Hope you prepare well and as we await the postive testimony.
We continue praying for kamauz and njugunut. where is njugunut? I miss you on the forum!
mamaizoo we are here for one another. lets get the letters or affidavit of support from our sponsers, no taking chances.

I have a question here., when I was filling out my forms I did not indicate the address of where I will be picking my G-Card
cause I was not sure by then, now that I have a sponsor and I have the address,should I send the details or wait till the interview day?

Hi all,
couple of questions.
Scenario:
Winner of DV lottery was in the USA, 2003-2006 as MALE F1 student. While there, got married to US citizen and they had a Child (US Citizen). Marriage didn't work, divorced (Got divorce documents). He withdrew application to change/adjust status from F1 to PR filed for him by EX-wife before any interviews. USCIS acknowledged withdrawal of this application. Student was on status and in good standing with immigration 2003-2006. Student left USA 2006, went to Canada. Now re-married, with 2 year old child(Canada Citizen). Student is a PR of Canada now and is back to University in Canada for MSC, Engineering.
Student entered DV lottery as married, details of wife and child (Canada) provided in initial entry and subsequent forms to KCC.

Questions:

1. Does this student need a police CERT from the USA? Lived there for more than 6 months but is it neccessary? Police certs from Canada and Country of birth will be got. Only 3 countries DV winner has lived in.
2. Any advice regarding any potential problems for this winner? Any one had a similar experience or read a similar experience here?

Just trying to cover all bases...many thanks.
 
congratulations menjo,and may he thats able to do exceedingly abudantly above all guide you through your interview and prepare well as you ensure that all your documents are intact,as for the fellow forumites am hopin by 2morrow we shall have the march bulletin. case no:33...
 
Has anyone gone for interview with a traditional or customary marriage certificate(without a wedding)? Please let us know.
 
Hi all,
i have one question...at the interview to prove that i completed high school can i use the kenya secondary school leaving certificate?
i am in college now but i am not graduated yet, so i wanted to know if this school leaving certificate is fine bcs i believe the university has my kcse.
thks a lot and good luck to all kenyans!

Hi Guys,
Olyn, just update KCC and give them the details of where they will send ua G-Card. Changed my mailing address Monday through the same.

@Iwmi, pliz get the cert from the university, the leaving cert does not show your grade and is not a tangible evidence that you cleared high school as compared to the KSCE cert.

@ Ranaty2002, did you marry b4 or after you received your 1st NL? You will have to prove b4 the CO that your marriage is genuine, that you did not marry bcoz you won the green card may be through some photos from the time you guys met to the time of the marriage and even after, or a recording of the marriage ceremony if there was one. Other forumites can correct me on this however.

@nyuasuna relax, you are current in March:

Read this from the visa bulletin:

Every blessing to all
 
@mamaizoo

ranaty2002, Then you don't have a problem. They may ask why it took you long to register the marriage, just be ready with an answer for them. It only becomes an issue for people who marry after they receive their 1st NL.

Iwmi, Can they give you a letter then for the purposes of the interview. Try see if they can give you one confirming they have the cert with them.
