@aleki oh my KNEC seems to be letting people down, sorry for that dissapointment mate!but since April, now that is alarming, I recall @Guriix also had a delay from them?Am not sure may be he can let us know how he maneuvered this disappointment?
 
If you mean the job you are (or have) performed is at SVP 6 to 7 then it is not just the length of time worked that is an issue. You don't mention what job zone your work is classified as - that is important too. The rules say this:-

"High School Education: A high school education means successful completion of a formal course of elementary and secondary education comparable to completion of a 12-year course in the United States.

Work Experience: If you are qualifying with work experience, you must have two years of experience in the last five years, in an occupation which, by U.S. Department of Labor definitions, requires at least two years of training or experience that is designated as Job Zone 4 or 5, classified in a Specific Vocational Preparation (SVP) rating of 7.0 or higher.

The U.S. Department of Labor provides information on job duties, knowledge and skills, education and training, and other occupational characteristics on their website http://www.onetonline.org/. The O*Net online database groups work experience into five "job zones." While many occupations are listed, only certain specified occupations qualify for the Diversity Visa Program."

You can qualify on education basis alone, or on work experience alone. Work experience route is harder because it is somewhat subjective. However, given the time you have worked (after the apprenticeship) is only 1 year in the last 5 years AND that that job (as you are now saying) is not a SVP of 7.0 or above then I am starting to fear that you will not qualify by work experience.

So - are you qualified by the education route?

hi,

I'm new here and i got a question about this work experience....I got a friend who work as a personal trainer, did some personal training courses and was awarded certification to work as a trainer. when he was applying for dv 2015, he was only 1 year working for professional gym in Dubai. Lucky is one of the people selected with CN 60. do you think he is in a position to be issued visa with work experience?

hey mohaa,unless something went wrong, passport is very easy, you apply and they tell you within 10 working days and you have it, at nyayo house immigration offices, just go and inquire what went wrong.

No. It is job zone 3, SVP 6-7 whereas the requirements are job zone 4-5 and SVP >7.

@ SusieQQQ...thanks for the information, am just disappointed that this very valued visa for this guy will go!

...am sure others are disappointed he didn't check first and used up a selection slot that could have gone to an eligible person...
