brightmon: I know that my brother or Sister. Go back and read my post, i was not expecting to see that high CN among the 1st batch but expecting to even higher than 100,000 after Oct the 2nd batch.

hituneu: and how much is that in Nigerian money pls

hituneu: I guess because she did it @ cotonu?but am scared for her cos sshe is so anxious but something else is making her sad cos she submitted her forms late,so she thinks she won't be able to make it and again her case number too.

The thoughts coming into your mind is that of "ABSOLUTE SUCCESS"
I want to re-assure that you will succeed. If you have any doubts, please feel free to share it on this forum. I am sure many will be willing to help you. I have gained considerably from this house, and I can tell you of only three things that can make you fail the interview.
1. A sham marriage
2. Inconsistency in the information you earlier sent to kcc viz a viz what you will present on interview day
3. Inability to meet up with minimum school requirement.

I hope you feel better adzovia!

adzovia: it is not even fun having your 2nd NL early. i have finished preparing all my papers and now i am so anxious waiting for October to come. and you can just imagine the thoughts coming into my mind

@ Jidedon, now you comfort my heart! I believe you IJN. You know, I had read in the past about the rapidly n ever changing policies of the U.S. Govt. Somehow, I also read about the so called "Countries of Interest" by the Obama administration and how they have sliced down the number of enterants from Terrorist Nations. All these caught my attention, but now my fears are allayed. Thank u @ Jideon! Kindly reassure me, the Nigerians that have seen their 2nd NL: are they members of this forum or are they your neigbors? @ Jidedon, pls make u know laugh me too much o! Getinger, are u still in the house: so silent these days. I salute you o!

What is signature? your first name and your last name is your legal identity, you can decide to change any coded signature at any time there is no legal implication to that here as we profess to be in naija. my wife change her "signature", I change mine too.The most important thing are your first and last name, date of birth and your picture.

fregur: Hello forumites,so sorry I couldn’t post d experience yesterday.after my interview and all I had to rush back to work and all. To be very candid and sincere,it was a wonderful experience all through to the end.Let me categorically state here if all you claimed and stated in your forms are real and sincere then your rily do not have any worries,the visa ia already yours except u falsely claimed anything.I found out that the interview is just for 2 reasons:to confirm yout eligibility based on your entries in the form and also to ascertain your claims made.Thats just it,very simple and straightforward.Let no one be scared, anxious ,feel jittery or frightened.I need not state anymore that all you need is just confidence and be courageous .I looked my interviewer in the eye and intimidated her that she was the one smiling at me all through and had her eyes on her computer while my interview lasted. My interview just last 30 secs cos I timed it. My interview was slated for the 13th having been postponed frm the 4th,I prepared for the interview 2 days earlier,arranged all my forms,sorted them out.Pls make sure u get all ur stuff arranged before the dday and rechk to confirm.There were incidents of people that forgot one document or the oda,pls also make sure u arrange them i.e. putting all ur photocopies together,your originals,passport,medical and the rest to ease the pressure of u wen u get inside to submit ur documents.some of the Nigerian officials der were unnecessarily aggressive with people who hadn’t sorted it out and kept shouting at them.You do not need such kind of attitude before your interview pls. Pls make sure u go wv money in excess of what u need,that’s very key and important.I didn’t like the embassy’s attitude to that.inthe mail that was sent to me,they stated that the visa was N52800 or $330.I got there only for the rates to have changed and the price increased to abt N54500.I was lucky I went wv N60000,so I had enuf for maself and to lend to others.A lot of people were stranded and I mean it.The Nigerian officials at the counter showed no emotions to sympathise and people were not allowed to go out toget cash.They has to resort to begging for money from interviewees fr non immigrant and immigrant visas in the hall.Sopls go with excess cash or u do the exchange rate tingy and go with exact $330 to be on the safe side. When you r inside and your fees have been paid,pls and pls keep the slips given to you safely.Guard it with all you got,without it no interview fr u except u pay all over again.A couple kinda lost theirs and it wasn’t funny. I noticed that couples with children and couples were attended to first,so just sit down,be calm and be relaxed.Donot fret at all for any reason,amuse urself by looking arnd,listening to people been interview and picture urself in the flight to God’s own country already. Do not take in your fones or anyfn prohibited,if u have it there u cud give to the policemen/women arnd to hold till u r done with ur interview.I had an incident that almost marred my day.i had my companys id on me and my token was attached to it.i ddnt knw the token was a prohibited item,wen I got to the fifth security clearance,they bounced me cos of it and trust me wen u get bounced at an of the security clearance even if it’s the last u would have to go all outside and start afresh frm the beginning outside and that could put u under some form of pressure,so pls avoid this.Women pls no powders or perfumes! Lemme relate my experience frm the start of the say till my interview ended before I bore u with all my talk.i woke up as early as 3am cos I stay very far frm the island,got prepared left my house arnd 4.I got to the embassy some mins to 5am.i had to wait outside d carpark.for those of u that have cars,you cud drive and park at the carpark but wud be charged N300.waited at the carpark for abt 30mins,the gates were opened by 5.30 so I drove in and parked.Cos I had my envelop and stuff arranged already it wasn’t a problem coming out.i used some time to walk around,inhaled some fresh air to calm my nerves down and all and walked to the front of the embassy.Men see peopleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! At exactly 6.30am, a young man walks up to where the crowd was gathered and made some announcement,divided us into lines,immigrant and non immigrant.All those nurses and doctors dat said don’t open ur medical envelopes,all dat one na story. We were told to tear open all envelopes including the medicals,then the checks started,your name is checked on a list wv ur interview invitation letter and ticked.About six security chks till u get inside the embassy.A number was given to us.pls guard it well.payments are then made according to the numbers given to us.I got in and sat down,excused myself to the restroom to ease myself cos I was pressed.Then people started having issues with the payments cos of the diff due to the rates,it wasn’t funny.After the payment, I took a seat strategically across t ... he hall so I cud view all the happenings.few mins later my num was called.Pls also make sure u listen well for ur name and num when its called.i walked to the naija woman in the counter with all my envelopes,photocopies & originals,cos I had already arranged it,I made her work easy and also frmyself.she actually commented that I was the most organized person she had attended to so far and dat even boosted my morale the more,so pls help urself boost ur morale by being organized and all.Pls make sure u go wv at least 3 extra passport photographs.i was only asked for 1 while some people were asked for up to 3.i watched as the diff naija people in the counter were busy abusing and even insulting some people cos of the stress in gathering the documents nd stuff togeda.i looked across the oda side of the hall for non immigrants and engaged myself in listening to their interview process while we waited for our.after u r done wv submittin ur copies and all,a file is opened for u and all the ds 230 form nd odas r all put into one file then u r ready fr an interview.All these last till about 8.30am.I closed my eyes and said a lil prayer,committed my interview and interview into God’s hands and asked for favor.Trust me do this cos he rily favored me.At some few mins to 9,the interview proper started with one balded white man coming into a cubicle,this man was a case,he refused the first 2 couples dat came to him and I noticed he spent too much time when interviewing spending about 15 mins per person.he was later joined by 2 ladies,a black American in her early or mid 20;s,she ws d nicest and very friendly.all the while I was listening to the other interviews asking various questions and all then my num was called and she was d one to attend to me.co:Goodmorning

Ashes0725: Hello everyone, i had my dv visa interview yesterday and it was sosuccessful and stress free. The
CO that interviewed me on window 13 was black and indeed nice. No tough questions at all, she even gave me a chance to go outside and get my us address and return same day. The questions i was asked were peculiar to what i do as a videomaker and computer science graduate, and i think that format also applies to everyone else. Even while waiting and listening to other people's interviews, the main question i heard was like "what was your favourite course in school?" and when you reply, they'll ask you to talk a little bit about it. So you can as well prepare a particular subject you'd like to talk about.

@ Busayo, thanks so much for your empowering write ups! I believe you have helped me n many others on this forum! God bless u! Did u book for ur sister online or via agent? Which agent or genuine online site for making payments? Bravo!

ifeanyi.abdul:
@Getinger, it's wise not to take chances! I totally concur with you. Who knows, this might be a once in a life time opportunity! We should'nt be unserious when beautiful opportunities like this come our way. Remember when Yakubu had a beautiful opportunity to score a goal, but he messed up and because of this whenever a Nigerian throws away an opportunity or penalty, you will say: He Yakubued the ball!

My brother Getinger, I feel u too. Thanks for ur contributions. May God bless you n may He lead us safely into the United States of America, Amen!
