Dear vacancy,I remembered we highlighted this issue earlier on this thread, and also took effort to anylise all the blunders and corrective measures you may take,it seems you are unable to take a personal decision or waiting for someone to hold responsible incase of any occurance. Please, no one can beat his/ her chest to tell you the outcome of your mistake. All you need to do is to man-up ,pray and make a decision. The point still remains that there must be a corellation between your passport,birt certificate and marriage certificate. Since your wife is the principal applicant your certificate has nothing to do with this.Abo oro lan so f'omo nu'abi, to ba de nu e, a do dindi(a word is enough for the wise).

@ Jidedon, now you comfort my heart! I believe you IJN. You know, I had read in the past about the rapidly n ever changing policies of the U.S. Govt. Somehow, I also read about the so called "Countries of Interest" by the Obama administration and how they have sliced down the number of enterants from Terrorist Nations. All these caught my attention, but now my fears are allayed. Thank u @ Jideon! Kindly reassure me, the Nigerians that have seen their 2nd NL: are they members of this forum or are they your neigbors? @ Jidedon, pls make u know laugh me too much o! Getinger, are u still in the house: so silent these days. I salute you o!

fregur: Hello forumites,so sorry I couldn’t post d experience yesterday.after my interview and all I had to rush back to work and all. To be very candid and sincere,it was a wonderful experience all through to the end.Let me categorically state here if all you claimed and stated in your forms are real and sincere then your rily do not have any worries,the visa ia already yours except u falsely claimed anything.I found out that the interview is just for 2 reasons:to confirm yout eligibility based on your entries in the form and also to ascertain your claims made.Thats just it,very simple and straightforward.Let no one be scared, anxious ,feel jittery or frightened.I need not state anymore that all you need is just confidence and be courageous .I looked my interviewer in the eye and intimidated her that she was the one smiling at me all through and had her eyes on her computer while my interview lasted. My interview just last 30 secs cos I timed it. My interview was slated for the 13th having been postponed frm the 4th,I prepared for the interview 2 days earlier,arranged all my forms,sorted them out.Pls make sure u get all ur stuff arranged before the dday and rechk to confirm.There were incidents of people that forgot one document or the oda,pls also make sure u arrange them i.e. putting all ur photocopies together,your originals,passport,medical and the rest to ease the pressure of u wen u get inside to submit ur documents.some of the Nigerian officials der were unnecessarily aggressive with people who hadn’t sorted it out and kept shouting at them.You do not need such kind of attitude before your interview pls. Pls make sure u go wv money in excess of what u need,that’s very key and important.I didn’t like the embassy’s attitude to that.inthe mail that was sent to me,they stated that the visa was N52800 or $330.I got there only for the rates to have changed and the price increased to abt N54500.I was lucky I went wv N60000,so I had enuf for maself and to lend to others.A lot of people were stranded and I mean it.The Nigerian officials at the counter showed no emotions to sympathise and people were not allowed to go out toget cash.They has to resort to begging for money from interviewees fr non immigrant and immigrant visas in the hall.Sopls go with excess cash or u do the exchange rate tingy and go with exact $330 to be on the safe side. When you r inside and your fees have been paid,pls and pls keep the slips given to you safely.Guard it with all you got,without it no interview fr u except u pay all over again.A couple kinda lost theirs and it wasn’t funny. I noticed that couples with children and couples were attended to first,so just sit down,be calm and be relaxed.Donot fret at all for any reason,amuse urself by looking arnd,listening to people been interview and picture urself in the flight to God’s own country already. Do not take in your fones or anyfn prohibited,if u have it there u cud give to the policemen/women arnd to hold till u r done with ur interview.I had an incident that almost marred my day.i had my companys id on me and my token was attached to it.i ddnt knw the token was a prohibited item,wen I got to the fifth security clearance,they bounced me cos of it and trust me wen u get bounced at an of the security clearance even if it’s the last u would have to go all outside and start afresh frm the beginning outside and that could put u under some form of pressure,so pls avoid this.Women pls no powders or perfumes! Lemme relate my experience frm the start of the say till my interview ended before I bore u with all my talk.i woke up as early as 3am cos I stay very far frm the island,got prepared left my house arnd 4.I got to the embassy some mins to 5am.i had to wait outside d carpark.for those of u that have cars,you cud drive and park at the carpark but wud be charged N300.waited at the carpark for abt 30mins,the gates were opened by 5.30 so I drove in and parked.Cos I had my envelop and stuff arranged already it wasn’t a problem coming out.i used some time to walk around,inhaled some fresh air to calm my nerves down and all and walked to the front of the embassy.Men see peopleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! At exactly 6.30am, a young man walks up to where the crowd was gathered and made some announcement,divided us into lines,immigrant and non immigrant.All those nurses and doctors dat said don’t open ur medical envelopes,all dat one na story. We were told to tear open all envelopes including the medicals,then the checks started,your name is checked on a list wv ur interview invitation letter and ticked.About six security chks till u get inside the embassy.A number was given to us.pls guard it well.payments are then made according to the numbers given to us.I got in and sat down,excused myself to the restroom to ease myself cos I was pressed.Then people started having issues with the payments cos of the diff due to the rates,it wasn’t funny.After the payment, I took a seat strategically across t ... he hall so I cud view all the happenings.few mins later my num was called.Pls also make sure u listen well for ur name and num when its called.i walked to the naija woman in the counter with all my envelopes,photocopies & originals,cos I had already arranged it,I made her work easy and also frmyself.she actually commented that I was the most organized person she had attended to so far and dat even boosted my morale the more,so pls help urself boost ur morale by being organized and all.Pls make sure u go wv at least 3 extra passport photographs.i was only asked for 1 while some people were asked for up to 3.i watched as the diff naija people in the counter were busy abusing and even insulting some people cos of the stress in gathering the documents nd stuff togeda.i looked across the oda side of the hall for non immigrants and engaged myself in listening to their interview process while we waited for our.after u r done wv submittin ur copies and all,a file is opened for u and all the ds 230 form nd odas r all put into one file then u r ready fr an interview.All these last till about 8.30am.I closed my eyes and said a lil prayer,committed my interview and interview into God’s hands and asked for favor.Trust me do this cos he rily favored me.At some few mins to 9,the interview proper started with one balded white man coming into a cubicle,this man was a case,he refused the first 2 couples dat came to him and I noticed he spent too much time when interviewing spending about 15 mins per person.he was later joined by 2 ladies,a black American in her early or mid 20;s,she ws d nicest and very friendly.all the while I was listening to the other interviews asking various questions and all then my num was called and she was d one to attend to me.co:Goodmorning
me:goodmorning,hw r u nd hw was ur nite?

she filled lagos in her form for the place of the interview,@ifeanyi abdul she means its double the price of what we pay here plus is it necessary for her to translate her credentials to english? Cos all is in french.

iceberg54: I hope this doesnt mean that applicants from Egypt, Ethiopia and Nigeria wont be considered for the october draw?
Please, enlighten me people. Thanks.

it means applicants from Nigeria, Egypt and Ethiopia with case no 5500 and below are current while applicants from the other country in Africa with case no 8000 and below are current. This is due to the volume of applicant from Nigeria, Egypt and Ethiopia.

hituneu: she filled lagos in her form for the place of the interview,@ifeanyi abdul she means its double the price of what we pay here plus is it necessary for her to translate her credentials to english? Cos all is in french.

ok, if thats what she filled then she will be interviewed in Nigeria. But she may need to get a police report from both country.

@ Getinger, Glad you are there! One love - I dey your back o!

Thanks for your reply bro....sorry am new here cos i just found this thread and i really dont know much about this stuff. What does it mean to be "current"? and how do I know my case no? Is it the one sent when an applicant has been selected? Expecting your reply bro. Thank you.

I concur with brightmon. Just to re-affirm that she is in order. No problem for her at all to do her interview in Lagos! I hope the cost of translating her French credentials into English wouldn't also be too high for her. You may also find out the cost she is talking about. The visa fees are the same in dollars. If she has to get police report from both countries, that will mean increasing her expenses. I am just wondering how it's cheaper in Nigeria. May be it's the medicals. In any case, insofar she is sure of what she is saying that the cost is cheaper in Nigeria, then she is good to go since she she filled Lagos as point of interview on her forms to kcc

brightmon:

police report from both countries and what else?

First of all, are you one of the lucky winners of the dv 2013 lottery. If yes, then check the print out in which you were declared winner, and you will see your case number boldly written beneath. It begins with the year of the dv lottery you played. e.g. 2013, then your region e.g. AF for Africa, EU for Europe, AS for Asia etc, then finally your number which has eight ( 8 ) characters.
This is how a typical case number looks like: 2013AF00008501. All these make up the composition of a case number!
If you check the last visa bulletin, 8,500 was current for Nigeria. It means that the above case number was cut off and so not current. In other wards, all case numbers below 8,500 will be current based on the release of the last visa bulletin. 2013AF0008501 is a hypothetical case number. It may not exist for your information! It may exit for another region, but not necessarily Africa.

hituneu: police report from both countries and what else?

Nothing else, except medicals! She can book flight from Nigeria or Cotonu! I believe her passport will be from her country. I can't think of any other expenses, except petty expenses like cost of snapping passport photo for the visa interview, cost of taxi to the embassy, cost of lunch etc. ha ha ha ha!

Okay, I just got reassured that 2nd notification letter for others are coming soon. My friend Getinger even reassured me in his last thread saying 2nd notification letters will flood in before month end. It's only less than 14days time!!
