Gentiger: Gentiger is back, fully reloaded and better informed. I have scouted around various agencies here and can guide all better. As time goes on, I'll show new immigrants how to settle down faster and get a job at the snap of the fingers. I also hope to open your eyes to the enormous business opportunities in the States. If you want to go back to school, I'll show you how without paying a penny in school fees. If you want to marry, no wahala, babes dey.

For those seeking entry visas, the guys in the house are doing a great job, which is why some of us are silent. If It's too difficult to handle, reach out and help will be on the way. I have to go back to work now. My boss is looking at me through surveillance cameras as I perform my duty hourly. Love you all. Have a great week ahead.
If need b,we shal mak our shout out. D sky is ur limit. Gud luck!

Gentiger: Another learned colleague in the house. Welcome brother. Abeg your contribution is highly welcome. Keep up with the Good works.

However, rather than spend so much on police and police arrest, let him use that money to negotiate his way out. The people he's up against could also be lawyers or have access to Good lawyers. More so, you can't possibly tell the nature of the agreement that subsists between the parties. He who comes to equity must come with clean hands.

auschris: Who is d principal applicant? If you are, then expect questions relating to where u wok, wat courses u teach(u may be asked to give details abt a specific course), general info abt nsg etc. U need 2 provide sufficient documented proof of ur marriage(i dnt xpect dis to be a problem). Go and claim ur visa. On a lighter note, we both hv some things in common like being nurse educators, married to nurse midwives, married abt 4wks after DV 2013 entry(Dec, 2011) and have a baby girl. There cud be more if we probe further. Wish u a successful interview

I've been going through this sites and been preparing but I just need more advice on what to focus on,especially since I got married about 3 weeks after the results were released.

My marriage also was just basic registry and all I have are pictures of the registry and out courtship pictures as we've been dating for more than 6 years all through the university.Thanks

pjogutum1: @Husmern: the only option left now is to go with your parent and pled and negotiate with the agents to pay up their money later, since you are sure you warn. Because from your story your dad is already giving up on the whole idea having spent much when you are yet to do your medical and police character, so pled with them they may agree to your terms with God all things are possible, you have already made the mistake.
Great mistake indeed! Since d beginning of d whole thing,terms & conditions has applied without him/her knowing wat are d T&C. Acoding 2 him,d agent claimed only 3 out of 2000 aplicants dat won,even if dey av abt 50 winners,dey cn stil claim,u're d only winner 4 dem 2 request exhorbitant charge 4rm him. There is noting anyone cn do,rather dan him 2 plead 2 dem as u suggested. I stil av sm more suggestion 4 him later. Also keep d gud job going

auschris: I got a cal 4rm a young lady abt 2wks ago. She asked if i was d person dat assisted some of her sch mates 2 enter for DV & i told her i was. She said she wanted to see and discuss something very important. I ddnt bother to ask her wat it was but wondered wat it cud be (cos i gave all of dem their CNs & it was nt yet 1st May). Nevertheless, we agreed dat she shud come to my place on a Sat morning. She came as agreed but her face was nt familiar. I took her up ön this but she said her sch mate her my no. Then, she informed dat she was a DV2013 selectee(a relation in d US entered 4 her) and has sent her forms 2 KCC. Seeing her case no(136xx), i told her she was already current and when i enquired abt her 2NL, she said she didnt have it bt dat she got a mail 4rm KCC. On checking her status, she saw dat her interview was slated for 7am on 2nd April. She told me dat d reasön she came to me was dat she knew nothing abt DV and what to do regarding d upcoming interview. First, I got her comfirmation no and keyed it into d DV website and got her 2NL, sent it to her email(with clear directive to print it later). Next, i asked if she had d necessary documents like birth cert, o'level certs etc. Fortunately, my kid bro(daddykelly) just came bak d previous day 4rm Lag after completing his medicals and police report and was in my house at d time. So, i introduced dem to each other. He gave her info regarding d procedure involved and gave her contacts dat wud make it easier for her to go thru d process without stress. While listing d requirements, we realised she ddnt have an intl pport. I quickly got in touch wit a friend who connected us to an immigration officer dat assisted in getting d pport in a day. She travelled to Lag 4 medicals & police report on Palm sunday and completed d process by wednesday of Holy week. I also introduced her to dis forum bt i'm not sure she followed up on it. However, i shared some testimonies of members of dis forum just to fire up her optimism. She had her interview on tuesday April 2. ...Details coming soon(make i flex my fingers)
Gud job u av done. Keep it up

Spoondar: It is so sad that such people exist. Here in my country all they do is enter for you and pring out your confirmation number or email it to your inbox and you pay them their fee which is around 9 dollars. You should be the one to stop these kind of people by telling the authority and informing the press to warn people.
Ho God! How i wish our peopple cud listen 2 advices,we av been saying it severaly here in dis forum,dat we shud always do it by ourselves. It's so easy 2 do bt why sm peopple are stil lazy? We also av sm agent here in Naija dat register & giv u ur confirmation imediately after negotiation abt $8 or less. About notifying d authority,there is noting anyone cn do about d agent/3rd party regarding DV,it happens al ova d world even in d USA & they know it. D USA agency even charge more dan xpected. Using agent is at our own discretion & does nt guarante success bt if u win,u're gud 2 go. D most important tin is 2 learn how 2 do it by ourselves

Later when d result came out on may1 we wr curious to knw our faith by checkin our status but confimatn no was not given to us. later we jst bone their side jare...But on june , i received a call dt i'm i so so so and i said yes and he then said congratulation dt i was 1 of d lucky winner and i said i did nt belive until he proved it to me and he said he's coming to prove it face 2 face...before he came i av already known d address for checkin d status and when he came like 5 days after me n my friends went to him and we went to d cafe togeda and we ask for our CN bus he said he cud nt release it becos he's workin for d group dt he's only an agent. but we sha enter d address and he's enterin our CN and year of birth 1 by 1 but my own was d only dt brought d congratulatory page and we did all d neccessary tin dt prove it beyond resonable doubt dt i won and he later explained to us dt out of applicants of 2000 plus he registered for in our scul only 3 wr selected ...he then told me dt i shd go n tell my parent, but when me n my broda went to meet dem they begin story dt they av spent alot of money on applicants they registerd 4 dt only those dt wr selected do pay d money and they said we whd pay like 1million naira b4 they reduce it 2 around 800k, we sha just left d place dt we shd go n get anytin we cud get, but later when we 1st gave dem 80k dt was around august dt my package was sent to kcc....but later i realised dt i av made alot of mistakes first by luking 4 free registratn, second, by not negotiatin with dem very well and now i av fallen to their hand my dad has said he doesnt has much with him anymore, dt's y i'm seeking 4 u guys idea on how to deal with dem now becos first, i dnt want to loose d money i av paid jst lyk dt without gettin d visa i'm lukin 4 and secondly my dad might even think dt i collaborate wit those group to dupe him....i'm going for a meeting with dem on monday actually but i jst want to use u guys ideal to talk with dem..Thanks

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

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.
