hi bro...thanks for giving the unabridged version of events....that was quite to the point as the day unfolded.. I learnt as much as u learnt from me..what's that about knowing neighbours in the US?hahaha..that's my extrovert nature..man,I hate them injections..Maori to hear that u had a reaction...am not prepped more than anyone else here..just praying that God looks upon us all to go through the process as a team..4turya,godia,Vlad and all the guys,family on AP I salute you for being the soldiers on the from line..as Nairobba said..think all guys on forum have a chance...few guys on DV there..maybe they were on other dates..we don't know..but great to meet a forum guy and we struck it off with Nairobba like old mates..cheers bro..let's all put our faith in God..Amen
Sorry for not updating y'all on the progress of my medical exercise, but as Olelenku pointed out, it was a successful process. It was also awesome having Olelenku there, so glad to meet at least one person from the forum. We got to talking as a pastime and funny thing is, we are in the same industry job wise!!! I learnt a lot from him to be honest, I'm not sure the reverse is true.LOL.this guy is fully prepared bana if anything happens and he lands in the US like now now, he'll be so comfortable am sure he can call his neighbors by their names. We kept on missing our appointments every time tho' coz we both love to eat we kept on going out to look for food only to come back and find people queued in behind us had been called in before us. I think I should also point out to forumites how there were about a handful of DV applicants there, we tried adding them up they didn't get to 5!! I'm saying this to give some form of reassurance to the guys with CNs in the 80k, 90k, 100k range that as long as they keep on keeping on, they shouldn't worry coz they sure will get their fair share of the spoils when their time comes. And it may come in way sooner than you think/expect. Patience can't be over emphasized in this process.
Ooh and those vaccines tho', walalala those things are LEGIT!!! They kick in PROMPTLY!!PAP!! I'm not sure about other people, but myself I have serious side effects from those things, maybe its just me. Sorry Olelenku for throwing you under the bus like this but haha this guy is scared of injections,WHAT!! He had to psych himself up to go in and after he was done getting them, he was so excited guy was like Usain Bolt running across the tape numero uno!!he ran out the clinic pumping his fists in the air shouting YES YES while at the same time scratching his itchy shoulders, guy even forgot to take his Vaccination cert. It was so funny.
The doctors and nurses there are so friendly, they are multilingual, warm and all the positive adjectives you can find to describe. It cost me Kshs 19448 for everything, and the same for Olelenku. Yellow fever shots were not administered there, I guess we are gonna have to go get it some place else. Olelenku mentioned to me something about the US not being strict on yellow fever shots, but you have to realize you are from Africa, personally I won't take my chances on being quarantined for 10days at my P.O.E. I'll go get it and get a proper certificate for that.
The only downside I can point out is after all the working out I have been doing this whole past 2 MONTHS, reading all about the beautiful SHE doctors with beautiful eyes cute smiles and nice nails...my physical check was done by a MAN!! The only MAN DOCTOR!!I mean, what ARE THE ODDS???? He found my one pack and hairy legs soo unappealing I didn't even fully undress. Guy told me congrats u r ok while throwing me my cd towards the exit door and he facing the other direction.MEH!
Nice reading your expirience ,you must have made ole lenku laugh all day!!so did you pick your payment coupon before 3rd or did you pick after the first day of your medicals?Sorry for not updating y'all on the progress of my medical exercise, but as Olelenku pointed out, it was a successful process.

Our interview Experience
Good morning good people?
The day is 5th Dec 2013, time 6am at US embassy consular section gate. After a few minutes the gate is opened, we line up for security screening......pass 1,...gate two screening Pass.
We are issued with numbers and told to wait...
Shortly our number is called to window number 4 for verification by a black lady. She approves and asks us to proceed for payment. Paid
Back to waiting bay.
Shortly my wife's name is called, being the principal applicant, to window number six. She is asked to call us(my daughter and I)...pap!
CO:I want the two of you raise your right hand side and swear.
ME/wife: swear
Cto me): Are you so and so
Me: Yes
Co: (to my wife): What have you done since you completed High School?
Wife: blaa blaaa wa waaah
Co: (to wife)Where are you going to stay in the US?
Wife: Georgia
CO: what is the rship with the host?
Wife: My brother.
CO: YOU BETTER CALL AND TELL HIM YOU ARE COMMING, CONGRATULATIONS!
Me and wife: THANK YOU!!!
Then she educates us on DHL registration, and USCIS fees. Gives us forms containing instructions.
My overall experience: The visa is yours, only waiting for you to pick it once you have all correct documentations.
But always remember this godly saying when you are inside there: "BE STILL, AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD!"

hi partitas...we were just clowning around me and olelenku. am sure even the counselor guy can remember us coz we kept on shooting questions at him while the other applicants were just sitting still and staring. hehe it was a good experience tho'.
Payments: Personally I went there having not made any payments. I had to be advised by the doctor on what vaccinations to pay for; thus I made my payments after the first day and presented my receipt first thing on the second day. BUT: I saw people who had made payments prior to their scheduled appointments date; and after the whole procedure, were guided on how to reclaim the rest of the money in case of an overcharge. Hope I've answered your question dully..
