sandraluck12: The first thought of any person relocating to America, is what am i expected to bring along that is IMPORTANT, so as to avoid excess luggage and un-wanted/un-useful items. Now, let me share this few tips with you:

First, get your transcript from your universities for those who are graduates and send it to the world education center for evaluation purposes and storage, so that they can send it to anywhere you want in the world in a jiffy without the stress of asking people back home to do it for you or traveling back home. For the hand-skilled, have your basic materials/tools with you.
It is advisable to go back to school after a year or two of settling down so as to help in getting a better job than doing survival jobs all the time. Ensure it has got to the world education center before you leave your country because some hiccups can happen and you have to repeat the process. It happened to someone i know, she did it 3 times! It was due to negligence and mis-spelt address.



Secondly,clothes. Yes, America is the land of fashion and quality stuffs right? NO! Remember, it is the same China that supply them! Some shops sell quality, some semi-quality, some poor quality. I have visited the three type of shops and i can only afford the semi-quality and flee from the poor-quality though it was cheap. The quality-shops are pricy! As a hustling Nigerian, i don't have that kind of money.

Don't go about giving away all your clothes, thinking you will go on a shopping spree here. Ok! if you have the money though.*shrugs* Keep all your best jeans and shirts, suits and NATIVES! See the capitalization? Yes, have many native attires as you can, but QUALITY, see another capitalization? So that it can last the test of time, and not fade after some washings.Likewise your outing and casual shoes/slippers. The only clothes to buy IMMEDIATELY on arrival,is the winter attires if you come during fall/autumn/winter season. The reason for this,takes me to the third advise.


Thirdly,MONEY! See, another capitalization here? We all know the influence of money huh? It can make or mar any relationship. So be very PRUDENT! another emphasis. Don't come as as tourist since you know you have come to STAY! Save your money. Whatever amount you bring along, quickly open a bank account and save 3/4 of that amount and check 1/4 into your debit card for spending. Avoid using your credit cards instantly until you get a job because you will have to take from your savings to pay for it, thus defeating the objective of saving in the first place! Yes, it will help in your credit rating,that you will need when to rent an accommodation, but it is not wise at that moment.

You should stay with a host for few weeks to get your bearing, and depending on your relationship, and how fast you are able to get a job, then get an apartment. Your host can assist you if he/she has a good credit rating or appeal to someone who trust them to help you. That is when you will need your savings to buy the basic things in the apartment and feed.Contribute to the house keeping of your host with common sense, buy groceries that are needed and don't be a glutton, though food is affordable, and plentiful, it does not mean you can go on a eating spree. Immigrants are very concerned about every dime they spend!

A guy shared an apartment with other guys hustling like him. He realized he was the one spending more in the home simply because he just arrived from Nigeria. The other guys always complained of no money for the fact that they had been staying in America for many years. He was yet to get a job and his money was dwindling down. Do you know what he did? He sent the money back home to his account and kept a little,and was managing that until he got a survival job. The money came handy when it was time for him to move into his own apartment. If not he would have squandered every dime and be at the mercy of his host, and here in America, everybody bears his father's name!


The MOST important advise of all is that, DO NOT OVER STAY YOUR WELCOME IN YOUR HOST HOME! It will cause strife!

nery4u: Here i am o! It didn't works out o. The CO said that they dnt have enough time to process my case nd said i have another chance to play in the DV 2014 if i still want to obtain dv visa and gave me the website. He returned all my original documents to me all in the name of time shortage. Besides no denial sheet that will state the reason of my denied were issued to me. Well my conclusion is ''God is still Faithful''. I Wish all dv 2013 winners favour of God in their interview ijn.
Its well bro.Keep the faith,you would still come here to testify and have cause to rejoice.Pls do make sure you enter fr the DV 2014.Cheers.

It was one way bro since you are on Immigrant visa. Qatar airways goes to Houston while emirates goes to Dallas. I need to know the area you are going before i check for you. Just incase sha, Qatar to houston in 3rd and 4th week in jan 2013 is $1030 and emirates to dallas in 3rd and 4th week in jan 2013 is $1110. please note that prices vary with season,demand and other factors. The prices i gave you now could change within weeks lower or higher.

To the whole house, I am not trying to crucify anyone with deficiencies in English Language. I suggest we correct with love and encouragement!! I am sorry if I have hurt you - Bussyme and rood boy, but please just note that our mother tongue in Nigeria, whether Yoruba, Hausa, Igbo or Pidgin is not recognized in U.S. I don't think you can go to U.S. and be talking about promoting your Nigerian mother tongue. Rather, if you speak French etc, it's a plus for you in the U.S.
Someone help us here: Please, do they have interpreters during the interview with CO. I thought the lingua franca in Nigeria is English and the CO's know this. I am not saying your English should be like that of Wole Soyinka, but if you are in an interview and the CO has to arm himself with "bullet proof" for every statement you make, do you think that will be to your advantage. Especially, if you say you are qualifying with education, he may doubt your result if you show him credit in English. You know exam malpractice is on the increase in this country.

Someone please guide me: Are there interpreters at the venue of interview for winners from Nigeria who can only speak Yoruba / Pidgin for example?
I remember a particular couple, d lady was d principal applicant..she came armed wv a WAEC nd OND certificate..At the point of her interview,she began to fidget nd look confused..her husband had to relay d msg asked by the CO to her.D CO had to tell her husband to go nd sit down..I then figured out she wud have a serious problem..The CO kept the interview going and she found it so hard to keep up.I had already concluded in my mind that she was gonna be denied,cos this is simple logic,if u claim to have a waec nd ond degree and can't simply communicate in english language den ur claims are false.
The CO then set a trap for her which she fell for,he asked her if she needed an intepreter which she hurriedly consented to..That did it,he then said and concurred wv my thoughts.He blatantly denied her by saying her claims of having those educuational degrees stated were false,that if she actually had them,she should be able to communicate in basic simple english language and not need an interpreter.
So pls let's all be guided!

Next is to save more, sell all the sellable, dash all the dashable and start thinking of booking your flight probably through Quarta. In the past post, we learnt quarta is cheaper than emirates. But of course if you are well loaded, take a short flight using Delta or united.
So did you pay collection fee. how much?
