Abimbola80: Hallo my people, I got to the embassy around 8:25am with my family. I was called to the queue around 9:15, did all document verification and straight to the other building. On getting there, I paid $1,320 for 4pple at window 22 and submit all my original docs and photocopy for window 19 with Int passport. I was in the front row looking at the 3cos. It was only the CO in window 14 (Young boy) that was nice, d CO in window 13 is too harsh and heartless, just they ask unnecessary question. Cos I was tired and hungry, I prayed for God's favour to have a stress-free experience. To be candid, favour beckon at exactly 12:32, the guy at window 14 called me and my family. This is my experience:
CO: Are you....
Me: Yes
Co: do you swear to say d truth?
me: yes. Then sign the form
Co: what is your highest qualification
me: MBA
co: what is your project topic?
me: Comparative adv in small and medium scale coy in lagos....
co:What is your first degree course?
me: AAAAAAAA
Co: which state do u serve, year and your PPA?
me: Sokoto
Co: bring out white paper and circle the address
In less than 4minutes, this wonderful guy gave me d visa without stress.
I want to show him my documents, but he said i shld keep them.

To be candid, it was God. I had an interesting and wonderful experience. Thanks for your
supports and prayers. This house is too wonderful, let's keep the flag flying.
For those awaiting interview or 2NL or may1 result, I wish you all the best. God is more than enough
congrats to u n ur family sir. u are welcome to U S of AAAAAAA

Music/RadioRe: Ghanaians Mad At Chris Brown For Calling Azonto A Nigerian Dance by papatee2: 3:04am On Apr 04, 2013
bigboyk: My fellow Ghanaians, it surprises me why you choose to argue with these unscrupulous and evil minded Nigerians! These people have perfected the art of piracy and plagiarism. Can't you see how they pirate and repackage even CB's music? Don't you see their Nollywood 20 in 1 DVDs? These guys don't even know the difference between good and evil. These same people praise their corrupt politicians who rob them blind. They are people who have over bloated egos who love to tickle their themselves and laugh. Just like their Chinese masters, their have perfected the act of piracy, stealing and bootlegging. What makes me laugh most is when they say they popularised Azonto and they dance it better! I bet most of them haven't crossed Badagry before. Well, as for me, I know Nigerians very well. They are people who lack principles, who celebrate mediocrity, who hate to see others excel(especially the Yoruba and Igbos), who always try to show themselves wherever they are. I know their country and people. The most ignorant of them are the loudest. Even Wizkid acknowledged the source and origin of Azonto in his Azonto song. We Ghanaians should act as the superior beings that we are. We should stand aside and watch as those savages display their ignorance, evil mind, and inferiority. As the big boy that I am, I'm gonna take a step back and watch as these dogs try to steal what my superior brain conceived. I am so busy making Ghana the pride of Africa through originality. I don't plagiarise. I am a Ghanaian. I am the light of Africa... They claim they are shining but they are like a candle in the sun. We invent... They steal. We are proud of who we are and what we do. No Nigerian dance will ever cross the shores of that evil country! I rest my case.
guy, u're not just crazy, u're super crazy. How on earth will u come to our forum to bribe us to help una promote our dance for una. If u guys kw dat u're upto d standard, go and prove urself to d world without Nigerians help.

ManchyBabe: Hello All,

Am sorry for the late feed back..

My Aunts interview went as thus:
(N:B, They are a family of 4, father, mother, son (12)and daughter (15.5), I will just say the basics since I wasn't there and was just told what the questions are.


CO: Greetings...
Aunt: Replied
CO: How long have you been a matron?
Aunt: so so years
CO: How are you related to the person you will be staying with in Al
Aunt: He is my sister's son (That was my younger brother she was talking about)
And that was it! she couldn't believe he was just going to ask her 3 questions and asked her hubby similar questions and finito!

Am trying to help them get tickets online and boy it is so EXPENSIVE!! So far i have gotten $2,350 per person via United, which is the cheapest so far.
Departing: Lagos,LOS (August 9th)to Huntsville, HSV
Return Date: (October 9th).
Tickets from Nigeria are quite expensive, because i wouldn't spend half of that from here, but oh well.. Please is there anyway i can get it cheaper? Because right now the cost of tickets alone is almost ($10,000) shocked huh ..
goggle search for Emirate or Qatar airline. its around $1000 per adult

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.
congrats to you and ur family

CO: I will ask you one last thing
Me: okay
CO: This gentleman you’ve added here; (he points to a sheet of paper we submitted to update our hosts address) do you know him personally, have you met him before?
Me: Yes, he’s a very close friend, I opened the album to show him pictures with our host, but he stops me. (I guess he realized he had spent so much time with us; about 30 mins)
CO: oh don’t bother.
CO: Throughout this whole process, has he or anybody else asked you to pay money for anything ?
Me: No, not at all.
CO: Please call your wife to come
Me: I called my wife and she came to stand with me at the window carrying our baby.
CO: I am satisfied. I will give you a visa today. He picks the two sheets of paper he had hidden under the counter and circles an address for us to pick up the visa on one, then started explaining the proxy pick up process and the $165 payment on the other sheet of paper.
We: Thank you very much, God Bless you and God Bless America. We hurriedly packed our things and left before he remembers more questions to ask us.

Guys, na so the thing be o !, the guy ask us questions so tay we tire.
We thank God immensely for granting us Divine favour.
I also wish to use this opportunity to greatly appreciate my lovely wife for the way and manner she answered the barrage of questions that the CO fired at her. (I have been playing the DV lottery every year since 2000 and never won, we got married and just played once, then she won.)
congratulation, moving tins next

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.

CO : GOOD MORNING
WE : GOOD MORNING
