adesojiaderemi@: Imcool congratulations,first on the issue of driver's licence and co;you don't need to stress yourself on that,even if you got all, you still have to pass through the driving test before you can have your your US driver's licence.Concerning CNA;I dont think it is possible to get any training without your SSN,you can still use your Naija passport for one year but SSN is mandatory for training and job placement( you can verify this from American Red cross first).The last question need an advice of a good immigrant lawyer since you didnt include the child and is not over 21 years o. hello...pls what are my chances of getting a gud job because ND is my highest level education (I studied mechanical engineering at yabatech ) ..although I am in 400level here and i'll be coming with my statement of result( unilag )..thank you |

Bigpiper: Had my Interview on the 6th of this month but I couldn't share my experience here because I thought I was dreaming and I might just wake up any time soon. After I collected my passport with visa on it today, I knew it wasn't a dream. Unlike most of you, I have no education besides primary school, I was trained as a mechanic and I must say I'm very good at it. I never knew nairaland existed until after my interview and this account I'm using to share my experience is my big brother's. He played the lottery on my behalf without my knowledge and he said I must share my testimony with you all because u made it possible. Everything he read on this site he related to me. Thank you and God bless every one of you. My interview experience: Interview was scheduled for 10AM, got to the embassy around 9:30 Submitted 2NL at the gate Checked at the Security Check Point. Made to leave my phones behind Made DV Payment Submitted Originals Documents (did not make photocopies) to Nigerian lady She went through the documents, gave me back my primary school certificate and told that they require a minimum of five (5) credits. She went away with the document leaving my primary school certificate with me. Then after waiting a while I was called up to window 13: Me: Good Morning Co: Good Morning Co: Take your finger print Me: i did Co: Right hand up and promise you will tell me the truth and nothing but the truth Me: I promise Co: What is your highest level of education Me: Told her Co: No Waec? Me: No Co: Why did you stop at primary school? Me: Told her Co: What do you do? Me: Told her Co: Where do you work? Me: Told her Co: Tell me about your work schedule Me: told her (explained and narrated for about 3 minutes. She never took her eyes off me) Co: Go and get your visa at the circled address in five working days from today. She gave me another papper with instructions on how to pay the $165. Co: Congratulations Me: Thank you. Two days later I go an email from the embassy to come with photocopies of my birth certificate and credential (waec and above) to the consulate any day of the week beside friday. I got very scared but I went (after adzovia told me I had nothing to be worried about) and I submitted the photocopies. I was told to go and get my visa the next day. Instead of going I kept tracking and the tracking kept telling me "my passport is in post". It was uniqueprivacy who told me to go there, I got there lo and behold my passport/visa has been ready all along. Atlanta here I come ... congratulations bro..what God will do, God will definitely do it... U're so favoured .. Congratulations once again !!! |

You need to start applying to schools towards Summer/Fall '13. If you don't get accepted to a college in NY, stay open to affordable schools anywhere in the States. You can always move back to NY when you're done. so explanatory ..thanks dear |

Allybert: Hi everyone,
To the glory of the Lord and the prayer of you all, I and my wife had a successful interview some hours ago. The CO at window 13 is indeed an angel! Without much ado, I will just go straight to the interview experience proper. But mind you, my wife was the principal applicant. She played as single before we married last year before the DV result.
Co: good morning We: good morning ma CO: Please sign these forms We: Okay ma - we signed the forms CO: Am going to take your fingers print We: Alright ma - ( We did the fingers print) CO: Do you swear to say nothing but the truth? We: Absolutely yes CO: please go and have your sit while I interview your wife. Me: Alright ma. - (I had to stood a few distance away cos I already lose my sit) Co: what is the name of your sch? Wife: Blah blah blah CO: What course did you study? Wife: Food sci & tech CO: Why did you study food sci & tech Wife : Blah blah blah blah CO: What year did you finished? Wife : Blah blah blah blah - CO: Tell me about your course Wife: Blah blah blah CO: No. I don`t want defination. I want full explanation Wife: Blah blah blah blah- (explaining in details until she asked her to stop) CO: Tell me about food processing Wife: Blah blah blah blah CO: What are perishable food products? Wife : Blah blah blah blah CO: How can you preserve them? Wife : Blah blah blah blah - (citing terms and giving examples) Now the CO is typing. CO: When did you get married? Wife : Blah blah blah blah CO: Where, when and how did you meet your husband? Wife : Blah blah blah blah CO: When did he proposed? Wife : Blah blah blah blah CO: What does your husband do? Wife : Blah blah blah blah CO: Can you explain what type of business your husband do? Wife : Blah blah blah blah CO: How much does he earn? Wife : I really don`t know the exact amount CO: You mean you don`t know how much your husband earn? Wife: Yes, because he is not a salary earner. But we are living good. We are okay with what he earns. CO: Oh! yeah I can really see that. - ( at this stage the interview is becoming very interesting to her and what follows thereafter was more like a chit chat) CO: What type of wedding did you do? Wife : Blah blah blah blah CO: DO you have a very big wedding? Wife : Blah blah blah blah CO: Do you have wedding pictures? Wife : yes (my wife brought out our photo book and as she was flipping, the CO asked her to keep flipping. She was smiling, then asked wife to stop and pointed to someone in the picture) CO: Who is that in the picture? Wife : Blah blah blah blah CO: Do you have any courtship picture? Wife : Yes CO: Can I see? (At this stage she was very busy typing and staring into the computer. She did not bother to check the courtship pictures) She then asked my wife to call me. As I was approaching the window, she said to my wife - give me a minute I want to get some papers. Wife: Alright ma - Now I am standing beside my wife and she was whispering into my ear. Then the CO returned with two papers and gave our original documents back to us. CO: MR & MRS blah blah blah, congratulations your visas have been approved. Welcome to America. Go to the circled address to pick up your visas next week Fri. She then explained something to us about how to pay the USCIS Immigrant Fee but we werent really paying attention because we were very excited. My wife was just smiling and saying thank you, thank you, thank you ma! The CO was just smiling......
My wife did a very good job and I am very proud of her. The only question I was asked was "Did you swear to say nothing but the truth" Which I answered "Absolutely yes"
Lessons:
* Be prayerful * Prepare very hard * When academic question is asked, don`t give definations but explanation and keep explaining until the CO ask you to stop. * Speak out loud and look straight into the CO`s eyes. * If married, say things the way they are. Don`t fabricate. * Make sure you are able to defend whatever qualification you are claiming. * Another thing I observed from other interview experiences is that, the CO usually start their academic questions from your highest level of education and if you are able to explain very well, they will not bother to ask you questions from your SSCE.
Thank you and God bless you all. congratulations |

goldenfish4u: This forum has helped me a lot and I want to give back something to married couples in the house, pls dont mind my long story. I and my Wife had successful interview few days ago and appointment was at 9:00 AM in London so we left home very early to avoid early morning traffic. I was initially concerned about my big bag so I asked my wife to put plastic bags in her handbag in case they refused us entrance with such big bag. We found already a small queue ahead of us but most of them were non-immigrant visa. We got checked inside in twos as you will expect- airport style baggage and body scan, my wife was scared when she saw fully kitted police every where even in the compound just as you see it in American movies, all I could say was- God bless America! Getting inside the massive building, we handed our 2nd NL and the invitation letter we got from the US embassy few weeks back to the receptionist. The lady at the reception gave us a slip containing our calling number and was directed to a large waiting hall where we found lot of people waiting for non-immigrant visa and US citizen coming for their passport renewals. After waiting for about 30mins, our number was called, at the window where we met a nice lady and friendly as well. She requested for our notification letter, she went away to bring our file, inside the file was our initial form DSP... we sent to KCC and our medical, she handed out our Xray CD to us which we must take with us and be ready to present it if ever it was requested at the port of entry, she collected all necessary documents starting from birth certificate and proof of Support. She also gave us a courier paper we would use to arrange for our passport to be returned to us, she requested for one additional picture as well, thank God my wife took them with her. Please try to be organized so that you wouldn’t frustrate this people because they are busy and there are still many people waiting. I have two folders, one for my wife and one for myself the principal applicant. All we need to do is to go into each ones folder and bring out original and one photocopy of each document as requested by her. I was happy to cross the first hurdle. I so enjoyed this first part that I wish that was all. I asked my wife that ‘is that all? maybe next thing is welcome to America’ my wife said u are not serious, we are yet to face the real hurdle. she came back and asked us to go and pay the DV visa fee at the cashier desk in window 12 then come back, which I did using my debit card. After that, she asked us to go and wait in the hall again for our number to be called for an interview. I have never been in this type of situation before, this is not a work interview or Who wants to be a Millionaire, this is a life changing experience, future to be determined in the next 1hr or 2hrs but one thing that kept us going was that we have prayed, nairalanders have prayed and also people are praying at the moment even as we were sitting, I was prepared to say the truth with my wife. As I’m writing now I remembered that moment ....THANK YOU JESUS...... After almost 2 .5hours of waiting, our number was called, I pretended I didn’t hear, my wife also pretended, number called again, my wife said is that not our number, I said, I heard it before, I tot my mind was playing games on me. It was a young beautiful lady that was conducting the interview. She asked who the principal applicant is, I raised my hand, she took my finger prints followed by my wife’s finger prints, and we performed the oaths together raising our right hands. The interview: Co: What do you do? Me: Answered CO: Did you use any agent to play Me: No CO: How much did you pay to play? Me: I paid no one CO: Where did you play it? Me: On my computer inside my room CO: Tell me the site you played it Me: Its dvlottery.state.gov or dvlottery.gov.state, one of the two CO: How long have you been playing? Me: I don’t normally play lottery during the paper system, but since the introduction of Online application I decided to play it, so I can’t really say how long, but I can say I started when e-system of application was introduced, it’s easy and straight forward (SHE KEPT TYPING ALL THE WAY) CO: Have you been to the state before? ME/Wife: No CO: How do you want to support yourself and your wife? Me: I have families in the state to live with (AOS from them) CO: How much money do they plan to give you and is it weekly, monthly? Me: I have savings in my bank account (Bank statement). SHE KEPT TYPING. CO (Asked my wife): How do you want to support yourself (Tricky question) Wife: He is my husband so we save together. CO: why did you decide to marry after lottery? Me: We have been dating for 3years now, last Dec 2011 we decided the date for the introduction which was in March, and the wedding which happen to be after lottery result. That was the earliest date we could pick because it’s hard to get wedding date in the summer. So many couples avoid wedding in the winter. CO: Is that your wedding ring Me: Yes CO: Where did you buy it? Me/wife: answered together CO: How many people came to your wedding? Me/wife: we named some CO: When did you start dating? Me/Wife: We answered together CO: Do you live together: Me/Wife: We answered CO: Since when Me/Wife: Answered together CO: Any tenancy agreement with your names Me: yes (we gave her) CO: Any other marriage before this Me: No CO: Any police arrest Me: No CO: Any picture of your date? Me: Gave her CO: I am going to approve your visa Me: Thank you. The secret to my success is the TRUTH. Say things the way it happens, they are human being as well with feelings, be honest and pray very well. Our BIG bag was full of 5 different albums of our life before wedding, during wedding and after wedding. I know we Naijas don’t take dating pictures serious, thank God for facebook, let us try and take pictures as a couple even if we go out together to fetch water from the river. Americans CO believe this is how relationship should be and romantic side of it will proof how real it is. Don’t show them pictures of when you stand together like Idumota soldier, put together the romantic ones even if it is few. The CO took her time to look through all our pictures one by one, my wife too was showing her and telling her the names of my family members in the album, at a point I nearly got vexed with my wife, thinking who is the winner, who is doing the talk!
Note, your partner will play major role though he/she may not be the winner but he/she should be active and sensitive, just as my wife spoke and told the CO the people in our albums. There are questions that require answers from both of you at the same time, so couples be prepared. Rehearse your life experience together and pray; it’s a pity that our country has made this opportunity hard for applicants in genuine relationship because of the foolish Agent doing dubious business. This has spread outside the country and that is why even in London you can imagine this type of experience faced by Nigerians in my situation. I only prepared for academic questions but all questions were based on my marriage. I spent roughly 25 to 30min with the CO. Prepare for everything. Once again Say the truth and the truth will set you free. I will suggest some other proofs I have with me which I didn't use because the Co was convinced beyond doubt but might help married couples;
[b]I understand no gadget, no phone, no laptop or tablet policy, so I think out of the box.
1.I printed some of our dating pictures on facebook for the past 3years, I also click to open each facebook picture’s page which has DATE uploaded on the right with comments, I did the Printscreen (CTR + Print) and pasted on Microsoft word to print. If they doubt, they should give me a computer to open it.
2.I also open our email conversations, did the screen shot and print, or you can print it without screenshot, this also has date on it and time. In case of doubt, I was prepared to show them in my email if they give me computer. To open you conversation, search mails using your partners email, or reserve words like love you, miss you, sex, sex you, missing you, sweetie, pawpaw, honey, names you use for each other when you send email. You will get some of your past conversations etc.
3. I downloaded ‘SMS TO TEXT’ on my android Google play - so I saved all text message between us to computer, opened in plain text with notepad and print out, I was able to print our conversations up to late 2011, that is if you are still using same phone since then.
4. I exported my call logs on my two phones, other phone I have wasn’t android so regardless of your phone, find a way to get right app to do it, i found one on android- ‘Call History’, though I didn’t use it. I know it might be too hard to get your call logs from your phone providers in Nigeria, but you can help yourself. Check it.
5. Any official documents- Power holding Bill with your names on it, change of address of both party from post office in the past if applicable e.t.c[/b]
Thank you all for your advice and prayers, and to my friend who knows himself, he offered to give nairalanders prayer request for me without my knowledge.
Once again Say the truth and the truth will set you free. congratulations to u and ur wife |

seal777: TO THE GLORY OF GOD : SEAL 777, VISA GRANTED 7 FEBRUARY, 2013. 
I had my visa interview this morning at the Lagos embassy in what i can consider the easiest and cheapest interview by a nairalander and my visa was granted.
Depart home 6.05 am, got to the embassy gate 6.58, submit 2nl and cleared with a tag number B417, went through security check and made payment in the interview hall, called at window 15 for submission of original and photocopies of credentials and was ask to wait for my number to be called.
I was there 2 years ago for a study visa which was denied but the whole arrangement has changed compare to 2011 with all activities brought under one roof in an open hall.
I sat in the front row so as to have a better view of other people's interviews but was forced to leave my seat for an elderly woman who wanted to sit close to her son. I ended up sitting at the full glare of the slim white lady of window 16 and I would confess, she was very direct and straight to business unlike others who were very calm and much more friendly in their interviews.
After hours of waiting, I.saw the white guy in window 14 talking to another white chubby guy in the cubicle showing him my credentials in the process and few minutes after that I was called by the white guy in window 14 for my interview.
My interview lasted for less than 5 minutes and it goes thus:
Co: Good Morning Me: Good Morning, how was your nite? Co: Good
TOOK MY FINGER PRINT AND TAKE OATH
Co : Are you ( he mentioned my Surname ). Me: Before he could mention it I completed the names and told him, very correct. Co: What is your highest level of education. Me: Bachelor of science in accounting. Co: Which school is that? Me: Obafemi Awolowo Univerisity, ile ife Co: did you observe the national service? Me: Yes Co: Where? Me: Kabba, Kogi state Co: What was ur service all about? Me: Teaching Co: What are u doing currently? Me: I am the Business Development Manager in my own company ( i had the registration certificate but he never ask me ).
He kept typing and later brought out one white form and circled an address and told me my application is fsvourable and should go and pick my visa next and make sure I pay the 165 dollar green card processing fee.
CO"S INTERVIEW ROLL CALL FOR THE DAY :
Black lady in window 13 : Granted 4, Denied 2
White Guy in window 14 granted 5 visas ( including mine and curiously granted a guy his visa without WAEC. Denied 1
(THE GUY CLAIMED HE NEVER SAT FOR WAEC IN HIS SCHOOL BECAUSE HIS PARENTS COULD NOT AFFORD 34,000 TO PAY BUT INSTEAD OPT FOR GCE WHICH IS MORE CHEAPER 6,500 )[b][/b]. HE NEVER TOOK WAEC AT ALL.
White lady in window 16 Granted 2 visas ( 1 dv and one other to little girl on filling ) Denied 4 married couples ( all with 2- 3 children each ) Pending 1 married ( ask to wait for appraisal of their case ) i left them there anyway. God is my witness, my interview lasted between 2 to 4 minutes because of his typing and was the shortest and simplest of the whole interview I observed in the hall.
Kudos to Kemzone for the indepth links, very educative and informative and to other guys in the house GOD BLESS US ALL.
ALLAHU AKBAR, HIS MIGTY NAME BE PRAISED FOR HIS MERCIES. Me: bef congratulations |

f-geemomen: I woke up as early as 4 a.m, prepared and ready to face any CO at the embassy. I prayed, wore my suite and tire and set of to the embassy. I reached there exactly 5:30 a.m and looking around I was the second person to reach the embassy. I waited under the tree outside the embassy very refreshed and ready. A pastor come around where we were sitting prayed and shared the word of God with us. By the time it was 6:00 a.m a lot of people came around also waiting to be called in for interview. I had a hint to make sure I was part of the first 10 in the line so I started walking towards the gate. At 6:45 we were called in for security checks. I left all coins and mobile fon out just to avoid long hours of wait. I just went tru without any hindrance. I paid my VISA fee and my documents were checked n they collected all thus both original and photocopies. I was called to window 4. I realized that CO denied abt 3 people due to incomplete documents and other reasons...on filling my dv lottery I made a mistake in D.O.B and wrote 1990 instead of 1987, I swore an affidavit and took it along in case I was asked abt it, to be frank I was soo scared, I prayed n left all to God. CO: Gud morning Me: Gud morning CO: raise ur hand n swear to tell the whole truth Me: I did n swore CO: showed me my form I sent to KCC and asked me to answer question 41 before we continued, which was abt weda I hav been arrested b4. Me: I did n she asked me to sign beside it CO: she then made me take the oath again to tell the truth Me: I did just that CO: which year did u complete secondary school Me: I told her CO: what did u do after u completed SHS? Me: I was waiting to be admitted into the university CO: ok, how many times did you write WASSCE? Me: once CO: which University did u attend? Me: told her CO: when did you complete? Me: told her CO: what program did u study? Me: BSc Economics and Business Administration She picks up a blue sheet half of A4 paper and circled the DV and asked me to come pick up my VISA on 8th Feb 2013. CO: congratulations and thanks for coming Me: Thank you CO: dnt make any preparations until u take your VISA. Me: Ok thank you. God has really answered my prayers and that of my friends, family and everybody. I was never asked abt the DOB issue. Thanks to all who help and adviced me along the way. Ghana and Nigeria are really brodas and sisters n I tink we should combine our two countries into one cos we think the same....hahaha that's just by the way. Sori for my long story tho congratulations... I had a similar issue and now I av my visa ..congrats once again |

Yvete: Lol Imperiouxx ex-ed idoo4love out of here! Lol
Photography as a side job (hobby) ain't bad. You can pull some cash with that if you're good at it. Just don't settle though. Pursue the Computer Eng degree and do a masters too, if you can.
I guess that you might end up working in the Prison taking mug shots / Walmart(photo studio) for a start lol, not bad! I think you should round up your degree over here.
Stop looking for cheap schools please. You have a green card so your tuition is affordable. Search google for 'affordable colleges in the Chicago area'. That's if you must school there... Nobody will be able to send you a specific list of cheap schools. Its not all about money sometimes, look for good reputation and strong alumni network with these schools. thank dear...I got that and ama work towards it..I really appreciate ur concern and advice.. God bless u |

imperiouxx: C'mon! How do you think inquiring from only one person in a wrong place will carry any effect? We are here to discuss COMPUTER and you derailed it beyond course, even after she told you the same. You left the main US student thread with lot of Nigerian students widely spread all over US that can get you enough advance begging here. Go to https://www.nairaland.com/994108/general-u.s.a-student-visa-enquiries-part3 or your ask for her private mail..... Abeg! sorry abt tht bro... I sent a message on tht link nd didn't get a reply.. |

Yvete: I'm in TX. You won't start all over, but you can start in your 3rd year (not bad) since you're not an Intl Student. Make sure you get at least 6 copies of your transcript/ND before coming over. You'll need it. You should start applying to schools now.
Wish you luck! thanks..bt y is everybody going to TX...is dat d best state..or ?  I have just one but I will apply for more... Pls what's d tution fee like overthere and do I need to apply through WES ? And what are my chances of getting a good job wit my ND certificate ? |

Yvete: It depends on your major and what you'd like to major in. Would you graduate within 6 months? If not, just request your transcript in NIG and transfer credits when you get here. You must use that visa that God has blessed you with. Don't let it expire in your hands or you'll never forgive yourself. Real talk!
Whats your major? thanks for d advice.. Am studying computer engineering . As for my ND , I studied mechanical engineering. I will buy my tickect next month by God's grace.. Chicago is my POE .. Hws life there..I heard several stories abt Chicago.. U're in which state. ? And Hw many years can it take me to complete my bsc since am not starting from the scratch .. Thanks |
