I was with my sons at 6.45 am picked no 84 ticket then proceeded to a counseling meeting one gentleman from uganda and three wariah and lady going to Australia,where you in that group?:(

Sorry Nickelly, was not able to reply to your question immediately been too busy. Yeap, I was in that group, I remember the lady going to Australia had a small daughter with her.
I was the lady who went to look for her consent form and dint come back :))
 
Eventually!!!!
after long fight i picked-up my visa today.
Wow, i love your resilience. Thank God you did not run away from the forum. After 174days from the interview date you got your visa.
Surely God is never late. AM proud of you.
 
Thank you so much,God bless.
For those who have gone through the jabs at IOM,whats their charges per individual and what other documents should one carry apart from the passport?
For those who have gotten their pass(gone through interview n got the visa)how should one dress?

I think the charges at IOM vary with the dollar exchange rate and ur health status.When I applied I was told to carry 27000 to that place.After my two days visit I ended up using 24500 only.I thnk u should carry the larger figure to overcome any shortcomings that may arise in the process.
 
Ooh and about the documents,carry ur passport and a copy of ur selectee notification letter,black and white or coloured any will do.
 
Thank you so much,God bless.

Cera dear,
I am in a position to answer your first question. For IOM carry roughly 25,000/= KShs. (make sure you book the appointment before hand) then carry your passport and letter from website showing your CCN.
Also, you can carry a little more money to buy lunch and grab for you (and any child/company you might have)
On the dress code: we can ask Langeni, Makiki, Jimma boy...etc to assist on that.
Baraka.
 
makiki ma'am,where are you?I thnk u r in a better position to guide Cera on the dresscode at the embassy..I perceive Cera is a lady so ma'am ur advice is needed.

Sorry, and two passport photos, 2x2, white background...showing your neck and hairline. and enough patience and time.
All the best.

Yo right KyleXY, Makiki is in a better positon to answer Cera and the rest of us. However, I would rather overdress (suit, tie, official look ) rather than underdress (tshirt, jeans etc) and look stupid. What do you think?

Langeni lol ??
 
No need of suit, tie,.. official look because you end up undressing and there is no mirror to redress your ties back,just be simple but you can carry a jamper or jacku incase of cold weather
