MY EXPERIENCE THIS FAR
Just like our wonderful Makiki, I wish to sincerely thank God for what He has done for me and my family. God is good and I believe am a living testimony to those who can remember my very first question I asked when I bounced into this forum. It was about the KCSE grades and sincerely it was heartbreaking. One guy was point blank and advised that I better save the money (We are a family of four-2 adults and 2 kids) or be a soldier and fight on-if I survive I live and if I die, I die in the battle field. I decided to take the latter. Nobody could really encourage me-as my grades were nowhere near the C plain (I don want to embarrass myself here)

We got at the embassy at around 5.30am and we had to bear with the cold for sometime especially for the kids. We did the security checks and were given a number to wait and a paper that has all the information I really dreaded about KCSE grades. (Makiki has posted it for us).

We waited for a few minutes after handing in our appointment letter and we were given a number which was later called to counter no.5. I was asked to hand in all my original documents. The lady checked on my KCSE cert and asked if I know I did not qualify for a DV visa since the minimum grade is C. I explained I have seen the sheet I was given at the reception but I have some other qualifications. She asked what level and for how long did I train. I said it’s a diploma in xxxxxxx for 3 yrs. For my hubby, she only took his police report, passport, birth certificate and 2 photos. For the kids, only photos, passports and birth certificates. We were later called to counter no.1 for our finger prints, paid the interview fee and asked to go and sit outside and wait for our number to be called. At least by then there was sun for some warmth.

We were called to window 12 but the comp there jammed and moved to window 5 but the same CO.

Co: Good morning
Us: Good morning
Co: Do you swear that everything you are going to say is true? If so raise up your hands
Us: We raised our hands
Co: Then sign the forms and the husband may sign for the kids
Us: we did
Co: Thank you
Co: I want to confirm your finger prints
Us: we put our right thumps on the machine
Co: (turning to me) After high school did you go for further studies
Me: Yes
Co: What did you study?
Me: Diploma in xxxxxxx
Co: I can see the transcripts are here. How long did it take?
Me: 3 years
Co: This is a complex course for you to be admitted to with this grade. Did you do any bridging course?
Me: yes
Co: Where and for how long?
Me: in xxxxx for 2 years
Co: any evidence of that?
Me: yes (I handed the two yr course certificate and a copy to her)
Co: Since you graduated, what have you been doing?
Me: Been working
Co: Where?
Me: I responded
Co: for how long?
Me: xx yrs
Co: As what or what are your duties?
Me: I explained
Co: Do you have anything to show for that?
Me: Yea, I gave a letter I took the other day from ma employer after Makiki posted her experience
(Now turning to ma hubby)
Co: is this your wife?
Hubby: Yes
Co: When did you get married?
Hubby: xxxxxxx (said the year)
Co: Date?
Hubby: gave the date and month
Co: Am approving your visas, you will pick them after one week at the address you indicated. Thats all
Us: Thanx

That was my experience and I can confess that it was like going through a flame hoping you don get burnt and amazingly you see yourself on the other side. All glory to God our father who brings all these things to pass.

Blessed beyond measure :)

Never give up

When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.:)

I think since you offered the above training free of charge, charge them now maybe they will put in their signature:p
 
If you are in Nairobi walk to the IOM and get acquainted to the area,talk to the person booking you 4 the medical you can chat and contemplate on when it is appropriate to book for medical . That's what I did,physical appearance,just my suggestion.:rolleyes:

Yep they ask for all that,I went there physically gave me a form,plus details of the procedure amount to be paid and appointment date date:)
 
Dear forumites, I forgot to tell you that I am based in Mombasa. Let me know if there is anyone from Mombasa who has undergone the medical process. I need to know whether I must book an appointment or I can just walk in.

Thank you all.
