DV 2015 Winners Meet Here

Thanks for your answers.

Do we have to give our employment history for the last 10 years or do we have to give the complete employment history on DS-260 ? I think I did not see anything on this form that one has to limit themselves to the last 10 years, what is the actual case ?
 
Sorry also i have another question that is bugging me and it's the reason why i didnt fill the form yet ,, i am a medical doctor but not yet certified in the states .. Im willing to work there as a doctor after i pass all the required exams .. But for now i didnt know what to answer to these two questions in the form ..

Are you a graduate of a foreign medical school seeking to perform medical services in the united states but have not yet passed the national board of medical examiners examination or it's equivalent ?
Yes or no

Are you a health care worker seeking to perform such work in the united states but have not yet received certification from commission on graduates of foreign nursing schools or from an equivalent approved independent credentialing organization ??
Yes or no


These two questions are really worrying me ,, i have an idea to write in the form that occupation i will work in in states be medical translator as it does not require certification .. So i can answer no to these two questions and it wont affect me in the interview ,, what u think guys ??
Ur help would be really appreciated

Your answer is yes for both questions.

i am not sure about that, however, for me since i made a mistake, identifying the occupation in the drop box, selecting "Other" while i was supposed to select "Business", so for me i will prepare the complete employment history and references that i have.
 
hi rolex and britsimon, we can agree on one thing just getting prepared for everything. i said there are many people who are not asked affidavit of support but not all. actually it is not such a big deal to get affidavit of support your relative or friend can do it with an hour. so to be 100% perfect and because you have a baby girl i personally advise rolex123 to bring affidavit of support to interview. Cheers!
thanks all, and start to search as of this moment ! THANKS ALL!

should i prepare the document (affidavit of support) for the interview just in case? or should i wait for them to tell me to bring it ?
 
HEY GUY DOES ANY ONE KNOW ABOUT THE MEANING OF :
  1. Beneficiary
2 Petitioner​
3 . Affidavit support
4. Adjustment of status
5. Sponsor
 
BRITSIMON, IF WE MANGED TO GET THE AFFIDAVIT SUPPORT IS THERE ANY DEAD LINE ? I MEAN IF U GOT NOW TILL NEXT MARCH OR FEBRUARRY?
THANKS


If you decide to get one (remember that is not the ONLY way you can show your ability to support yourself), then there is no deadline although it would make sense to have it ready at your interview. If they ask for it, and you cannot provide it they would either refuse you or put you on AP pending the proof of finances.

These are context sensitive - i.e. depends about what form you are taking the terms from.

1. Someone who is to benefit - for example the selectee if it is the I134
2. The person making the petition.
3. A promise to provide support (legally binding for the I864, not binding for the I134)
4. Changing from a one type of visa to another whilst in the USA (so H1 to LPR for example)
5. In family based immigration that would be the family member who is applying for you - DV cases do not have a sponsor.
 
I know the question has certainly already be asked, but I have a doubt, so I dare to ask it once more.
Is it possible to travel to the USA with the simple ESTA and passport (that is, in tourist) AFTER to have send the DS-260 but BEFORE to have the interview to the US Embassy or is it necessary to precise to the authorities that we are in a DV process? This is not all clear for me. So pardon me my stubbornness with all my questions… o_O

Yes - no problem.
 
1. Interviews are scheduled based on when CN become current.

2. IF there are health concerns likely to prevent the applicant from getting a visa, the Panel Doctor will inform the applicant at the time of the interview, the doctor will also recommend an appropriate course of treatment. They will not go ahead and simply issue a medical report if the required course of treatment is not completed.

3. Regardless of the POE indicated at the time of your interview, you can enter from any other point whenever you decide to make the move. Normally, I assume you wouldn't open a letter that is not addressed to you, or that is addressed to your spouse all under the guise of openess, democracy and freedom, right? Well, same with the immigration package that is addressed to the US Immigration Officer. They insist on it not being open to guard against people tampering with the information contained in the packet, it could also be to ensure nothing goes missing from the packet. There's no telling what fraudulent practices some people could resort to if they're alllowed to open the packet.

You can read more about the sealed packet from 9FAM 42.73 (pg. 8) below

That was a great answer to a (slightly paranoid) question.

The doc you linked to was also quite interesting. I'm pleased to see how focused they are on preventing FGM.
 
Your answer is yes for both questions.

Thank you britsimon for answering ..regarding the name would u please explain to me whats wrong with it ? Coz i didnt get your point .

I answered yes to the first question and explained as following : i will not perform any medical services unless after i pass all the required examinations by the national board of medical examiners and receive the required certifications to perform such services .

For the second question i answred no coz i thought it was directed to nurses .. Am i mistaken . I already submitted the form
 
Since no one answered I'll take a shot.

You're not late. Your number is so good you're going to be interviewed in October so you've got another few weeks.

With regards City/Locality - I'd put what's on your passport because that's what they'll type in the computer.

Thanks for the reply .. I submitted the form yesterday and I hope they schedule the interview on october so this tension could be over .. It's a very stressing process this DV thing ..
Regarding the place of birth i wrote the name of the city as it indicates City in ds-260 form .. I hope in interview if they see that both names of city and locality is written in birth certificate and all my other papers they wouldnt have a problem .

I don't think the second answer will cause you any issue.

Regarding the name. "Lolita" was a book about an inappropriate relationship between a middle aged man and a young girl. The book was later made in to a couple of films and the name is now shorthand for a young sexually active girl. Adding "4u" on that name seems suggestive to say the least.
