It is only a suggestion. I'm not stuck on it, though. The fact that a thread is closed those not mean it will disappear completely(the only thing is that people can no longer post comments on it). It will still there for reference purposes.

temmytanny: why close it?

Dear All/Moderator,
I suggest that this thread be closed since DV 2012 has formally come to an end. Let's channel our inputs to the DV 2013 and DV 2014 preparations(which should be closed after Nov, 3).
Thank you.

DV 2012 has officially started. I just did mine . I am still hopeful of being selected this month for DV 2013.
ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE TO HIM THAT BELIEVES.
I wish every one in NAIRALAND community success.

ataime: Hi guys many tnks 4 ur contribution to dis thread.however wld wnt 2 knw if dre s provision 4 accomodation over dre or if migrants wld b solely  their own as per job placement wth accomodation
2ndly could i list ma bf as ma spouse A̶̲̥̅̊₪d̶̲̥̅̊ wht if we do a court marriage early nxt year after d applicatio,cld dt mar our chances.
Thanks

There are no welfare packages for winners of the DV lottery.
I strongly advise against listing your Bf as your spouse because you are not legally married now.
You can both apply as 'singles' now and if/when you get married, you can update your data(i.e. if any of you is selected). However, if/when you get married, be sure to get the appropriate marriage documents and pictures.

moozza67: Please this question should be answered by the winners of dv 2012 who filled their visa lottery form themselves. PLEASE IS IT TRUE THAT IF U USE ANY VERSION OF INTERNET EXPLORER ORDER THAN EXPLORER 6 OR 7, UR REGISTRATION FORM WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED SINCE IT WAS WRITTEN IN THEIR WEB SITE THAT THEIR SYSTEM ONLY SUPPORT INTERNET EXPLORER 6 OR 7? THANKS FOR UR PROMPT RESPONSE.

No. I used Mozilla for the people I applied for and some of them were selected. The most authentic comfirmation is the number you receive when you have successfully submitted your entry.

anochuks08: just heard another gunshot around One Day premises about 30mins ago. But am not too stupid to run towards sounds of gunshots. Rumours are saying that it was an honourable that was gunned down. God help them

I just went past the place now. A blue chevrolet car was in ditch and a young woman was wailing there. A huge crowd gathered around the area. I didnt stop to find out what happened. Also learnt there was another killing around Gariki. God save us

Fellow Nairalanders
I need some info on the kind of questions that are asked during NLNG recruitment (especially for health personnel e.g. nurses, doctors). I would also appreciate it I can get general questions. I am preparing for their aptitude test.
Thanks

adexkem: High school no degree means you have completed secondary school without 5 credits. While high school diploma means you have completed and also have 5 credits. Since you are undergraduate pick HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA. In the form you will fill, there is another question about the school you attended. Include your present school and course. From primary, secondary and present i.e poly/uni. In your interview, prepare very well for question in Olevel and your course of study.

I reasoned the same way too but wanted a 2nd opinion. Thanks for your response. Thanks Temmytanny

Honestly, i cant remember wat i filled. Considering my present situation as an undergraduate, wat shud it be? @Temmytanny, Remember dat d question is abt d highest level of education COMPLETED.

Dear forumites,
I'm in the process of filling my forms. I need some clarification. I am an undergraduate, what do i fill as highest level of education completed? is it 'High school, no degree' or High school diploma'? Thanks in anticipation of ur response

temmytanny: I need advice ooo.

I want to know the validity period of my medical? I did it in 2011 Dec,got my visa in April and i intend to travel in August,i hope its not expired? I check many forums to confirm the validity but some say its 6months while some say its one year. I mailed US embassy and there response was a bit funny: Your medical was valid as at the time your visa was issued.Dont understand what they mean by that.

@temmytanny,
Here's an extract from the US Visa website 'IMPORTANT NOTE: Medical examination results are valid for one year in normal circumstances. But if you have certain medical conditions your examination results could expire in as little as 3 months. In any case you should not have your medical examination until the NVC notifies you of your interview appointment date. You may be denied entry to the United States if your medical examination results expire before your arrival.'.http://www.travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/info/info_3744.html

Ayomola:

IT IS NOT BY POWER OR MIGHT BUT BY MY MERCIES SAYS THE LORD...
FOR BY STRENGTH SHALL NO MAN PREVAIL

@ Ayomola, thanks for ur encouraging testimony. i key into the favour God granted u. Do u suggest that i fill the correct surname in the Ds 122 and 230 forms? remember it is different from what appeared in the notification letter.

Ayomola:

I am a living testimony of this scenario
and do you know what,
I have my Visa right now.
mistakes in your name does not disqualify you.
what matters is that you are the one in the picture in the application, because when u get there on the day of the interview,the passport you bring will be used to confirm the one you used in the original application. if confirmed to be the same person, u are good to go. keep ur mind at rest. no panicking and prepare very well for that daY.

THEN FINALLY, IT IS NOT BY POWER OR MIGHT BUT BY MY MERCY SAYS THE LORD...
FOR BY STRENGHT SHALL NO MAN PREVAIL.

thanks temmytannny and bussyme
I sent the mail on sunday. i'll let d forum know as soon as they reply.
u guys are duin a great job. i'm confident my brother will be granted a visa inspite of the mistake

temmytanny:
Sorry,i tot he was talking about sending forms to KCC,never knew it was email.
Good bro, send an email to them explaining your situation and lets know their reactions. That would determine whether to continue with the application. They will reply you withing 3days

Thanks temmytanny,
i'll do like u suggested. How long does it take for KCC to reply email messages?

temmytanny:
Iguess you may have to explain to KCC about attaching a copy of his birth certificate to it when sending forms to KCC. Make sure you fill the correct name on the forms you are sending to KCC.If possible you can add some other documents to show that it was truly a mistake. About his case number,it may be active before end of the year(dec)
I gues more experienced guys can give more advice to that. Goodluck

Dear forumites, my brother was selected in the DV2013 program. while submitting his entry, i made a mistake in the surname(CHISTOPHER instead of CHRISTOPHER.

I need to send the DS 122 and 230 forms as soon as possible. which of the names do i fill in the forms?
Also, how soon can his interview date be scheduled? His case number is 13XXX.
