Our Interview was at 1 and we arrived at the Embassy early at 12.15 or so. My wife and my two kids along with me

After security checks we got the first numbers and were called in at 1.

At the first counter a local requested all our papers one by one original and copy. Sorted them all into individual files asked us if we had an affidavit of support to which I said no I will go based on own assets. She asked us go and pay the fees 330 x 4 and then to wait.

A few minutes later we were called for finger printing and asked to sit again.

At around 1.50 we were called to the window for the interview. It was a very pleasant lady there at the counter.

The first thing she did was give back my original documents which I guess she would have already have reviewed in the 40 minutes or so.

The Interview as best as I can remember.
CO : I will start the interview now.
Me : Sure great.
CO : These are your kids?
Me : Yes
CO : How old are they?
Me : 9 and 14
CO : Ok they may stand aside now.
CO : This your wife?
Me : yes
CO : please raise your hands and Swear that you will tell the truth and that your papers are correct to the best of your knowledge
WE : we swore and signed the papers. I had to sign for the kids.
CO : So who won the DV?
ME : ME
CO : Where did you apply from?
ME : here
CO : Great, Have you been married before? (Both to my wife and me)
We : NO
CO : Have you registered all your kids? Do you have any kids other then these two?
WE : No
CO : When did you marry?
CO : Where did you get married?
CO : Which university did you do your Bachelors from? What was the major?
CO : Which university did you do your Masters from? What was the major?
CO : All your professional qualifications are from the USA did you live there before?
ME : No I did visit for the exams only
CO : What Visa were you on?
ME : B1/B2
CO : Is it Valid
ME : Yes for me and my wife the kids had expired.
CO : Ok Great I think you have all that’s required. I am going to approve your visas right away. They will be valid for 6 months
ME : Thank you
CO : Congratulations, can I have your valid B1 visas I need to cancel them. You may not hold 2 types of visas at the same time.
WE : gave them and stamped cancelled
CO : Take this paper and give it at the DHL counter outside. They will deliver your visas to you.
WE : Thanks once again.
CO : you are welcome, Bye.

We proceeded to the DHL counter gave the papers and were informed that we could expect the package in a week to 10 days.
Along with the passports will be a I think they said yellow sealed envelope that we should not open or else it would delay us at the port of entry.
We then left the embassy in glorious praises to the great Lord our God to whom all this come. Praise be to his name!

Thanks to alll the members for the great contibutions that had me well prepared at the interview.

Anyone able to check yet?

I entered all my info and got "The system is unable to process your request. Please try again later. Connection request timed out"
I tried twice...
 
it's allright.. Applying since 2001... I'm in the US on H1-B visa. My 3rd year now.

I used Google Chrome.

But I don't trust DoS. I'll be checking it again later on.
 
Checked using Firefox - Success

Interesting that the website recommends IE but I've not been able to go anywhere with IE. At least Safari has taken me to where I can enter information....

Here are my results via firefox:
1. Sister - NOT SELECTED (am very sad about this)
2. MOM - NOT SELECTED (sad, but not so sad...can file for her later)
3. SPOUSE - NOT SELECTED (I still entered for us in case of another computer glitch with DV2012...once bitten twice shy)
4. MYSELF - NOT SELECTED

There is no date by which you must submit your documents to KCC. If you send them by September 2012 you will be in line for an interview as soon as your number is current (approximately Jan 2013). If you send your documents later (say, February 2013), you will have your interview soon after that as your number will be current by then.

Visas are only issued from 1 October each year. How soon you get an interview after that depends on your case number and whether KCC has received, and processed your application by the time it becomes current.

A friend just pick up his notice now. His number is low I guess 167X from Nigeria. He could be interviewed October 2012.

We should get favorable appeal court ruling May 11-19. Whether 22,000 people or 2% of it, let all not go to waste.
