adzovia: to answer everyone. i went to kotoka international airport to board the delta flight to Philadelphia. i had excess luggage cause my family in the states wanted a lot of fish and african wear. upon reaching the airport the airline said my bags was too heavy. the lady advised me to take one extra bag and put my things inside. after doing that i ended up paying for 2 extra bags which cause me $400. i believed that raised a red flag with them since i did not complain about the money so there was a white lady there who asked the security guys to check my bags. all my bags were opened the fish i parceled nicely so they wont smell were also opened and wrapped back. after all this i was asked to check in my bags and go through immigration. after i was done and i moved upstairs to board the flight, i was asked again to do drug test which i did by urinating in a cup for them. after that i was asked to board. i was annoyed and very disappointed cause i have never gone through such a search throughout my previous travels.
anyway upon reaching JFK in New York which was my point of entry i went through customs and the brown envelope was taken from me. i must state that i met a guy in the room whose medicals had expired and he was threatened with deportation. please leave as soon as you get your visa. so my passport was stamped and my dv number was written on it.
i took my connecting flight to Philadelphia and my folks picked me up to NEW JERSEY. because of all the troubles at the Ghanaian airport i was too tired so after unpacking and taking my bath i went straight to bed. anyway the weather is soo cold remember to bring warm clothings.

remkay2012: Please forumite, I asked a question sometimes ago and I will still repeat the question as quoted below:
"I said if a visa is granted to a couple and later the wife as a principal applicant delivered a baby after the issuing of the visa, but yet to travel to U.S before delivering. What will be the step to be taken to ensure that the newly born baby will be beneficiary of the dv visa or is the baby going to wait for another 5year before filing for him?" What and what steps to be taken.

1. Inform KCC and Copy Lagos if you are a Nigerian
2. You may need to fill form DSP 230 for the baby and the passport photo
3. Prepare the babies interpassport
4. Take the baby for medi but if KCC say all these are not required, then the baby will be registered at POE in the US. Hope this helps?
