DV-2011 winners from SRILANKA Report here

dv-2011 winners from Srilanka

Hello , i have a question i got the sponsor letter from USA stating my name in short. But my passport carries the full name. Will it be a problem. please advice me thanks.

That's not a problem. And Spenser letter scan copy also accepted by the US embassy

and This is enough .. Spencer letter is simple letter
 
Today another Sri lankan had his interview in US Embassy Colombo. His CN is around 44000.
He says he has not mentioned his "Mohammed" part in his application but on Passport.
How ever he got a pending paper today saying there is some thing wrong in his case number and it should be approved by DOS.
I suspect Embassy want to get a clearance or some thing like that from US before issuing his visa.

PS

CO wanted to correct this on papers and the system but SL lady has advised not to accept since there was a similar case even in the last year which was not resolved.

Can this applicant expect his visa before the end of September.

they told me that my commerce pass & sinhala pass finally they are considered.

I asked go my self first & settle there then get the others later. because I have already paid. what you all think.... I will lost my money again...? or is there any chance.... I think my all reports docs still valid.... hope yours quickest replies

Well, as far as i can see.........you are through.
No, you can't do for family later...IT HAS TO BE NOW!! (before 9/30)

As I said before, they assessed you incorrectly (and your input for your own support did not help them either)
Glad that they realized things in perspective even later.

If you think you want to come, if you are ready to go through the initial 'hardships' of settlement in a new land, if your family is ready for it, GO FOR IT....NOW!!
If the police reports of other family are ok then they would have no probs, I M SURE!

Good Luck!

Hi Bro,

i really donno why did the local staffs who are working at the embassy did not inform about this to counselor. Having commerce and Sinhala pass. Those counselors does not understand anything about what is the first language while looking at the G.C.E o/l certificate that is issued from the Department as far as that is being said by the assistant(local guys).

At least local staffs should say it even na as a Sri Lankan , because it's not 10 or 100 LKR, per-head
almost 100,000LKR. One thing i am definitely sure, all this matter is for money money money. Dear brother i am sure that you will get your VISA go ahead since they have given you a chance. On the other hand they need money.

me too waiting for the VISA. My case is weired one. ill let you know guy'z next month.

Gud Luck Bro....

Hi! Sanjayadine.
Thanks for your wishes.
Wish you all the best too in relocation to usa.
You don't have to inform us embassy,that you are going to new york or else any other state.
If you had given an address of another state, as your address in usa at the time of the visa interview. Then what you have do is when you arrive in new york, you have to give an address in new york to the immigration office of the airport.You have to inform the immigration officer to change the address. This is important, as your green card will be mailed to this address.

Good luck to you and your family....
 
Dear, Friends
I received my green card on 02/11/2011 through priority mail.
I am wishing all forumites/friends all the best and good luck in USA.
God is great. Praise the lord and keep faith in god always.
Thank you lord......
