Firewami: Thank alot for all ur numerous counsels on this forum, pls do i still need to print the back code sheet and submit it with our application, is it a must? The reason is that the agent that played for us does not want to release the confirmation code to us and without the confirmation code i can't have access to the back code sheet. The agent is pestering me for N200k, which i'v being persuading him to wait until d visa is granted, can i go ahead with processing since i have case number and selection letter with me?

toye88: Thanks @outstandingsand...
@bukiema...i will try and list

after the swearing and finger print, the questions asked were:
CO: what are you doing now
ME: Working at...
CO: when did you start working:
ME: 20....
CO:Before now what were you doing
ME: Masters
CO: What skool
Me: Univ....
CO: ohh I love that skool. What is your job function
ME: Risk Mgt
CO: how come you are not doing something related to your course
ME: started working in this particular industry & I have since been there.
CO: ok..thats good

After some few clicks she smiled and told me congratulations and welcome to USA. By the way, the CO was an african american (beautiful lady!)...so I guess my mind was not in the questions being asked ... she then gave me 2 papers (1 for visa pick up, the other USCIS payment).

I forgot to inform you guys that my interview date was shifted. It was initially billed for October 31st, however, I received a call informing me of the new date of 13th Nov... I was a bit annoyed because I felt a mail should have been used to back up the call (for me that was standard going by my training). so i mailed them that same day...the response i got was stunning...I was told I could not reschedule a date after the date advised (13th) and if i missed the interview that would be all. waiting be dis, see me see wahala, na me beg u say make u shift am?...was so furious so I almost sent a stinker mail to them...but after persuasion from my friend and colleague, I dropped the idea...

The cab that took me there had no bright head light... was scared wen we got to 3rd mainland and the whole place was dark...this was arnd 4.45...@bukiemma I tink I have tried...need to get back to work!

Obatide: Thanks bro, Happy sunday sir and hows ur family doing?
To me, we are just rubbing mind and the more you tell people what you know, the likelihood of knowing more (my mathematics policy )
but jokes apart, you are a great contributor on this thread

Wellton: Please house I need ur help!... I made a change of name(Surname) after my secondary school in 2001. Now all my documents including my GCE results and first degree are in my current surname since then. And I also wrote NECO SSCE in my current name in 2005 but the results were cancelled
My problem now is that I want to collect my secondary school testimonia and I am confused if I should ask my school to issue my testimonia in my old name or current name. Thanks in advance for ur contributions.

kemikemmy: [color=#000099]Please i like to know if there is any good advice for a single mother (never married) without children father's name on
children birth certificate that won the lottery. All her form to KCC stated single and only children name included
I've read several post and comment but there is non that answer the question.
She like to know what to do. Any other alternative? or she should just forget about the whole thing.
Please your advice is needed urgently thank you. Under the Visa lottery instruction it is stated that both
parent name must be included.

please help!!!


If 1) The child was included in your initial DV entry
2) You can prove that the child is yours and s/he is really yours,
My sister, I am very certain that you are good to go. Except if and only if you had the child before the initial DV entry and you did not include the child as your derivative and you want to include the child now, my sister, automatic disqualification for you. You may be charged for alien smuggling and face possible permanent ban from entering the States.
My advice: ... I'd rather not say now, I will wait for your response. You may also ask the VisaOfficer via the link Obatide also gave you, he is in the best position to answer you.

Obatide: Though your question goes to those who have been interviewed, but before they respond, may I try to answer with my little understanding of your question? (though, I pray to have successful interview too very soon)
To start with, beneficiaries are not mandated to submit their evidence of education but if you have it handy, no crime
Also, for Principal Applicant whose certificate is mandated, it is stated that proof/evidence of completion of 12years of education (bolded), which means if you are submitting GCE (being an external exam), a testimonial will be considered but if NECO, WASSCE or Any approved internal exams, Testimonial is not compulsory
Does this help a bit?

kennex89: thanks bro this helps. My wife is just the one that needs to show evidence which i know all her papers are complete and she has her testimonial too.

XYZZ: Please house, for those who are waiting for their interview and those who are waiting for their 2NL, please I beg you fill free to ask any question if you have any challenges or if you need assistance towards your preparation. We that have gone for our interview are in better position to answer questions,they are many people here who will assist. For the fact that u won the lottery and they sent u r 2NL means that they have allocated a visa for. So please always say the truth no matter how silly the truth is. Go and take ur visa.....

Obatide: umhhhhhhh

Obatide: Long time Mr Timi,
It's part of required documents for process of NPC stuff. It's already attached here on my reply to @Darmhee, at 4:22pm (Nigeria time) in previous page, kindly click:
https://www.nairaland.com/1275397/dv-2014-winners-meet-here/134
Other documents needed are: sworn affidavit of Birth, 2passport photo and Nationally Recognized form of Identification.
I'm doing my best to get set, thanks
Hope it helps?

@kevwe, maybe u don't take note, after submission of above listed other documents in NPC office, what will convey Your request is that covering letter/application. However, they do refer applicant to manual typist around their office to get it typed at a fee, but trust me, just feel people could have it handy to avoid unnecessary stress & exploitation, which is the primary purpose of this thread.
Any contrary opinion?

Obatide: The attached is self explanatory.
its for people who are processing their NPC attestation/cert. in Lagos.
Guess you have done yours in Edo state?

TCPonly: Bro,thank you so much,i appreciate u. Dont worry the visa is yours in Jesus name,Amen.
I got to Benin city around 7:00pm safely.

Obatide: The covering Letter/Application is attached here for everybody to prepare
Bolded, people who have done it can comment

TCPonly: Let me first of all thank God Almighty for this blessing & great members of this gr8 thread for ur love,support and prayers.
We got to the embassy by 5:33am and meet close to 30 pple.
Did normal security checks and entered the hall. I was called at window 16 to sumit documents. And later my no beeped at window 14 (the 1st person to be interviewed) with this young white lady and it went thus;
CO: Goodmorning,are u TCPonly
ME: Yes,goodmorning,how was ur nite
CO: fine,and u
ME: fine

That was it oooo my people.My greetings goes to roodboy,obatide,jollyiwin,daudsmart,buklan4real,lagdude,outstandingsand and all members of this gr8 thread 4 ur love & support. I love u all.

Madu77: My good people, I wish you to thank God for my life as I mark today another birthday in my life. Indeed God is faithful to me especially for making me a selectee of dv2014 and adding another baby girl (Chiazam) to my marriage in october. Sorry it came not too earlier, I was about celebrating with my family b4 I was called back to work by 9am(Stress). God bless you all as you pray for my family till we see in USA. God bless Ameria

XYZZ: House, first of all, thank God. And i would like to thank every body in this forum for all your kind encouraging advise and support, its always nice to have people like you guys. I am so grateful to be part of this family.

It always nice to have a strong defence if you are not sure of some documents should the CO ask you about them. I have gone to US embassy sometime in 2007, which i lied that i was in the Nigeria Navy, all in the name of yanky... I also said i was married then but all na lie, anyways they denied my self and 2 of my guys visa. So i was so scared that these will come up. Even my Waec date of birth says 1986 why my International Passport is carrying my real date of birth 1979, i was also sacred that this might come up. To cut the stories, God always have his ways. I thank God cos none of all these errors were asked.

My Interview:

Our Number deep in windows 15:

CO: Good morning Sir
Me: Good morning ma

CO: Are you Mr. XYZZ
ME: Yes ma, and she turned to my wife and asked her the same question

CO: Can you please raise your left hand and say u will say the truth and nothing but the truth?
Me: Yes ma

CO: can i take your finger print
Me: Sure, so she took our finger print:

Co: Whats your highest level of education
Me: XYZ

Co: What year did you get married
Me: XYZ

Co: What’s the date of birth of your son
Me: XYZ

Co: What do you do at work
Me: YXZ

Co: For how long have you been married
Me: XYZ

She started typing and brought out 2 paper and advice us on how to pay our Green Card fee, and said welcome to America; i asked her if that’s all? And she said yes that’s all.

I just want to thank God cos i have been praying and asking God for easy interview and that was what God did for my family, my wife is a lawyer and the CO did not ask her any questions, i was suppressed.

For people that are waiting for their interview, listen the visa is yours go and pick. Texas loading........

TCPonly: My people,our visa was approved this morning. Interview experience shortly.
