kaypositve: Good Morning House, Anybody with the flight ticket (round trip) @ the Air port to NEW YORK.

I got mine for approx #144,000

Petsal: Full story now:
Got to the embassy just few minutes after 6am. Waited til about 7am when the 7am appointment were called. Did all the security, paid the 330 dollars, submitted my docs and waited til my no was called. Window 13,14,15 and 16 showed up but later 16 left. Window 13 and 15 were very tough cos they turned down several applicant. The CO in window 14 looks nice so I was abt praying to God to allow the guy interview me when He said to me that its not about nice that its all abt what He's arranged for me. So I changed the prayer and asked Him to have His ways. My number eventually beeped up for window 13. Before standing up, I whisper a prayer asking Him to take absolute control
CO: gud morning
Me: responded gud morning
Co: raise up ur hand
Me: did
Co: do u swear to say the truth
Me: yes
Co: took my finger print
Interview proper:
Co: what do u do?
Me: I do so so
Co: how many sibling do u have?
Me: so so so
Co: how many kids do u have
Me: am single
Co: congratulation, am approving your visa now.
House, I prayed to God that I don't want my interview to be upto 5min but low and behold, its wasn't upto 2min self. I wasn't asked anything about my BSc, O-level, grade nothing etc. Cos several ppl were asked those questions abt what courses they did etc. Met several ppl being interviewed and I stil left them there self. God be praised forever cos His favour actually went ahead of me. Indeed faith works wonder and its just lay hold of the end results. Thanks to the house too. God bless u all.

congratulations o

olsmade: u can pay online. I used GTB's naira mastercard

Edit: oh! Just saw imperioux's comment but i'll leave it for others who might av d same question.

I dont av access to it here

imperiouxx: Sebi you're in US and you've bank debit card.

will get that

Yvete: awww.. good to hear from you I-do-for-Love.
Listen, its challenging to get serious with academics when you start making money peanuts. I write from experience. I don't know how long its going to take me to get through this masters cos' I'm struggling with motivation. In your case, you were almost graduating in Nigeria. Get through with with the bachelors ASAP while adding on new skills that improve your employability; SAP, Primavera, whatever...

People will hook you up with prison jobs, driving cab, Mickey-D's, .... all that cool stuff to help your education, but don't get lost with it. Hope you get in by Fall '13.

tnx dear....and thats why i really wanna act fast on skul p...can i send u a private mail?...my email is praisylo@yahoo.com.. send ur digits so i can call u..thanks so much

Yvete: Wassup I-do-for-Love
I'm doing great. Hope you like it out here. Were you able to apply to schools before coming over? Will be wise to get it done ASAP.
Stay safe out there!

Yea,...jst for d weather bt am getting used to it..tnx ..I was not able to do that...pls how do i make payment for my WES evaluation ?

adesojiaderemi@:
give me your e-mail address.

praisylo at yahoo dot come

pstadabi: ... Amen 0oooo. Thanks a lot.

so hw did it go?

ifeanyi.abdul:
Good day House,
To God be the Glory! Interview appointment was 10am today and it was successful; After going through all security checks and making necessary payments, we were called at window 20 to submit only 1 passport photograph, 1 photocopy and original of only birth certificates for 5 of us and marriage certificate. The guy at window 20 never even demanded for our academic credentials, and we wondered why?
We waited until our ticket number beeped!
CO: Good afternoon
US: Good afternoon
CO: How are you?
US: We are fine thank you, and you? He replied: very good
CO: Please do your thumb prints on the machine - we both did that
CO: Please raise your right hands and promise to .....
CO: To my wife, you are the principal applicant..... my wife answered yes
US: We remained standing with the kids for the interview. I was not asked to go and sit down with the kids

INTERVIEW PROPER
CO: What's is your highest educational qualification
My wife: Answered
CO: Do you have any document for this
My wife: She presents Original and 1 photocopy
CO: Do you have WAEC?
My wife: Yes, and presents her Original WAEC and 1 photocopy
CO: Everything is good, pulls out white paper and hands over to us!

To all members of this great forum, we remain eternally grateful. God bless you in your dreams!

Note: We had 2 birth certificates; the NPC, and the normal birth certificate for myself and my wife. The man at windows 20 looked at both, but choose the NPC. He remarked : your NPC certificate is a certified one (authenticated), and I said yes.
We prepared so hard; asked ourselves questions and even carried 2 big albums for courtship, introduction and wedding, but CO never asked us to present any album and only asked us 2 questions during the interview proper as highlighted above. We can clearly see God's favor and hands in our interview.
GENERAL ADVICE TO ALL: Please, let's not forget our God when we get to the U.S. When things are rosy, let's learn to hold on to God at such times more than when we encounter problems.

wow...congratulations bro...which state are u going to?

brightmon: A friend came visiting from buffalo and she says we are enjoying the weather in CA

hunmmm i see...

pstadabi: Loading...Loading...Loading....3 days to my interview. Pls my pple I beg make una knw forget me in prayer 0ooooo. Ejowo ema je ki owo wo igbooooo.

lolololzzzz...dats kinda funny.. owo o ni wo igbooo in Jesus name..

Yvete: Thought this is about on-campus jobs



I think you need to stay close to the Indians cos' they get everything. I've always thought you had a job as a Computer Lab Assistant or tech support guy. If there's going to be a career fair at the convention, its imperative that you attend.

hey friend..hw r u doing?..and thanks for ur comments in time past...and hw was ur exams....am nw in NY ...whats ur fb name?

adesojiaderemi@:
Please, if you are dv immigrant presently leaving in The United state your experience is needed here,If you are also a dv winner planning to move after a successful interview you questions are welcome , please every one is free to add his/her view.

hello...am a dv immigrant and i moved in 2wks ago...am in NY..Whats ur name on fb?

brightmon: LOL, as for me, am not ready for that cold.

yea...thats through..NY is cold bt its really getting better now that we r in spring... May God have mercy

brightmon: hahahahahaha, na who know watin him dey find dey work like that. Am not single but have 3 dependants and if i should include my mum and sisters back home then you will understand. I no come look white man face.

lolzz....na so o..its only for awhile ...jst to get enough cash and then balance..whats ur name on fb? God bless us..

cacany40: Hello fellow Nlanders. I want to use dis medium to express myself by thanking God Almighty for his good works in my life n that of my Family. I thank God for all participating members n fellow observers like me. Pls house wen praying always remember observers who don't contribute yet they are part of every activity dat goes on in dis forum.

brightmon: Thank you for your understanding, my family is doing great and about work? I give glory to God, the pay is great and i work 16 to 18hrs a day on 2 jobs.

But na wa o.. nobody wants to come to NY?...anybody in NY pls?

[quote author=rood boy][/quote]cant wait for a parry here man....Yankee make sense o..na jst d cold dey do me some how....am enjoying it tou

loconzo00: I give glory to Almighty God who started all by making way for these visas for my family.
I thank the nairalanders who God has used to make the visas a reality.

I tender my apology to all nairalanders for this late testimony.
It is borne out of a very personal reason which i would appreciate much if respected.
Although i have not posted here for a while even before the interview not to mention asking for prayer while going for interview as some insinuated after i decided to delay the testimony but i want to state clearly here that your prayers did not pass us unclaimed. This testimony is the result of your prayers and mercy of THE HOLY ONE above that answers prayers.

I have been playing the lottery since 1995 as single and since 2002 as married.
I played two entries as husband and wife but my wife won.

We got to the embassy with loads of documents and family album that filled a huge traveling bag.
After going through the queue procedure, my family (wife and 3 kids) went in while i was sent back to return the bag all the way to the car and bring only the documents. As stressful as this was,i had to take all the photo albums and documents in my arms. I did this with much sweat but still kept my much needed cool.Even though my wife was worried inside but she trusted that the Holy Spirit was in control.

After all these, we paid and submitted our document at window 15.

NOTE:
A black guy attended to us in window 15 for document collection.
He collected only a copy each of our documents and 2 copies of our passport photographs.
We submitted ALL documents relating to my wife's academic years in the university. I mean ALL we could lay our hands upon. Including registration forms for admission and for various purposes from year one to even her NYSC.
This to our plan was for at least the collecting man to see evidence that she actually went through the university and possibly pass some to the interviewer since that is a key reason for the interview in the first place.
IT WORKED.
The black man looked at ALL of them and made verbal commendable remark on them to my wife before returning them.
He studied us so much including the children that we even thought he was the one to interview us.
Pls do not overlook these document collectors. I believe they are meant to study us and report to the real interviewers.He must have made some positive comments about us to the man he handed our document to and who eventually interviewed us on same window 15.

The much dreaded woman on window 16 did not show up. Window 16 was closed. Thanks for the power of prayers.

The document collector left, closed the window.
After a while , a white man opened the same window and spent like 15 minutes going through our document before calling us.

NO SWEARING IN DONE.
CO FORGOT OR WAIVED IT.
