Speedy,
How did you get Police certificate? where did you apply? POLDA or MABES?
Thank you,
Anton
hallo ... penonton!
Today I found a big white envelope in my mailbox from Kentucky Consular Center .. I thought it was another hoax (promotional) letter, but it is about I win the DV Lottery 2008. The letter come from Sweden dated on march 22, 2007. CS # 2008AS000057xx
I applied the lottery only once and it was just "iseng-iseng" since I never think about immigrating to the USA ... but I win .. happy? not really because:
1. I dont know what will I do in the USA?
2. It will cost to much, around 750 USD each person to continue the process(I have wife and 1 baby)
3. I have nobody (family/friend/trusted person) in the USA
can you help me to give opinion on why should I continue the process?
Hi Anton,
You have to get the SKKB (surat keterangan Kelakuan Baik) from Mabes Polri.The embassy only want it that way.
I also PM speedys4 to ask about the procedure because,
although I know that we had to submit the one from Mabes, still some other Indonesian, tell me that in order to get the SKKB from Mabes.
first you have to go to Kelurahan and get SKKB from Lurah,
then get SKKB from Polres,then get SKKB from Polda.
AFter that, you submit the SKKB from POlda to Mabes,then Mabes issued you their SKKB based upon the SKKB from Polda.
Talk about complicated procedure huh.
This is caused by the computer system from Polda and Mabes is not online...
But still I heard that some people can get it from Mabes directly.That is what I want to know.Can we by pass all the procedure and just go to mabes?
I understand we might to pay "more" fees
as you know what I mean,
but it save so much time if we can do it directly.
So does anybody in here get it directly from Mabes,or have to go to Kelurahan ,Polres, and Polda first?
Can anybody here help us?
Thank you
Hi Hermawan,
Your situation was same with mine last year, I applied only 1 times and never thought that I would won. When I got the big white envelope,I didn't read the envelope for 3 days, and when I read it I thought it was hoax before I searched internet for more information and found this forum.
I wo DV 2007 and will going to move next week.
1&3You can find a job, tried to search your old contact, maybe one of your friend is there, or friend of friend. At least one Indonesian people that you know.
2. For 3 persons, it will be 745 USD x 3
For sure, there must be a way for you.
Regards,
Vania
Hi, I am also from Indonesian. I received the letter not from KCC but from the agent who helped administering the lottery. This make me confuse since I expect a letter and forms from KCC. Please advise what should I do.

answering my own question....
i just actually read the instruction
note: family members refer only to your spouse and unmarried children who have not reached age 21 before you entered the lottery.
so i think it's a game over for me to depend from my sister's lottery ...
another question:
on the general photo requirements it's said:
> using a felt pen to avoid mutilation of the photographs, lightly print hte name of the subject on the back of photos
what does it mean with the felt pen?
sorry for my english..
