DV-2011 Winners from Kenya Report Here!

@ Becks n Nyasuna

Al the best pals!

@ Patem

you can send in the Ds 260 without the Address but by the time of the interview you MUST have found one. Its needed merely to send you your SSN and green card once you are in US.

First things first. send in your documents then you'll worry about the finances between now and your interview date.its a long wait.
 
hi. am a dv 2011 selectee. I thank God for giving us the opportunity this year. I would like to ask a question and please assist if you would happen to have an answer. D+ in my final results. Do you think i can be denied visa because of my grade in maths and the final grade aswell. Please help if you have any information on this.

Kindly whoever has already gone for the interview update us on what happens and the questions frequently asked if you are going as single. Also what is the minimum grade of high school do they pick? What if one did not perform well in mathematics? can it affect? please help

my interview experience---------success!!

first and foremost i thank God and all those who earnestly asked him to see me through.
My day started as 5 am, i drove into london to my friend's place then connected with the underground train. There were delays and this really freaked me out. I managed to arrive 15 minutes to my interview which was scheduled at 8am. I kept my phone in a nearby pharmacy.
The queue wasnt long and i sat down to wait for my name to be called. I got talking with a ghana lady which made me relax a bit. I was called to submit my docs.All he took ws my birth cert, 2 police reports and high school cert. He asked me how i intended to support myself to which i said i will seek employment. He gave me a cd of my x-ray.
I paid the $819 and sat down to wait for the real interview.

1 hr later:
I was asked to raise my right hand and swear bla bla bla....he didnt ask 1 single question but only remarked that "u got lovely fingers there", blush blush and relaxed even more. He asked for my kenyan fingerprints and attached to the rest of my stuff and then he said "go and pay the courier service, you will receive ur pass in 3-5 working days together with a brown envelope which you shouldnt open. Enjoy your stay in America".

That was it pple!!!! Isnt God great?

Congratulations Beck...We have faith that even the rest of us who are yet to go for the interview that we will also succeed just like you...May God bless you.
 
Congrats Becks and Nyasuna. Now those who remain are those with the very high numbers? Congrats to DV 2012 winners too, had applied for my family and no-one won :( Please read through the forum from the first post before you post questions, I'm sure you question will have been answered.

Still settling in, been very busy running up and down trying to get my SSN and green card, which have still not arrived (9 days later). I really hope they get here soon so I can get my driver's license and register my car (found a good deal) and apply for jobs. I have some prospective employment which depends heavily on that driver's license so I pray the documentation gets here soon.

All the best to those about to come this way, and if you have a Kenyan driver's license, you may want to consider getting an international driver's license from AA because some states like where I stay can let me drive with my Kenyan+International for upto 60 days, which would be great for job seekers. It'll cost maximum 2k so I think its worth looking into unless you have enough money/a very flexible host who can get you everywhere you need to go (though after a while you start feeling like you're bugging them).
