Spoondar: You must have made her wet the pants with little urine ooh blimey!! excuse my manners but that was what she was looking for. No wonder she started lecturing you so that she couldnt look silly. I second you about English language its a pity that some people cant express themselves well and yet they have degrees.
Thanks dear. You've been a wonderful inspiration around here. May you find what you seek IJN!
TravelRe: DV 2013 Winners Meet Here by Gentiger(m): 4:33pm On Jan 18, 2013
Let me begin by thanking you all. You're all truly wonderful and dearly loved. I appreciate Spoondar, Kemzone, Temmy, Adesoji, Brightmon, Ifeanyi.Abdul, Jidedon, Adzovia, Tiwana, Bussyme, Gunners4u, Junkerhill, Honeydee, Remmy, ChirpyWest, Ibracadabra, and everyone not expressly mentioned. I wish I could remember all your beautiful names. Thank you all for the prayers and inspiration. God bless you all.

I left the house by 4:45am and arrived 5:20am. We observed all the necessary protocols and the checks and got ushered in. I purposely sat in such a away as to have a clear view of the white lady everyone dreads. I needed to inderstand her methods, temperament and ideology should in case I am sent to her.

She denied virtualy everyone who got to her desk. I realized it's not about the woman. It's about the applicants who come ill-prepared. She wants to be sure you TRULY MERIT the visa. Her question are not difficult but tricky and searching. From my interactions with her, I figured she must be a lawyer or someone with legal exposure. She asked me questions, more of a cross examination using legal terms known only to legal minds.

Now this is the secret to dealing with her. Learn forward and look her right in the eyes. That makes her uncomfortable and less composed. It's like turning the table against her. Answer her questions with CONFIDENCE even If you're not so sure of the answers. Maintain eye contact and be polite to a fault. Her approach could make you edgy and could provoke anger in her which always prompts her to deny without mercy. Keep a smiling face and raise your pitch when responding to her query. Use gestures too. All these played out to my favour. Above all, I realized she appreciates good command of English Language. But really, how can you claim to be a graduate and unable to make a sentence that's error-free? Let's polish our vocab.

Me: Good morning lady (with smiles)
Co: Thank you
Me: You're welcome.
Co: Do you swear to tell the truth?
Me: (Still smiling) Absolutely. I do.
Co: Put your fingers on the machine. I want to capture your prints.
Me: Ok maam.....
She takes my prints .....
Co: Thank you
Me: You're welcome.
Co: What's your highest Qualification?
Me: LLB, BL.
Co: Which aspect of law are you specialized in?
Me: Bla bla bla.
Co: Tell me all you know about a valid contract and what makes a contract enforceable?
Me: I lectured her with decided cases and statutory provisions
Co: Tell me the aspect of law you find difficult.
Me: I told her.
To my surprise she began to lecture me on it. I chip in facts from time to time to buttress her points.
Co: Have your original documents
Me: Thank you maam! (With a broad smile)
Co: I am going to issue you a visa.

There were two sheets before her. One was for denial and the other for approval. She pulled the paper, circled an address and asked me to pick my visa on Friday next week. I enjoyed my time with her. I am sure she enjoyed my company. She's such a lovely Angel to chit-chat with.

It's Geeeentiiiigeeeeer!!! I had a chit-chat with the CO today and it turned out beautifully well. Like I did say, it was a gentlemanly conversation and everything turned out pretty well. I'll squeeze out all the juicy details later, but for now, let me contain the overwhelming joy with prayers of thanksgiving to the FATHER!!! Catch you later guys!!!!

junkerhill: u can use both. Go with ur neco, then wit a scratch card print out ur waec and go with it. Hence u have u NPC birth cert. The date on the waec matters less.
When going for your interview, there's no harm in going with EVERYTHING you got. Leave nothing to chances. If you got 2 WAEC results, present the best and keep the other as a backup. Always be ready to defend yourself with documentary proof. That's a major secret to visa interview success.

And @garvin, no panic if only ur documents are genuine but if not sure of ur documents, join us in 21days of prayer and fasting,ok? @all, u will succeed IJN, amen but please!please!!please!!! Be prepared, they can never deny u visa if u can be urself but anything short of that will be game of probability. Goodluck to u all and I hope this forum will continue in the USA for us to be assisting ourselves there. To me, friendship continues. @Brightmon, tell me what you know about fontana in California.I appreciate u all and I will say a very big SEE YOU GUYS IN AMERICA in capital letter and with excessive boldness.

N400 for 2 pages? That's exorbitant except of course you are printing in color. I so my printings and photocopies from home so can't tell the current rate. What you have is okay to go with. If however you can afford a black/white corrected version, that's also perfectly okay.
