hell Driver 666,
To enquire from KCC abt the receipt of your forms, kindly send an email to them with your full name, complete case number and date of birth. Their email address is kccdv@state.gov.
Sometime ago I was the only person contributing to this thread. Now that you are on board, I think we can give this thread more life.
My contribution to this forum has slowed down since I moved house. I'm now trying to get my internet connection in order, then I'll come back with full swing.

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.

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

Hi Awuk,
Long time no hear from you. Anyway to your question, if you take a critical look at the instructions for filling the I-134 form, the supporting evidence part says and i quote " As a sponsor, you must show you have sufficient income or financial resources to assure that the alien you are sponsoring will not become a public charge while in the US.
You must submit in duplicate evidence of income and resources as appropriate:
a) A statement from an officer of the bank or other financial institutions where you have deposits, identifying the following details regarding your account:
1. Date account opened;
2. Total amout deposited for the past one year; and
3. Present balance.
b) Statement of your employer on business stationery showing:
1. Date and nature of employement;
2. Salary paid; and
3. Whether the position is temporary or permanent.
c) If self employed:
1. Copy of the last income tax return filed; or
2. Report of commercial rating concern"
From the above, my oppinion is that the letter of employment is not bad but a bank statement in addition to it would have been a perfect match. Once your sponsor is working, contact him for his bank statement if possible. If he's not willing to let you have it, i suggest you look for a different sponsor. Remember the rules of the game is that we better be safe than sorry. Please act fast cos 20th of oct is just around the corner.
This is however my candid oppinion, lets see what others will say.
My interview is scheduled for December and they told me my 2nl would be posted this week.
May the favor of the Lord rests with you. Try and gather all your documents and go through them as often as possible to make sure that everything is intact as you have been advising people here.
Hey guys I am new to this forum and I am a 2010dv winner. I would like to be part of this forum especially this thread. I read thru all the thread and you are the right people that I should be talking to. i wna to join, learn and share experiences with you all. Iam so happy for all my friends that are telling their 2nd letters. It must be exciting.
I would like to know wat reasons may come up and one doesn't get the 2nd letter? How does one have to wait to start the medical tests?
Thank you all who take time and reply to us.

Thank you all who take time and reply to us.
Hi Sebulonde,
Welcome to the thread. Well from what i've learn since joining this thread and also going through the Nigerian thread, it's not likely for one not to receive a 2nd NL. One may not receive it if the correct postal addrress wasn't provided and also if one number is too high to the extend that the dv visas for the fical year gets finished or the dv program comes to an end.
With the medicals, if u look at the signatures from both this and the Nigerian thread, u realise that most people go for their medicals b4 they receive the 2nd NL. To be sure of this, kindly call any of the medical providers to enquire.
Do well to provide your signature and lets see what other members of the house will say. WELCOME ONCE AGAIN.
Thank you so much. Feeling like at home right now. I would like to help me find out whether my CN is high or low 2010AF00037
. And when it's likely to be current? I spend so much time on the net but I don find people logged in. I would like to chat some time. I think we should make friends on this forum. Thank you again.gud you reminded mi..lemmi rush go ghana go!!
