timimoyegun: Seubis, pls were u asked of your job appointment letter?
Obatide, kevwe pls contribute

Basically, Job Appointment letter is not part of primary requirement, especially if you qualified on Educational basis, but people's style of response to the C.O's questions might prompt that request (u know C.O can use their discretion at times which they can still defend)
my advice: Dont answer what you were not asked see SEUBIS and some past interview testimonies as an example - straight answers.
I hope it helps?

seubis: On behalf of my wife and maisef,we wanna say a big thank you to u all for ur prayers.my prayer for those waiting for their interview and 2NLs is that the Lord God almighty shall grant u divine favour on the day of ur interview IJN.My 3 gbosa goes to roodboy,tycoon,obatide.we shall all meet in the state to celebrate our victory.one love ma pple.Jesu Loba oooo

You are really on point & God will allow dat day to favour u, but don't you feel giving us detail of the process of Medical & Police report in Details, even including how you moved to bit Lagos traffic, fees paid and the likes will help some people?
Pls gist us b4 we protest for "concealment of testimony materials"

kevwe_flex:

Good day. Just go with the computer print out and scratch card and be prepared to explain to them what happened to the certificate, should they ask. With that you are good to go.

Thats another alternative, good one

Doublegold: Happy weekend friends, pls, I lost my WAEC certificate last month, now preparing to go for affidavit and police report so i can go to WAEC office and something i can be using since they wil not issue another certificate. Do u think the embassy will accept it, and it won't affect my chance?

What you need to collect is Confirmation of Result from WAEC office.
Its issued in confidental envelopes, looks like certificates and most of times, it's even more authentic than certificate.
Hope this helps?

rood boy:


Gbam!!

Rooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood boi
wetin dey happen na?

olutola1: Well, I guess I must have read it somewhere. The info could be referring to LagosIV. I'd say since some people have successfully attached their forms, there's no problem. @Obatide and Kevwe, appreciate your correction.

No offense bro, its part of what makes the tread growing, at least we are all improving in learning and cutting off the exploiting touts, its my prayer that we will all have smooth interview and great testimonies.

Note: pls don't stop posting cos fear of failure or criticism is the total acceptance of failure

Once again, You are welcome

candytos:

Congratulations on the addition to ur family. because of Jacob God blessed Laban, because of this bundle of joy God will bless n take ur family to ur desired city in the USA IJN amen.

Ameeeeeen & Thanks bro.
wishing you all the best too

olutola1: kindly note that KCC wouldn't accept any email attachment. Just saying cause I don't know which forms you talking about. Wishing you the best.

Where do you get that from?
It's only LagosIV@state.gov that does not accept attachment, don't give mis-leading information pls

You may post your proof if you disagree

You are warmly welcome
To start with, you may visit http://www.travel.state.gov/visa/visa_4756.html
OR
www.dvselectee.state.gov

Those websites have information on the forms to fill, i.e DSP 122 & DS 230
If you have further questions, then feel free to ask
Pls feel at home here, we are all here to share Ideas & help each other

ItyRoyal: hello House, i'm new here can someone welcome me? (smiles) my spouse is one of the winners on DV2014 lottery....what do we need to know?

In addition to the response, to make it faster and cheaper, u can send complete forms as outlined by kevwe (scan as a single document after you sign them) to their e-mail KCCDV@state.gov

secret: it even allow you to av a good record of your correspondence(s) with them for reference purpose.
Hope it helps more?

kevwe_flex:

Good morning. Please give her the link to where she can download the form. She needs Adobe Reader XI to be able to fill the form on the system, save it before printing it. Then she will sign the part she has to sign i.e. Part I of the form and leave Part II. After that, she'd need to send the form as well as her passports photograph to you, so that you include it with yours before sending it to KCC via courier which you can track. Never send yours separately and hers later; disqualification.
Take care.

tosinjoe: Hello house, I need ur advice on this, I played d lottery as single but got married January ds year, d issue is that my wife stays in the uk, how do I get her form across to her to fill, note I hav a high case number, 16***, do I still stand a chance? Thanks

femishow2005: @Obatide
I mailed you .ok you can reply thanks

i av done that almost immediately sir, note: i saw only a request

VisaOfficer:

Ah, sorry to have misled you! Yes, the DS-230 is still being used for Diversity Visa applicants. Sorry, I'm so used to saying "DS-260, DS-260, DS-260" these days, I forgot about this exception. You can fill out the DS-230 for the baby.

Thank you, apology wholeheartedly accepted.

I got another reply to a follow up e-mail sent to LagosIV@state.gov
it is as follows:

Dear M.. ..........,
Thank you for your email. Diversity Visa applicants are not required to fill out the DS-260. You are required to fill put DS-230 on behalf of your baby. Please visit http://travel.state.gov/visa/forms/forms_1342.html
Sincerely

so, on behalf of every member of the family, I say a big thank you for all swift responses.

My advice:
If a tread like this is not dis-continued, it will ease your work and cut totally, all touting activities.
Can you imagined that at the discovery of NAIRALAND, I have not discuss our wining with anybody and we can say we have most information needed for our success.
More testimonies after the interview Day (which I guess u know)
once again, thank you and God Bless you

VisaOfficer:

You can get the Invoice ID number from NVC. Given that this is a Diversity Visa case, though, you should contact KCC and ask them what to use as your Invoice ID number. Congratulations!

Thanks, yes it is a Diversity Visa case and that reply was from LagosIV@state.gov
OR
Do we fill DS-230 for the baby?

Firewami: @komakan, The guy that played d lottery for her happened to be an agent and he did nt know anything about my wife, we got married last december and our baby in september, the guy located us in August so we are yet to start anythin on it.
pls assist, because i'm a novice on this issue and i can't completely trust these agents.

You are good to go.
fill all neccessary forms as married once u av confirmed your case number.
it is called visa lottery, so they are aware there could be a genuine status change, so dont panic
All the best

Hope this helps?

Dear Consular Officer, Kindly help on this:

I wrote to your office to update our birth status & below is the reply.

Thank you your inquiry regarding your diversity visa application and Congratulations on the birth of your baby.
All diversity visa interviews are handled at the Consulate in Lagos. You may attend interview with your baby with the following documents: a completed DS-260 application form, National Population Commission birth certificate, International Passport, 3 passport photos, medical report, proof of relationship and visa fee.

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us any time.

Regards,

My question is this, when we attempt to fill DS-260 online, it requests for the ffg:
Enter the NVC case number located in the instructions that you received from the National Visa Center (NVC).
Enter the NVC Invoice ID Number provided to you by the NVC. The information is located in the NVC instructions you received.

these we dont have, except case number which we entered. Pls, how can we obtain the INVOICE ID Number?
Thanks ahead

Madu77: Goodmorning house. Please I need so more clarifications on this. I sent mail to KCC that the wife put to bed and kindly read the reply,
Thank you for your inquiry.

Family members not included on the initial entry may cause the case to be disqualified. Extenuating circumstances such as; you have been married or had a child after the initial application submission may be acceptable. If you meet either of these circumstances a photocopy of the marriage and/or birth certificate, along with English translations, should be provided with the completed forms. If you need to obtain additional DS 230 Parts I & II forms, you may download them at: http://www.travel.state.gov/visa/forms/forms_1342.html .

And this is the second reply

"When a new baby is born at the interview take the following
1. Take the visa photo for it
2. Take the original birth certificate and relevant documents
3. Fill the visa application for the baby
4.Be ready to pay for the baby's visa fee."

Please can somebody help me to interprete this more because am about to send the form and passport of my new born baby girl. Thanks for your earliest reply.

I Have a similar issue like yours, you know, and this was their reply:

Thank you your inquiry regarding your diversity visa application and Congratulations on the birth of your baby.
All diversity visa interviews are handled at the Consulate in Lagos. You may attend interview with your baby with the following documents: a completed DS-260 application form, National Population Commission birth certificate, International Passport, 3 passport photos, medical report, proof of relationship and visa fee.

kevwe_flex:

Happy weekend to you and members of your family too. Congrats on the addition to your family.

Thanks so much, good news will abound in everyone's home

chiwuike20:
Yea, its true. If u update ur status, they update all d infos, including d date of processing. Its priority changes from wen u 1st sent it to d day u updated dem.

I sent my forms on may 23, wch under normal circumstances, wud have been completely processed in late July or early August, automatically making me current 4 Oct interview. But I updated dem in July, wch changed my processing date, shifting my interview date to Dec. I had a low case number 000005**

I Concord with this position, that's how it is

Fortsucc: Please forunites, there is something disturbing me since my arrival, the sheet that was attached with the yellow envelop that was given to us along with our passport,that sheet was collected from us by the immigration officer at the poe,my question now is that our we not going to use the sheet for our gc processing,your reply is needed urgently,thanks.

Congrats, God will perfect the rest including gainful employment/career

komakan: I dont think of being current for now Obatide. My cn is 16,+. I need enough patient.

God will make it simple for all of us, Im current in December, please everybody, pray for us and other forumites who are also current for the period, especially 4 God's provision in this time and beyond

G2Glory:

These photocopies does not include police report? Your answer pls.

I have a birth certificate issued in early 80's but i was born in early 70's. This birth certificate is not the short form & i need someone to help me with what dimension of the long birth certificate is?

Hello sir, hows madam and kids?
How has it been with your NPC stuff and Your interview, hope successful?

ogundipeola: hello my ppl, pls while my bro is waiting for the 2NL, can he proceed with the medical and police report document? pls your swift welcome to this will be highly welcome. cheers!

he needs to present 2NL for medical @ least. so he should be patient cos medicals even expires in 6months, police report 3months.
so to avoid double spending, advice him to wait for 2NL & 2 weeks to interview b4 proceeding for both.
Does it help?

komakan: Goodluck! Were you able to collect your Police character result immediately and when will you get ur medical result? I'm a family of 5, I hope 500k will be enough for Medical and visa fee. Thanks.

we have something similar
visa processing fee $330 multiplied by 5= $1650 = N272250 @ N165 per $ (emberssy rate)
police report for 16years and above person, say you and wife = N6000
NPC: 2 attestation & 3 birth cert = 10000 aprox
Medical: depending on the ages of your kids, just appropriate something average based on people's testimonies on 2013 tread, im of opinion that your budget is okay

I hope it makes sense?
