In our place here calling the embassy & getting help is like a piece of cake but I don't know of your place! One thing I don't understand, they don't pick your phone or reply your email, right? But how did You get your DOS no.? And you said they 'said'!? How did they say what you say they said? Something is not adding up here tyt?

No - I think they gave him the DoS PHONE number.

Hi Guys thanks all for the congrats. My interview experience is a short one.

Got to the embassy by 5.20am. Waited outside where it was super chilly just like everyone before me had said,so i went equipped with two heavy sweater but that still was not enough seeing as am from Msa I was still freezing.
At 6 am people line up women on your left and men on the right, spouses are told to align such that they are in the same position with each other in their respective lines.
Body search then ensued then you lined up for interview date confirmation or something like that. then another body search and bag scan,where you leave all electronics(phones, laptops, earphones, flash disks etc).
Then we proceed inside now where you go get your number and wait outside the freezing waiting area for your number to be called. DV guys go to counter 4 /5 where your present copy and original Police Cert, Birth Cert, KCSE Cert, Passport and Passport Pic and you get back you old pp pics and 1st NL.Here they ask you some questions(have you ever committed a crime, are you married, do you have kids, have you ever been to the US) By the way I heard some Rwandan dude give a good answer when asked if he is married?He laughed and then told the lady to help him find a wife lol.
At this juncture when asked if I wished to change my POE, I did.

You wait for another like 15 to 20 minutes to be called to counter 9/10.

The interview(2 Minutes or less)

(after taking your finger prints)

Have you ever been married?

Do you have kids?

What is the relationship you have with your host?

Congratulations, I have approved your visa....am giving you a paper with details of a site blah blah blah i had already switched off and was just waiting to start walking towards the exit.I confirmed the time with someone outside it was 8am when I was done with the whole thing so 2 hours ain'tso long.

Guess what I have been communicating on a regular with TYT n something is not clear.... but for starters he should check for an update on his 2nd NL ..... isnt that what the DOS Number is all about? How I wish someone knew somebody in Sierraleone.... Embassies differ n there must be clarity in responding to queries. Donno but something is a Miss here

I think we have all had that feeling about his case. We had many posts trying to establish that he had been through a normal procedure and was truly on AP. however it seems he is.

hi tyt

I m in the same situation since my interview in begin of august.

The co gives me the visa and told me to return a week after to get my pasdeport with visa. Unfortunatly i was surprised that they told me that the passeport was not ready. Until now im stil waiting. I don t understand what happens either.

so good luck for all of us. God wil do what is best for us.

@sas2013 were you told to pick your passport from the embassy? I thought embassies nowadays send passports through DHL ... did you register a DHL location where you'd pick your passport from?
 
TYT
My dear brother there is a feeling that u never actually faced the CO. Coz prior to facing the CO they request for all your documents passport, birth certificate n other documents.... then they take your fingerprints n finally you are called to face the CO. There is a widespread feeling that after taking your documents....u left the EMBASSY. Is this the case?
