Dv 2013 kenyan selectees report here!!!!

Today's devotion
Friend, the enemy wants us to give up. He wants us to think that our circumstances are hopeless so that we end up with deferred hope BUT that is not true because in Jeremiah 32:27 God says, “Behold, I am God of all flesh, is there anything too hard for me?" All the best who are current.

Nickelly, apart from fomogho who said the two ends of his cert were cut for lamination and that put her under AP, who else do you knw that was put under AP for laminated certs? Were they told to do anything about it? My certs are laminated with the two ends intact. is there any problem? I have two KCSE certs laminated and a degree not laminated. By the way, almost all my friends who care about their certs have laminated them...esp the ones who sat for KCSE more than 4 years ago...it shows you care for your valuable documents. I have never heard KNEC saying anything to do with not laminating the certs!! please forumates, respond to this concern...I need to hear from those who faced the CO with laminated certs. I have followed this thread and it seems only fomogo and maybe her friend had issues with laminated certs. And by the way Fomogho, how long were you put under AP and what were you told to do?

[Good advise, what more can i add if u have said it all.QUOTE=nickelly;2636929]Enoo to be on the safe side just tell the KNEC guys to send a confidential results of your Certificate. It depends which CO will interview you, some get good CO's who are user :)friendly, it will cost you only Khs 2000, we don't want you to TAKE ANY CHANCE. Am fomogho's friend and I don't want you to go through AP she will tell you her experience.[/QUOTE]
 
ObeezyB....Your current now and i hope this puts a smile on your face. Nickelly, i got no words to thank you. Even when everybody seems to be busy, i always get your messages first thing in the morning. Be blessed.

Just to weigh in on the issue;I've always wanted to go to the US but circumstances haven't been on my side until now;I did know about the DV since my primary school days(the I'd just cleared class 8 & one of my fellow candidates & neighbor claimed one of his parents had won but all along I've been seeing him around,never got to question what happened) & remember pushing my mum to apply but she wasn't interested.she eventually did apply in 2001 or 2002 but did not materialize.After it went electronic,I stated doing it on my own but it was on & off till 2009 when i got serious about it.

Honestly,only God knows how bad I need a new start thus I'm really aching to permanently relocate;I mean what could be worse over there that we're yet to see in Kenya & its not like I have grown roots(careerwise) over here thus uprooting myself is just offloading current household possessions & I'm off;no kids,schooling,career issues.

I have a query to put out there,if u were to be offered money not to go,what would be ur price??every1,feel free to chip in.....

@dubai-b;I would tend to disagree about applying for the DV for the sake of it;reason,coz always with the exception of 95,97,03 & 2010 did they surpass their numerical limits.From a perspective,we could say less demand for the visas by selectees or another perspective is processing inefficiencies thus locking out selectees like in 07/08.personally,I do love filling forms & all my info is on my usb stick thus its a walk in the park applying for the DV unlike all the other visas whose requirements are high.Perhaps I underestimated my odds coz winning sure did look very distant.

Over to you....

"My certs are laminated with the two ends intact. is there any problem? I have two KCSE certs laminated and a degree not laminated."
If I send a request to KNEC now and I have interview 17th sep, dont you thinnk the embassy will misplace my documents by then? and by the way what is it that is so bad about laminating certs just as they are without cutting even the parts which have holes?
 
Please dubai-b I need your response concerning laminating certs. Please see my concerns on this page 235
 
God's Promises are Yes and Amen

These few weeks have been quite trying with anxiety building to almost unbearable proportions. Then today, 0450h I get to the Embassy. Chilly like you wouldn't believe. Then wait all the way to 0600h before the security guys arrive at the Consular Section gate. Anyway, to cut a long story short, The ALMIGHTY GOD came through for me and the interview was successful without the CO asking any question besides the "Do you swear that the information contained in these forms is the truth?". Thank You God. Thank you forumates for providing me with invaluable information. Please keep this forum alive.
 
congratuations

Hi,

The best ans about this question came from fomogho.I think makiki had touched on it sometimes back. Ask KNEC to send a copy of your KCSE to the embassy. That way your covered whether you get a good CO or no. Be blessed and relax you will get the Visa.
Those who are yet to go for your interview or the 2014 guys, this forum and the previous one covers atleast 90% of your concerns. Take your time and review them slowly during your free time.
