Those going for interviews in Nairobi

Hi 2012 Kenyan Selectees,

is it possible for those that have attended the interview in Nairobi to post their interview experience on this thread?

it would be good to know what is happening and whether the proof of Finances / affidavit of support or sponsor letter is required in Nairobi.

I know the 2011 selectees said these were not asked for.

Second batch of winners for Africa in DV-2012

The maximum possible rank number scheduled in Cairo for May is AF42488 ( http://egypt.usembassy.gov/consular/iv8.html ) while cutoff for May is 50,000 for Africa. It is definitely much lower than cutoff.
The number of interview scheduled in Cairo also decreased in May (22 interviwes) versus April (64 interviews)
I suspect that the visa numbers exhausted for Africa. I think there is going to be a second batch of African winners in DV-2012. I suspect the maxumum possible number ever shown to winners is not more than AF43000. The problem is I see some people on the forum from Africa for DV-2012 rank number higher than 43000, even higher that 51000. I saw someone with rank number around AF75000. That contradicts my suspicion. Or it is just an exagerration and the real numbers are lower.

I want you guys with rank number higher than 43,000 to double check you are in fact higher and I want you to tell me if your interview has already been scheduled.

Medical

I did my medical at IOM (Ngong 4th Avenue). It cost me 19,500. The fact that I'd had chicken pox before saved me around 5k.

Hi Kenweed,
I would like to know if I have to book an appointment for my medical exam or is it a walk-in and if I have to book an appointment can i book today and be examined tomorrow? Thanks.

Hi Moku, you're meant to book sometime before your intervew date. They will however schedule your appointment 1 week to your interview. So just go ahead and book. The earlier the better. All the best.

Hi YesuAfuga1, with regards to funds I wasn't asked about that the CO was keen though on my host and how we know each other.
On documents verification its basically your passport, birth certificate, police certificate of good conduct and your high school certificate.
Congrats on being selected trust in God through the journey and all will be well.

I went in as married and at the verification desk the lady told me to handover only copies of my originals excerpt for the Passports,medicals and police papers. At the end of it all she asked me if i had a sponsor in US to which i replied yes and she asked if i had any form from him and luckily i had the I-134 form but i was ready to hand-in my statements also.
Be confident and trust in God the visa is yours.
 
Hi

Thank you Kenweed and Dubai

your assistance has been very helpful.

my documents are sealed(with a thin transparent kind of seal).for protection purposes. would that affect their verification? i could removed the seals but they protect dox well.

Motu-- ma interview is like 2 days b4 yours..

All ma trust is in God Almighty!

again..thanks and GBU!
 
Hi Kenweed,Dubai,et al..

kindly let me know how long it would take one to get their passport from DHL after the interview..i need this info coz current am workin in Ug and will need to travel back.

As for me i did my interview in Abu dhabi not in Nairobi, we left our passports there and picked them up after 1day. For the medicals i did my examinations first day and picked them up after 3days in a sealed envelope which was opened at the embassy only. I have read in some instances where the medicals are sent direct to the embassy. Maybe kenweed can shed more light regard Nairobi embassy.

YesuAfuga1, don't worry about your medical report IOM will deliver that to the consulate, on DHL delivery I picked mine after 3 days. I hope you've registered your details on this site http://usvisa-info.com/en-KE/selfservice/us_immigrant_visas
