No, as long as the 2016 entry is correctly filled in you will be fine.
 
I wish all best on medicals and to face the CO soon, I wonder it seems we ar a few left for sep interv in the forum!
 
@ Jonge,that gap is too close.It is always advisable to have your medicals done atleast 3-4 weeks to your interview .In this case,if the lab test or x-ray shows something abnormal,you will have suffcient time to rectify it.Rem yo can re-schedule your medical dates,and i highly advice you to.you have the whole month of Aug,why wud you book your medicals for sept,4 days to your intervie@ Jonge,that gap is too close.It is always advisable to have your medicals done atleast 3-4 weeks to your interview .In this case,if the lab test or x-ray shows something abnormal,you will have suffcient time to rectify it.Rem yo can re-schedule your medical dates,and i highly advice you to.you have the whole month of Aug,why wud you book your medicals for sept,4 days to your interview?

An omission on a previous year (where you did not interview) will not cause an issue for a future DV entry/win.
 
yap for jonge it's too bt for now it makes no difference to do it in 3or4 weeks in August than sep 4 coz it wont help anything any xray abnormalities definitely yu under for Sputum test for 60days n by then the program wil be over so for me my advice jonge don't change our z wth yu.
 
I arrived safely in Houston. I used BA all through. No problems going through JKIA, but have the sealed envelope close. My arriving flight and connecting flight were all at Heathrow's Terminal 5 so i didn't have to change terminals. 4 hours flew by and the next flight was on time. I arrived in Houston at 1430hrs. Went through immigration. Took fingerprints and a photo then was told to wait to be escorted to the processing office. Guys, it took 4 hours. Luckily i had already arrived at my final destination. Guess they are lots of south americans coming through Houston airport with student, internship, renewing greencards..and only 2 officers processing at the station i was taken to. And no phones allowed in that CBP (Customs & Border Protection). They confiscated a Mexicans' phone for using it in that interview room. They took fingerprints at some point and had to wait and wait and wait..It was so looong. Word of advise. If you have a connecting flight from POE, please have at least 4 hours between those flights. It might be a while and they don't care about you missing your connecting flight. So many peeps missed their flights as we waited...Finally i left at 1830pm but not before another delay at customs control. My body is recovering from jet lag before i take the next steps..

Sounds gruelling - but you're there!

Just about connecting flights - allow AT LEAST 4 hours - 5 or 6 is better. Some airports are large and it can be a hassle to change - and in some airports you have to go back through security to change terminals.

Thanks Prince John I think I need about 8 weeks for the scenario you have stated. The sputum culture takes about 8 weeks so I needed to have already done the medicals...
 
Jonge dwing medicals 3or4 weeks to interv other than sep 4 for now does not change anything coz of the little timeframe left, so if yu wsh yu can change for an earlier date in August but it wont help anything to do with Sputum test , rmember we only hve 60days from Aug 1to sep 30 I wud hate to think of this process it's the worst horror anyone wud think of coz i am victim I pray it won't happen to yu so do yua medicals comfortably n may God be wth yu.
 
Gurix,
Damn that was something else in there u had. So gruelling. Gosh i could use the loo 4EVER. However guys be careful about cheap deals. Please be so careful. Its really "CHEAP". I spoke to KIAUG n she told me they got a deal from IOM n it was heavenly though they did not have any hiccups their flight delayed in Ebbs for 2 hours. When they got to Armsterdam - it was hectic...they where late!!!! n they where the only ones remaining. Hadn't it been for the IOM staff to rush them to the plane it would have been something else.....they boarded last after Usainbolting thru the airport.....ITS NOT EASY. When they boarded it was like - We have been waiting for you where have you been? - As if it was their fault!!!!
But unlike Gurix, these had a swift thru the Immigration.
