Looks like I will be in for June...congrats to those within 43400.
I want to thank God for he has done so much for me and my family during this time. For sure God is faithful and am a living testimony for those who know my story.
OK, We got at the embassy at 6am did the security check and were given a number to wait and a paper that has all the information i had put early in October about KCSE but i will post it again for everyone to see it again. We waited for 4 hours without hearing our number called out, so we told the KK man who then told us to get in and we started being sorted out. Atleast it was not cold inside. My hubby gave all his original documents, with me they took my police report, passport and birth certificate my dota they took her passport and birth certificate.
We were called to window 10
Us: Goodmorning

Us: Thank you
That was all, we left feeling pretty. By the we were interviewed all of us at the same time, she didnt say that i sit she interviews my hubby no no.
hahahahahaha dem days. I never thought my time will be here lol! By the way the injections are painful but not really ni kidogo. Was surprised my dota never complained of any pain at all. Alafu blood its kidogo, urine and also poop kidogo. I miss those days when we were so anxious i could wake up and the first thing was visiting ni forum.com anyway all will be well by the grace of God.
Was surprised at the Embassy i saw like 4 people carrying the XRay envelopes then asked my hubby did we hear the doctor well, how come people are carrying their XRays here? Then i made my way to one of them asked him "are you here for the DV Lottery interview?" he said "No, am here for the grinicadi interview." the accent wasnt Kenyan and he seemed so ignorant so a i left him and found my way to aka lady of my size then she told me she is from Burundi and she did her medical in Nairobi stayed for the interview that is why she is carrying her envelope, even a young man from Ethiopia had his envelope with him. Some jamaa a young one with jist ana dready kiasi got a red card i felt for him coz all that time its the CO who was speaking lakini him alikua mute doo doo!!
hmmm...so what do u do nowadays since u've "crossed over".I miss those days when we were so anxious i could wake up and the first thing was visiting ni forum.com
r u sure he wasn't Kenya?!!!Then i made my way to one of them asked him "are you here for the DV Lottery interview?" he said "No, am here for the grinicadi interview." the accent wasnt Kenyan and he seemed so ignorant so a i left him
why was he red carded?Some jamaa a young one with jist ana dready kiasi got a red card i felt for him coz all that time its the CO who was speaking lakini him alikua mute doo doo
Congs Mashpol.... our visa on the way too... obeez where are you?
Obeez disappears too these days, everyone does it. Seems you and i are stuck here for some time. We better not get lost on each other when that time comes.
LOL..talk about the pot calling the kettle black.Obeez disappears too these days, everyone does it.
U got that right,we r stuck in this ship to the end...a toast to that.Seems you and i are stuck here for some time

My dear, relax we are all here for each other. Hatutaachana, i pray to God that even after the visa we shall stick here till september 2013 i.e. till everyone gets a visa. Guess Obeezyb has been held up somewea but am sure she means well . Guess what? You are not alone!

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
Obeezy kwani r u contesting 4 presidntl seat all the best ukimaliza jua tumekumis
GOOOOD to SEEEE UUUUUUUUUUUUU. At least it will not be manual or outdated.Am sure no body will appose you. Cant wait for that time i will vote you as the next Obama III've just been engrossed with work/elections(ati my name wasnt in the register yet I confirmed via their website..I did manage ti vote @ around 2130hrs...thank GOD)...about the presidency,I'll be contesting it in the US
Cheers.
I dont think whether i will ever come back to this country again, i just wont. Everything is a mess everywhere you go kitu kidogo when you want something done fast and done for you they want you to give them money to get the services. My waterbill was keyed in wrongly that they even saw it as their mistake but correcting that damn figure i have spent more than a thousand to get a signature that it was a wrong entry and ironically the figure has not been removed just the signatures put down on the bills. We talk of one nation one country where we will do things transparently but everything is WRONG. I love my country but the rate at which hongo is being demanded is alarming. When i remember how much i have spent to get papers like correction of my dota's birth certificate, passports, police certificate i thank God there was No bribery at the Doctors office, Embassy and now where am heading to. What irritates me the most is the attitude of those officers in the government offices.
