adzovia: look is not possible for one person to own 3 houses in the usa. the utilities and the taxes alone not to talk of mortgage. look all the big big people the usa dont even own 3 houses. i am trying hard to believe you maybe your uncle is lying maybe you are telling the truth but for now i dont believe you.

people own more than 3 houses in US,infact someone i know owns 3 but rent out two and stays in one.All houses fully paid and not on mortgage.

Lets roll on and not be distracted,many still waiting for their interviews and numbers to be current needs our prayers,lets keep praying for them thanks

seal777: Can you please give a brief break down of the expenses to be considered within the 4,000 dollar mark : as a matter of fact, i am heading to Texas.

I said $4k cos anyone coming to texas mayneed a car(atleast $1,500)to move around,renting a secured apartment and furnishing it may cost $1,500-$2000 and feeding before geting job$1000.This isnt a must but an advise

gunners4u: Bros temmy wat of new school leavers coming to texas next month by God grace

dont worry,you will get a job atleast a $7.50 per hour for a start

seal777: .


Even when you have a family in the US ready to fund all expenses?.

If you are coming to Texas,please come with atleast $4k if you cant ,never mind oooo .I said so cos about 70% of Texas cities require you moving with your own car,you hardly see public transportation here

emebeteaderashn: hello house i have a question for tammy and other friends who are already in texas,i ll be comming to texas after three weeks and i would like to know about the weather condition so i can arrange the cloths that i ll bring and i would love u to give me any advise for me,new traveller and new immigrant,thanks

weather in Texas have been fluctuating since october,from snow to hot sun to cool breeze.Please come with thick cloth cos even if its warm or hot now,you may think its cold to you cos of where you are coming from.

pjogutum1: Immigrants Help Build the U.S.
House please kindly read this for those of us who are scared that the Diversity Visa Lottery will be closed. President Obama said all on the 17/01/2013. Happy reading...
The President of the United States of America, Barack Obama, and the White House released a very important article about the impact of new immigrants on the American economy and the nation at large. They repeated that America is a nation of immigrants and that it would not be the country it is today without a healthy flow of immigrants who bring their unique skills and customs which ultimately benefit the country.

How do immigrants benefit the U.S. economy? They directly contribute to the economy and social diversity. How so? Immigrants start many businesses in the U.S. In fact, close to 20% of small businesses in the U.S. are started and owned by immigrants. These immigrant-owned businesses create jobs for many American workers employing an estimated 4.7 million people and generating more than $776 billion annually.

Immigrants are also more likely to create their own jobs. According to the Department of Labor, 7.5% of foreign born immigrants are self-employed or entrepreneurs, which is much higher than native-born American. That is not surprising. If immigrants took the risk to immigrate, then they are more likely to take other risks including starting their own business.

New American immigrants are involved in cutting-edge technology and many high-tech companies. Immigrants are responsible for 25% of public U.S. companies that are backed by venture capital investors. This list includes Google, eBay, Yahoo!, Sun Microsystems, and Intel. In fact, immigrants represent 33% of all engineers in America, 27% of mathematicians, statisticians, and computer scientist, and 24% of physical scientists.

A sign that he will not cancel DV LOTTERY

alutaa: For those that are interested, please, google 'EPIC'. EPIC is a software use for healthcare EMR (Electronic medical record).
Although i am not in that field, i know people that did the training (the training is still an in-house training meaning that only a company can send you for the training but, there are few Nigerians out there that are training people on the course) and all the people that i knew that did the training are really comfortable with their life now with a good job or contract job.

Another area that people can look into is IT QA area. Its a good starter area for new people in the State. Rates might not be all that great ($30 -$70) but its a good starting point. If you are in Michigan, i learnt that there was a Redeem church that organised training for people late last year. That can be a good starting point to start making enquiries

For those in Texas and environ, Safety engineering is another good area to focus on. I have a friend that came to the State 2 years ago and did certification in these area and he is doing very well now.

Another good area to focus on is IT. I started my IT career when i came to the State 2 years ago. What i always tell people is that if you can create a facebook account and Twitter account by yourself, you can do IT then. The Indians are not guru or more brilliant than we Nigerians. But the difference is that an Indian focus on IT (which is doing the same thing the same way everyday) while a typical Nigerian will become a Nurse or Nursing assistance immediately they moved to the State).

If you are interested in SAP (Business Intelligence and Business warehousing), let me know. I might be able to use my 2 years experince to guild you in the right way.

But, whatever certificate you are pursuing, its good to have a side job that can pay your bills at the same time. The goal is never to loose sight of your goal or allow the side job become your main focus in the State. Most of my friends and i entered USA at the same time and we all met at Warehouse where we all work as a laborer. But, the laboring job was not our main focus in life despite the job paying about $1700 per month.After working for 4-7 months, everyone of us got a better job in different fields. Unfortunately, there are people with citizenship or green card still working at the warehouse for more than 2+ years. Its not that i am better or we are better but its because we dont want to settle for less in the State.

What i am trying to convey is that we should never loose focus of our aim in the State. You will definitely meet people that will discourage you and tell you that US is a difficult country and that things are hard. Never you believe that.

The most important things is to talk and try to help as many people as possible. He that give will never lack in life.

Most people don't like to talk about their work in US. Personally, i believed that its only a small minded person that will behave this way. We are living in a fast paced information world. What you know today might be an outdated info tomorrow. How will you know the latest tech new or info if you dont talk about what you do or share information. You will definitely meet a lot of Nigerians like this. Just move on and leave them to their outdated ideas. When u are making your millions or six figures, they will be the one to seek you out asking and volunteering info for you.

Sir, am so moved by your comments.I have been thinking of doing safety engineering or moving back to telecoms(which i was doing in Naija).I would be interested in your SAP atleast for now to make money and get settled down before i go back to school hopefully in 2014.I will send you a message soon.I live in Dallas Texas

kinzzo112: @Ibracadabra, please what is the link for driver's license. I will be in Texas this week, so as to facilitate mine. i had my Naija own before which will be expiring by next year. tanx alot

you cant do anything here in TX until after almost 30days.They may not issue you SSN until after 21days and that may get to you after 1-2weeks.Without SSN,you cant apply for driver license and thus you cant driver here except you have international driving license.

garvins: My Artificial home : Here is the letter ooooo................ I need Experience ooooo.... I need answere wey i go give Papa and mama AND entire P.T.A meeting member ooo.

Just follow the orders given to you by the embassy and start praying for good news in 60days time.God will see you tru,you can explain to your parents and let them know there is still hope

idoo4love: Pls Temmy and house members , I need info on WES because I wanna further my education. How do I go about it?

if you can get your transcript by hand,just bring it along, WES will solve it self here.I couldnt get my own transcript by hand and moreover,it would be very cheap for me to start school after i worked one year in texas thats why i never bothered about it now.

emebeteaderashn: hollo temmy and other members of the house who lives in texas,i need some info and advice,within the six month period i cant graduate fom my university so am thonking to come to usa and settle and return to get my degree.what i want to ask is i ll be comming to texas dallas and i would like to know what kind of jobs are available for me,i mean any jobs becose i dont have my pharmacy degree thank u

when u land here,you can hardly go back to naija to do anything.The best is to move over here,get your transcript graded and see where you can continue your education here.Your grade score will determine the level to continue you education.As for jobs,there are lots here mostly in food industries,retails sales and manufacturing sector.Your location in Dallas also matters alot cos dallas alone is like lagos and ogun state combined.If you hear people mention dallas,they may also be refering to DFW, Grand prairie,arlington,plano and over 10 other cities.Most jobs of over $10 per hour(in Texas) require US job reference(u must have been working in US),experiences(you will to convince them that you can do it),handy work(skilled jobs like plumbing,electrician and co),certification jobs etc.
Finally, your host may determine alot of things about how fast you settle down,get jobs and make more money.

nero xp: Yes i nw get u,tanx alot 4 sheddin more lite on dat.pls Gentiger help me wit wat i jst posted nw nw abt hw 2NL looks like wen printed out.mine does nt hav dis headin(U.S. DEPARTMÉNT OF STATE

cenobs007: Thanks house, am a US DV Lottery Winner, i hv bn resheduled for another date. I dont hv any1 in d USA. Is it a MUST i hv some1 ova there, in case am asked & i say no, will dat spoil anytin. Also am sponsoring myself, i dont hv affidavit of support & any tax clearance, hw should i go about it? PLEASE house i nid ur opinion.

are u sure you have been scheduled? what did you write in the address column of the person you will stay with in US when you were returning your DS230 form to KCC?

Bloodofjesus: gud day house,pls i want advice on the story of the single mother which i posted the other time,her 2nl has come and the name of her 9 yrs old son is included and dont forget that i said the name of her son was not included in initial application cos she was played for by an agent i guess,but when she was filling her dsp230 she included her 9 yrs old son name,so she got her 2nl with her son name included,pls house wat do u think she can do.secondly i have been seen people here talking about testimonial,pls i have my neco certificate which i collected from school,do i stil need a testimonial.thanks.GLORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The lady can take the risk but she should go with enough evidence to show the baby is hers and also let the embassy know that someone helped her apply for the lottery but failed to include her baby name.I wouldnt mind a DNA self if she can afford it with other expenses

gunners4u: Bros ojdollar am coming to Grand Prairie hope d place is gud 4 new immgirant

I stay in grand prairie,to make it here you may need a car to get the best jobs around,lots of jobs around here but moving around is very vital.Not trying to scare you but its the fact here and in some places like arlington,coppell,southlake etc.Its only in central dallas that you may find bus or rail to take you to office.

seye4God: Good day my fellow colleagues,

I pray for the goodness, mercy, favour and grace of the LORD to always envelope us wherever we go in Jesus Name. Amen.

Please, which of the photocopy colour should one do for all requirement documents?

Is it COLOUR PHOTOCOPY or BLACK PHOTOCOPY?

Can the embassy accept Laminated documents?

Pls, I urgently need your reply.

all my documents were laminated and was accepted,you can do black photocopies.

mohamed shire: thanks temmytanny, if u know IGCSE certificate is it illegible in dv lottery and what is its pass grade

unfortunately i dont know but you can ask by sending mail to the embassy where you are going to do your interview.

mohamed shire: ok thnks sis i will do that

LESSON TO LEARN
1. please be bold and courageous, look straight to her eyes
2. speak and gesticulate with ur hands even if you dont knw the answers to the question say smtin and gesticulate cos they dnt knw most answers to the questions they ask people i cud remember i gave one definition of theory that wasnt the actual one
3. Make God ur pillar pray fervently for favour from any CO that will interview u coz we neve can tell who the Co will be.
My special tanx goes to Gentiger, Bros temmy,tiwanna J.Don and host of others i pray that those goin 4 interview be favoured and get their visas approved. also 2NL will arrive safely wit no crash on Monday.LOL

congrats bro,i keep saying that BOLDNESS and COURAGE will give you the day, let the CO know that you know what you are saying.
