maikeal: @justwise, pls permit me to ask you just a quick question... Pls What measures have you guys taken or are currently taking to revive our page??.. Cos i dont understand this anymore.. I heard the site ''crashed'' but dv2013 thread pages which has way longer posts and some other thread pages are still intact..and our other thread created by obatide,(preparation and settling down in the U.S) thread has totally vanished into thin air or what they call 'OBLIVION'.LOL..pls what really happened to our page and can't it be UNDONE??.. Because i wanted to quote an old post but it was no where to be found ... Your answer will really make me undestand things cos i know you are the only qualified person i can ask that will give me the appropriate answers to my thoughts...(and by the way, u are our noble moderator)so that leaves me with no other options... Thank you in anticipation..

CO: Good Day
ME: Good Day
CO: Is the document u sent is true?
ME: …………….
CO: Do u have a university Degree?
ME:………..
CO: How many years degree is it?
ME:…………..
CO: Where do u plan to go to US?
ME:………………
CO: Who is there?
ME:……………….
CO: How many children do you have?
ME:……………
CO: Do u plan to get married before going to US?
ME:……………….
CO: You visa has been approved come and collect at ….
ME: Thank u.
The interview lasted just 1min and I was said to collect the visa at following date. I could not believe I was asked just few question and a short time while for other it took about 5 min or more.
Learned a lot from this forum from the experience shared by all which has made my application successful.

maikeal: Greeting to you all... I'm happy to hear from you guys and to see that the good work of the thread has not stopped.. Just to add a few info that you guys may need..

1. Pls if you travelling, go to market and get a good,thick jacket that u'll use for your trip especially if you have long stop-overs, and if you are not used to extreme cold like me.. Cos i was almost frozen at morroco and moreover the plane is always cold so if u like urself, better carry one sweet jacket..(i swear,,you will thank me later)

2. It doesnt really matter the bank u are using to pay for ur greencard.. I used Enterprise Bank and it was awesome.. So any bank is good as long as: A. Its mastercard and B. It has been activated for internet banking...

3. When paying ur Greencard fee,the 3-digit number at the back of ur ATM card is ur pin.. Dont even think about using ur normal 4-digits ATM withdrawal pin cos it wont work..

4. At POE i wasnt asked to switch my phone on, my bag wasnt searched at all and i wasnt asked any questions at all... I guess i GOT REALLY LUCKY because i saw the way a lot of people were scruntinized and searched thoroughly,how their foods and valuables were destroyed, how they asked them to switch on their phones and how so many phones and gadjets were destroyed too because they weren't able to turn it on, probably because their batteries died on the way to U.S, so save ur battery, 1 bar wont hurt a fly!

5. According to the newyork 103.5 ktu fm's news i heard that countries that posses the EBOLA disease WILL be barred from entering the U.S until the disease is cured permanently, as a measure to prevent the disease from spreading... The law has NOT yet been pass down or decided yet.. So ur prayers will go a long way for those who aren't yet in the U.S...


I thought it would be nice to say 'hi' after a while now, and i have to confess that i miss you all and that every nerve in my body cant wait to see all of You in the U.S soon ... Adeboy,Armba,Chijen, kaydaddy,lakesideforchrist,jehovahfavour,phazika and all the founding members (i cant remember all your names) HOPE you all have not forgotten me sha?? .. For your sake u berra dont forget me because i still have my KOBOKO.

felixfelix: Amen and so shall God put smiles on ur face 4 d great favour u wd meet b4 d co. I am only counting in days now 4 my testimony bro. U're blssd.

VO response to the bolded part:

I have not heard that this is being considered -- and believe me, we are monitoring the situation carefully, so if it were being considered, I would have heard it.

Right now the important thing for everyone to do is just to stay calm and stay safe! Wash your hands, seek medical help if you feel ill, don't eat undercooked food and avoid contact with persons who are visibly ill. These are good ideas in general, not just for Ebola! Remember, your chances of catching Ebola are actually very very small, especially if you follow these sensible guidelines.

I've heard credible reports of people drinking salt water "to protect themselves" -- please let people know not to do that. Drinking large quantities of salt water can make you very ill or even kill you.

As always, you have my word that if our travel policies change, I will let you all know about it right away.

END


So, lets everybody keep praying as Maikael suggested. Our effort will not be in vain IJN

Took the token paid my$330 and then had my finger print taken, submitted my document. Then waited for the call of the interview. Was called half hour after the submission of document for the interview. The interview was at not at the window where other had the interview but at a special window inside a room. Got scared why this. The CO was a white lady. Went in then the interview began.

Adeboy007:

Good day brother.... Ddream77 is actually not very happy right now with the situation of his visa status.. he has been asking questions on VO's thread about when the Administration processing of his Visa will be over and grant him visa approved.

But the responds he receives from LagosIV@state.gov giving him a doubtful mind if they will sort his case and complete Administration Processing and grant his visa approved before the end of 30th September the fiscal year.

Lets hope everything will workout for him before the aforementioned date

Dekonjay:

@ Lakeside4christ, I'm so sorry your visa was not approved. It's not easy after waiting for so long to accept that it all didn't go as expected. God gives and he takes away. Every disappointment surely has a bigger and better blessing ahead. I pray that blessings are yours IJN. HAVE A BLESSED SUNDAY.

StSteven:
AMEN... May God answer his prayers asap... May the good God that the entire Americans trust in help us all.

diskindgod: Congratulations. My family key into your testimony.
