thanks tricksam. medicals costed me 14,500k. but they told us that it depends with an individual age and health. i was injected only 2 injections that made my bill low. others were receiving 3 injections and paid 17k whole medication. one lady got 6 injections and paid over 24k. they check evrything, blood,eyes,ears,pressure,removing clothes and doctor detects any form of pain by pressing you randomly whole body,x-ray at nairobi hospital,weight,height and many things. its a whole day process then pick envelope the following day at 3pm.
I now have all docs ready for 28th june.
I got also a formal letter from my host which am just trusting they will accept.
Thanks. Doctors need 2 photos and embassy 2 photos. KCC send me all forms via email and so they indicated for me the number of photos needed and locations for snapping them or taking shots. they also gave me names of all doctors including IOM that i used. God is good. My letter got lost up to now but i have evrything via email.
Hello Everyone, I have a question.
I have noticed that sometimes, in the same country, someone with a lower case number may be scheduled later (in the same month) that someone with a somewhat higher CN. I was told that this is due to the fact that once one's date become current, what KCC consider is now the date they received the applicant's form. Can you confirm if this is true ?.
My concern is the fact that my CN is AF70*** but I sent my form in December. I was told that once africa becomes current, those with much higher case number, like AF80*** may be scheduled much earlier than me, because they will also be current and provided they sent their form earlier than me. Is it true ?

Parsitau - those seem to be the standard questions most people get asked at the interview. I wasnt asked much different from that. In all, it took about 5 minutes and we were done. Our financial docs were not checked (we didnt have a sponsor - not sure you really even need one !!) and our university paperwork was pushed back to us and they asked for our high-school equivalent qualification instead. A quick browse of that, with no particular questions asked about high-school and we were done.
My dv visa interview experience Nairobi
My interview was at 10pm june 28 monday. Security check and medicals envelope stamped at security pass. Am single applicant. Documents taken at window for immigrants and green cards. Highschool cert, good conduct, medicals, birth certificate, passport and lady asked if i have a host letter normal letter but not a must, then i gave out then said ok its same adress.
Then was told seat down to be called. Later i was called at window 7 for finger prints then seat down to be called now for interview.
After 20 minutes i was called at window 10 which is a window for all dv applicants.
Consular; how are you?
Me; am fine.
Consular; you are mr.so and so?
Me; yes.
Consular; what will you be doing in USA when you go there?
Me; work and further studies.
Consular; what will you be studying?

Consular; what are you doing currently?
Me; farming.
Consular; are you married?

Consular; do you have children?

Consular; i return this originals documents to you, highschool cert and birth only. Then says as he writes on a receipt date and time to pick visa. Come on thursday at 3pm and pick your visa.
Me; thank you very much.
Consular; okey, thank you sir.
Then i walk away.
They even dont want college papers. And the consular was just asking many people who will host you and who is he/she to you? They dont even need affidavits or host letters. Don't stress yourselfs guys. That process is very simple with simple questions.
But am sorry for those who married because of green card. They denied 2 couples.
I am so happy guys am through and i thank God. Am praying for those who are yet to go for interviews.
AMEN AMEN.

trixsam.
My formal letter was just adressed to dear sir/madam.
First adress is for host.i.e the adress you used as state you are going.
Second adress below is Embassy adress. It states that he was ready to host me until i get a job and be able to leave alone. The letter was a scanned letter from host via email. So i printed out. He signed and scanned.
Wish you good luck trixsam. Many people did not even give out their letters. And nothing like form i-134.

Hey Paristau did you collect your Visa On Thursday??......Please keep us updated ...and when you went for the medicals did you carry your immunization card...the yellow one
Trixsam.
Yes i went on thursday and when i reached the gate it was 3:10pm of which i was turned away back that i was late. Then i was told to go the following day friday at 8am. So i was not punctual. I went on that friday at 7:50am and was allowed in and i was given my visa at 8am and minutes. The visa is inside the passport and is valid for 6 months then it will be added when you reach USA. I was also given a yellow big envelope sealed and it won't be opened until you reach port of entry in USA. That envelope is for all dv visa people.
Yes when you go for medicals carry any medical record but me i did not have it and all people that we were together did not have even a single record. The doctor will just ask you if you were treated while young this and this injections. Like chicken pox, polio etc. Then it would reduce your bill.
So my visa is with me here at home relaxing. Am planning to travel August third week. Sina haraka.
