hey don`t panic just look out for visa bulletins and then if your case number is in that range...then you can call KCC,kentucky for elaboration on your interview date.
nairobi is avery good place for the interview once you`re done with the medicals.
the medical part is the hardest huddle as the doctors are always so book earlier always ,,the costs depends but with atleast 20,000/= kenyan shillings for each individual.
just don`t panic ,,goodluck

How much money will the medical examination and interview cost?

The interview costs USD 775 per person

if there is no enough money on my account to prove financial security on reaching america, will an affidavit from a USA citzen be accepted?Yes get your sponsor to complete Form 134 A and send it to you. To determine if your sponsor has adequate resources to sponsor you, you will need to check the federal poverty guidelines for 2008

what health conditions have been given or used do deny people DV visas?

A positive test for HIV.

what specific documents are needed at the embassy?

The documents are detailed in your first notification letter
when do they stop issuing DV visas interview dates?

For DV 2009 no visas can be issued after 30 September 2009.

Hey, my case number is as stated, 2009AF25xxx . i know i will be having my interview in nairobi and am happy that we will be going through the same experience.

Am not from kenya, but i know i will have my medical examination in kenya. i have a few questions i would like you to help me with. is there any website where we can get in touch with doctors from? where is that list for accepted doctors? when do we start having the medical examination? should i wait to have my NL letter then have the examination ? since am from outside kenya, am so worried about the time i will need.

am going to have to travel to kenya, away from my job for some time. Do you have any idear how long the whole process will take me ( medical and interview)

and when do you think my case number will be lined up for the interview, i looked at the bulletin, and i saw all africa it will be 15000 by december (except countries specifically mentioned). i hope that it means that only people below that will appear in december.

once again thanks for the infor, from just your words, i can guese that you ant chickening like me. i need gods grace by my side. Are u in kenya right now?

From information you have posted your case number will be current around May next year(2009).You will get the second notification letter 2-6 weeks before your CN is current for that month.The letter will have
1.the interview date
2.The addresses of the selected doctors and their locations
3.Documents required on the interview date

About medical in kenya the cost will depend on you age and medical history(vaccination)but usually prepare around say USD 250 process takes around 1-2 weeks

You are right, police certificate & good conduct both are the same, no need to ask african or asian for this, as in any country you should go to your Criminal Investigation Department headoffice in your city, and sure you will find one window there serving this issue only, check out what their requirements (passport copy+photos+fingerprints, etc ..) just let them know (if they didn't ask you for what purpose?) to be addressed to the embassy of the United States of America in your country, by the way, the same you have to do in case you spent more than 6 moths in any other country beside your country since you reached the age of 16, so that means you have to claim the same from these countries, as well as your own country one, hope I have helped you in this issue.
