Congratulations Momo 1980. Its in fact a reason to celebrate after early release from the office today. We certainly could be up for some drinks in the states some day. All the best.
I must admit that was a very long post there. Awesome!


Hey Roselyna,

Are you already through or are you on DV2014?

Where are you applying from and where do you plan to settle in the US?

We can certainly meet and celebrate if the opportunity presents itself :)

Momo, are u allowed to bring your cell phone on the interview ? how pictures you have to bring ?


Hey bro, no phones allowed inside the embassy or any electronic devices. You leave your phone at the security desk and they'd normally give you a number which you hand back on your way out and claim your items.

I am so glad for you Momo, congratulations. I prayed for you in the last 3 days, so this morning I was coming to the forum to see your success story and that is the first thing I saw, so glad. You did well by giving us the detailed interview experience. God be with you. You have been a blessing to many in this forum. Keep coming.


Ghanama, thank you for your kind sentiments and prayers. All those who prayed for my success deserve success as all the people on here have been a blessing to me.

I will continue to stay on as a member as the greatest satisfaction I have is helping others because many helped me unconditionally.

Momo I'm on holiday, but had to log on to check in about your day - and I am glad to read it went as we knew it would! Looking forward to hearing more about your journey. Nothing can stop you now...


Hey Simon, thanks for your encouragement! Lucky you! Where are you holidaying?

Momo seems to have vanished since his post. Maybe he's busy frantically packing :D

Lol Susie, you know the moment I sat down at home, my mother was like "we have to pack" and I said "leave me alone we'll pack this weekend!"

I'm trying to keep it to two suitcases max because I'm coming back in December to check on work and pick up my other stuff along with my guitars (can't do without them!).

I have to say that one of the best things for me on this journey has been this forum.

I couldn't have done it without any of you!


I leave with my mother on Saturday, August 17th at 5pm and reach Dubai at around 11:30pm at night and after a three hour transit I'll board my next flight for Dulles and arrive at 8:30am so I should be out of the airport by 9:30am.

I'll be heading straight to Virginia (Falls Church) to spend two nights with my brother as I haven't seen him for two years and recuperate from the traveling then hop in a car and have a three hour drive to Pennsylvania to see my aunt whom I also haven't seen since 2011.

The schedule for the week that I land is to start moving to get my driver's licence and bank account sorted out, then meet a tax consultant to set up my tax payments on foreign income.

After that it's wedding bells for my brother so we'll be busy with that and once thats out of the way in September, my mother and I are doing a state by state hop to check out where I'd like to settle and first stop is Dallas then Houston as they're tax friendly and cost of living is great (and houses are cheap!).

Vichel, I have no words to describe how grateful I am for your comment. It is truly one of the nicest things someone has said to me in a long time!

I hope to be an asset and contribute to the US by being hardworking and law-abiding, and someday have my children contribute to the US with the abilities they learn.

Whereabouts are you in the US?
