*Special thanks to ALL Nairalanders and a special shout out to the brain behind Nairaland *Respect! GOD Bless America for the opportunity and GOD Bless Nigeria and help us attain our full potential-Amen.

#Observations and Advice- I discovered we carried d biggest bag among all,fully loaded with supporting documents ofcourse but after submitting d necessary docz,nothing was requested from us again. Not even our Photo album *Note -this doesn't mean people shouldn't go with necessary supporting docz,cases differ...The most important thing is to (1) Acknowledge GOD. None of us selected him/herself,Na GOD do am. (2)Prepare adequately *there is nothing like 'over-preparation'. (3) be cordial with pple in d interview hall and compose urself very well *couples should chat a lot while waiting for their turn nd try to crack jokes to ease tension. (4)Look around briefly and learn quickly.*no need to dey change seat. (5) if one of the couple is asked to go and sit while they interview d other d one being interviewed dnt need to repeat d question or shout so the other can hear. (6)The Co will only ask u what they expect u to know so jus be calm and answer as if u r chatting with a friend. No be JAMB. Lol


Met with @Lakesyd family inside d interview hall.I feel sorry for their denial but GOD knows best and he certainly know what is best for them. Wishing @Lakesyd family all the best.


Success to all looking forward to their chat with d CO by GOD's grace,Amen. GOD that counted myself and family among the permanent winners will do it for you all,Amen! Blesss!!!

Yes there is a hotel at Obalande that is more cheaper even below your 6,500... let say 5,000..

VisaOfficer:

Good morning,

I'm glad you asked this question. The answer is, it depends. If DNA results are the only thing missing from the case, we generally contact the applicant for the follow-up interview in just a few days. If we're awaiting (for example) DNA results AND a divorce certificate, the case goes back in the pending file while we wait for the applicant to bring the divorce certificate.

We're not able to process a case the very same day DNA results arrive at the Consulate. That's because this is how it works. Right now, on my desk, I have 12 FedEx envelopes containing DNA test kits or results -- many of them with several kits or results all in the same envelope together. Today is a light day, too. Let's just talk about results: First, keep in mind that they likely arrived in the mailroom yesterday, along with ALL the rest of the building's mail, and had to be sorted before they showed up on my desk this morning. I'll check the results and make a quick note of them before handing them to my staff, who will pull the files, scan the results into the cases, and pass the files back to me. Then I'll go through each case and make a note of what the next steps are -- for instance, one will be ready to issue, another would be ready to issue if the medical paperwork hadn't expired, one still needs a follow-up interview for other reasons, etc. The cases then go back to my staff and they contact the applicants to schedule new appointments, ask them to drop off new medical reports, etc. as appropriate. But this entire process can take a day or three, because at the same time we are also doing everything else: interviewing today's applicants, printing visas, answering e-mails, analyzing reports, making schedules, etc. etc. etc. We try to do it all as promptly as possible, but sometimes we get e-mails that say "I know you received my DNA result this morning and I would like my visa this afternoon," which just isn't realistic. And that's why I'm glad you asked the question -- so I could write "That just isn't realistic" and manage some expectations.

Wow! And you still have time for us on Nairaland! You are selfless indeed. GOD bless you real good for your selfless service

Laffing... wow.what a way to start the first work day of the week! Its going to be a fruitful and joyous week for us all by HIS grace *i can feel it already . @our amiable VO,thanks for relieving us on the VO thread and for checking on us over here GOD bless u more-Amen! Blessed day y'all.

VisaOfficer:

Just be ready to explain. If your birth certificate and passport show the same date of birth, you [b] should be all right.

Thank you for your prompt response,I really appreciate.
YES my birth certificate and passport does show the same date. I am thinking of going with some pictures I took back in school days. Thanks once again,I really do appreciate.

Turlest:

she did not go with the scratched card

So what was the outcome bro? Hope it ended well.

Hello VO,thanks for your in depth analysis on various issues concerning Immigrant Visa on this forum. I believe u are impacting people positively with your good work more than u probably think
Am a 2014DV winner and our interview is scheduled for Mid August. My major concern is this; the date of birth on my school certificate reads 20/02...(20-february) while my actual date of birth is 21/02...(21-february) what proof do I need to rectify this mistake? Aside affidavit that is. Thanks.

:D007,Congratulations bro! Like I told u on the phone,u can only imagine but you have no idea how many people are happy and thanking GOD on your behalf . Your efforts av paid off. It is your momment,enjoy bro.

To GOD be the Glory,big congrats to those whose Visa has been approved,it is indeed the Lord's doing and it is marvelous in our sight .By the special grace of GOD,the shout of victory and rejoice will not seize n this forum IJN-AMEN. special shoutout to my August team-DKG,FELIXFELIX,LAKESYD......................and my humble sef.other team members whose name i dunno,kindly holla back so we can get acquainted.success is for us all IJN-AMEN
