Sorry this is coming late its been a rough and high tensioned experience actually but thank God its all worth it.. Had my interview ystday and thank God for he has showered his goodness upon me.

Got to the embassy, passed thru diferent security checks, was 1st to get into the interview hall, which i have been avoiding coz i don't wanna be the 1st to be interviewed..but it wasn't in that order i was the fift person to be interviewed, even tho i had the 1st number for immigrant category.paid the visa fee, waited for some mins and was caled for submission of document. Waited for close to an hour b4 the CO's came to their respective windows. The eldest CO called me 2 window 13, the interview was less than 5mins ......

Co:Good morning
Me: morning sir ( nah phonetic i dey speak ooo)
Me: how u doing
CO: fine
Co: are u sososo
Me: yes sir
Co: wanna take ur fingerprints
Me: took my fingerprint, did the oath
Co: u have 2 results here
Me: yes, i'm using a combined result
Co: don't u have result from ur secondary sch
Me: yes, the result was bad, so i don't use it
Co: what's ur highest education qualification
Me: national diploma in business admin
Co: tell me abt ur course in sch
Me: i mentioned some d rest don delete 4 my memory, i just started explaining business administration itself (question wey he no ask)
Co: what do u intend to do when u get to the United state.
Me: futher my education, get a good job and start a new life.
Co: okay let me get this paper, take ur documents back, ur visa as been approved.
Me: thank u sir
Co: when do u inted to travel
Me: in 2 months tym.
Co: u know u must travel b4 ur medicals expires
Me: yeah sirThen he told me abt the GC payment and where and when to pick up my visa
Me: thank u

I was scared b4 the interview but the guy beside me was giving me confidence and i was laffin @ my self, like what's up with me....but its so unfortunate the guy was being denied coz the CO believed his waec certificate isn't original, he checked the internet and saw the result but he still wasn't convinced. He pain me 4 d guy...
That's it folks smiled out of the embassy, filled with joy. It has been what my prayers has been based on for close to a year now, i got out of the interview hall, tipped the securities and bowed to Allah for his goodness and mercies upon me. Alhamdulilai YES LORD, MarylanD here i come

Be patient and wait for your Interview letter in 4 days times keep checking your status just the same way you checked the entry status to see if you have won. You dont need someones case number to compare with yours all those that are in your category are also waiting.

Yusmash00: Please, Can someone tell us about investment in America? And how much I can buy a Condo in Houston or Chicago without Mortgage?

Check out yahoo real estate.And click on own a house.check out any state of your choice.
As regard investment in real estate, I will suggest Detriot,Michigan.The prices of apartment are next to nothing with one of the lowest tax in the US.But security and job is a major concern. A dude told me thing are getting better,as the state government is doing cleanup.cleveland,Ohio and indianapolise,Indiana are also real estate haven. pls do you research and get contact.

I don't think that's fair, having a low cn,not processing your forms early enough,then having a turnaround during the last months. KCC should look into it,giving everyone a fair chance at interview.

Yeah it is not. My friend (Stanley) in 2008 was selected and he never got scheduled. We were keeping our fingers crossed and didn't broadcast it until the curtains were drawn.No interview no visa because of higher case file number and people with low CNs getting the visas.

I was selected on May 1 2012 with 2613 CN and could have been interviewed in October because the cut-off was 10000 and I sent back those forms after a week and after 13 days, the results were rescinded. Not fair and that was the first scenario of this kind.Computer glitch huh! I am still alive.

The only most known way people with higher CNs get called or ALL CURRENT by August or September (although they could ship in more visas to any region and they don't actually exhaust them either)and I think the latter has happened for the past two consecutive years (NIGERIA ALL CURRENT) are when most folks with lower CNs do not get the passes because of no cash, didn't know they were selected, agent wahalla,forgotten or lost Confirmation numbers, fake marriages,fake documents,inability to defend certs. deaths of a principal winners,no more interests and rigors of processing, then the higher case number holders will smile and shine.

My other pal (Tony)that left for TX last Thursday had 1676 and was interviewed on Dec 10 2012. And if you had sent in his application by January he could still have been called sooner than someone with 8089.It's not fair but I think they respect the rule of being Current!

I wish everybody all the best and those with higher CNs too but keep your fingers crossed. Don't think it's a do or die thing. Some with lower CNs still fail (stories abound) and some go into America and still run come back.

Ferdimako: As much as I will agree with most of the contents of your write up this was what I discovered from my little investigation.
1. 6000 Nigerians warn the DV lottery, but only 4,015 submitted their forms as at today.
2. Nigeria alone is entitled to 3, 500 visa’s
3. Since Oct 2012 to date only about 1, 654 Africans has been issued with visa and Nigeria taking about 1, 120 visas.
4. the first 50,000 dv winners released by May 2012, are supposed to be issued with visa first, before the second release of Oct 2012
5. all Nigerians with case numbers below 50,000 will be current by July 2013.
6. this is the second time since the dv result was released that Nigeria is static? The reason is not because of lack of visa, the reason is to allow the CO’s finish with those that are current before taking up more issues
7. between Oct 2012 to date that about 800 Nigerians has been denied visa 4015 – 800 = 3215 put into consideration those that are not Nairalanders that will still be denied visa and deduct it from 3215 and tell me if there is enough visa for those remaining or not.

The truth remains that the next visa bulletin will take if not all most remaining DV winners from Nigeria. I said it from the first day that I am looking forward to August for my interview, I am not in a hurry and the DV have not stopped me from being serious with my life please all yet to be current should do the same, get busy with yourself the visa is sure, use this period of your waiting to organize yourself and do some certifications if possible.
@Ferdimako your case of cancellation and this is not the same situation, the cancellation was a general thing, if you where to be a medical doctor many people would have died in your hospital because of your approach oh! Hahaha.

I don't know where you got those figures from.Do u work at the Embassy? Anyway I want them (those with high CNs) to know that there is a situation like that.My case was the first in history and I don't give a hoot about it any more. If I was told about that possibility, I wouldn't have bothered myself much then. It's okay to know everything and you develop shock absorber. If you are a doctor, you hide somethings from your patients? You could be sued and you lose your license. Don't you see how unbelievable my drift is to them? They need to know and hope it doesn't come to that.

I didn't say the repetition of 17000 was due to no visas...I said it was due to backlog of those with low CNs and who have showed interests in pursuing their cases.Was English the problem?

for does of u going for interview,pls do nt parnick cuz if u do ur body language will change u can even say wat u dnt knw,ok now for a example i had a friend who won dv lottery sme years back,on is form he wrote dat is date of birth was 1987,and is birth certificate shows 1987 but wen he was asked by the co is date of birth he parnicked and said 1980 and he was refused visa cuz of dat,what do u think is de reason for de lottery.america is a great nation today cuz it was build by immigrant,so dey need more people who will add to de economy nd development of dat great country america so wen interviewed talk like u knw wat u are doing be bold as if u are de only hope dey need,let ur body language tell dat u hve alot to add to dat country and also talk like u have idears dat will move de country to dat next level

for does of u going for interview,pls do nt parnick cuz if u do ur body language will change u can even say wat u dnt knw,ok now for a example i had a friend who won dv lottery sme years back,on is form he wrote dat is date of birth was 1987,and is birth certificate shows 1987 but wen he was asked by the co is date of birth he parnicked and said 1980 and he was refused visa cuz of dat,what do u think is de reason for de lottery.america is a great nation today cuz it was build by immigrant,so dey need more people who will add to de economy nd development of dat great country america so wen interviewed talk like u knw wat u are doing be bold as if u are de only hope dey need,let ur body language tell dat u hve alot to add to dat country and also talk like u have idears dat will move de country to dat next level
God almighty please help me.

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
Me: yes
Co: took my finger print
Interview proper:
Co: what do u do?
Me: I do so so
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.
congratulations o

pjogutum1: adeniyisavage:

I don't think that's fair, having a low cn,not processing your forms early enough,then having a turnaround during the last months. KCC should look into it,giving everyone a fair chance at interview.

Yeah it is not. My friend (Stanley) in 2008 was selected and he never got scheduled. We were keeping our fingers crossed and didn't broadcast it until the curtains were drawn.No interview no visa because of higher case file number and people with low CNs getting the visas.

I was selected on May 1 2012 with 2613 CN and could have been interviewed in October because the cut-off was 10000 and I sent back those forms after a week and after 13 days, the results were rescinded. Not fair and that was the first scenario of this kind.Computer glitch huh! I am still alive.

The only most known way people with higher CNs get called or ALL CURRENT by August or September (although they could ship in more visas to any region and they don't actually exhaust them either)and I think the latter has happened for the past two consecutive years (NIGERIA ALL CURRENT) are when most folks with lower CNs do not get the passes because of no cash, didn't know they were selected, agent wahalla,forgotten or lost Confirmation numbers, fake marriages,fake documents,inability to defend certs. deaths of a principal winners,no more interests and rigors of processing, then the higher case number holders will smile and shine.

My other pal (Tony)that left for TX last Thursday had 1676 and was interviewed on Dec 10 2012. And if you had sent in his application by January he could still have been called sooner than someone with 8089.It's not fair but I think they respect the rule of being Current!

I wish everybody all the best and those with higher CNs too but keep your fingers crossed. Don't think it's a do or die thing. Some with lower CNs still fail (stories abound) and some go into America and still run come back.

Ferdimako: As much as I will agree with most of the contents of your write up this was what I discovered from my little investigation.
1. 6000 Nigerians warn the DV lottery, but only 4,015 submitted their forms as at today.
2. Nigeria alone is entitled to 3, 500 visa’s
3. Since Oct 2012 to date only about 1, 654 Africans has been issued with visa and Nigeria taking about 1, 120 visas.
4. the first 50,000 dv winners released by May 2012, are supposed to be issued with visa first, before the second release of Oct 2012
5. all Nigerians with case numbers below 50,000 will be current by July 2013.
6. this is the second time since the dv result was released that Nigeria is static? The reason is not because of lack of visa, the reason is to allow the CO’s finish with those that are current before taking up more issues
7. between Oct 2012 to date that about 800 Nigerians has been denied visa 4015 – 800 = 3215 put into consideration those that are not Nairalanders that will still be denied visa and deduct it from 3215 and tell me if there is enough visa for those remaining or not.

The truth remains that the next visa bulletin will take if not all most remaining DV winners from Nigeria. I said it from the first day that I am looking forward to August for my interview, I am not in a hurry and the DV have not stopped me from being serious with my life please all yet to be current should do the same, get busy with yourself the visa is sure, use this period of your waiting to organize yourself and do some certifications if possible.
@Ferdimako your case of cancellation and this is not the same situation, the cancellation was a general thing, if you where to be a medical doctor many people would have died in your hospital because of your approach oh! Hahaha @.pjogutum1 where ave u been long time hope u are good,I dey ur pot may be my Oga @ the top can read ur analyse,thanks jare
