baba ajala: pls what abt schooling with govt grant does also affects? pls enlighten us on how those free stuff can affects an individual so that we can stay clear of them
the staff that works there told not apply for TANF that it will affect my citizenship but others have no issue because they value the children so much.

As for educational grants, they know you will pay back and better their country if you are advanced in education, so the fund is always available.

thanks and Fod bless you.
1. Where in Texas are you looking to get a job?
2. What kind of Job?

But on a general note, you can make use of the following job sites

1. workintexas.com
2. carreerbuilder.com
3. monster.com
4. indeed.com

You can also submit your resume on the website of any company you wish to apply to. The culture is different from Nigeria, If you are qualified based on what your resume says compared to the specific job requirements, you stand a chance to be called up for an interview which most times will be via phone call.
Your best bet is to always know the job specifications, then adjust your resume accordingly (But make sure it's something you can defend/do).

Note: workintexas.com is specific to Texas alone while the others are applicable in any state in US.

seal777: [b]WELCOME TO HOUSTON, WELCOME TO AMERICA.

Now i can truly welcome myself to America, having done with ALL my documentation processes.

1. GREEN CARD 30th day ( delivered 21st day but was returned due to incomplete address ).

2. Social Security Card 25th day ( having told to return to SS office after 21 days in US....).

3. Applied for State ID and Drivers License having told to return after 30 days in the US and Scheduled for Behind the Wheel test 28th May at the DPS office( not learners permit as advised by veterans in America who even took a bet with me that I WILL FAIL THE BEHIND THE WHEEL TEST ).
Please i have just arrived Texas too. Kindly help me with their office address so that I can follow up on my GReen card and SSCN. Thanks.

4. Took and pass the Computer test same day i applied for the Drivers license and got my State ID same day ( plastic copy came in the mail after 10 days ).

5. Since i drive very well before i left Naija, I walk around the streets on regular basis and watch drivers observe the various traffic signals and rules, read the traffic handbook and research on the internet using various YOU TUBE VIDEOS available in preparing for the test.

6. 28th May , i was at the DPS office for my Behind the wheel test and I PASSED CLINICALLY ( without attending any driving school or previous behind the wheel training from anyone in America ). I was given a print out copy while i expect the plastic copy in less than 2 weeks.


LESSON 1. I noticed there are too many negative thoughts from those we refer to as " VETERANS " in the US, most especially those who find things very hard / difficult when they arrived the US in their days ( with or without genuine documents ). They tend to limit the extent of how far we can go as new immigrant with " LIMITED OR NO EXPERIENCE " of the American system.

LESSON 2. Not all those who live in America actually knows America as i was shocked in learning that majority of the rules and procedures i read on the internet was very true while majority of the ideas been sold to me here by those who are suppose to know ( 10 - 35 yrs in the American system ) are not only false but lack substance in its entirety.

LESSON 3. Never associate or listen to anyone who rather than encourage you in achieving a mission, discourage you by giving you million reasons why such can not be done. There are too many negativity thoughts in our peoples mind here in America and such are capable of undermining the successes of intelligent, educated and forward looking immigrants who left Naija with the will and mission to succeed in America.

LESSON 4. Survival in America is based on the power of information, which is readily available on the internet. Learn to research very vigorously for information, make calls to information's numbers and get first hand information from the source and not rely on HEAR SAY.

If you are convinced beyond reasonable doubt you can achieve a feat, go ahead and give it a try ( having made necessary preparations and caution taken ), you are better of failing at the first attempt than not trying at all for the fear of failure or result of discouraging tales from those around you.

HUMAN WISDOM IS LIMITED BUT WITH GOD, NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE.

BEST OF LUCK TO EVERYONE.[/b]

Hmmm my brother, what has a beginning must surely has an end even if it is a record-breaking thread with 751 pages. This thread is gradually nearing the end of its useful life. But overall it has been great. There is no question on Dv lottery that CANNOT find all various kind of answers here. So it should be kept as a monument.

I love this...the elephant gradually goes to memory and let it be told in history that there was a thread that was the GATEWAY to DVlottery success!

Green card coming in 19 days is correct while you can apply for SSN after 21 days and expect it 4 days later. ( Houston experience )

US embassy doesn't have a car park for anybody, but the moment you are on the street of the embassy you would see touts coming to your aid and asking you if you want to park and they will direct you to where you can park with that fee.

adeniyisavage: i have a funny question,please indulge me.
supposing a married couple played and both won the lottery,and the both have close CNs.
in the event that one partner is denied,can the other spouse use certain documents like medicals,police reports,and payment of visa fees of the previous interview to support the later interview?
second,if one intends to drive himself to the venue,is there any parking space available to him?

sorry o if the question sounds foolish

Yes, the medical is re-useable provided it contains same details with the other person. Parking space is NGN1,000.00 only

That was too much from GTB. Remember 165USD is half of 330USD and people pay N54,500 at the Embassy for one person. GTB is robbing folks!

Highest plus bank charges should not go above 30,000 per head-common this is outrageous!
