Travel / Re: U.S. Immigration Questions: Ask A U.S. Consular Officer by SDG1(m): 1:05pm On Dec 23, 2017
VisaOfficer:


Good afternoon,

First, the immigrant visa interview is not an interview for a green card; it is an interview for a visa. Green cards are issued in the United States by USCIS after an immigrant has entered the United States and filed the proper paperwork and paid the relevant fees.

In terms of the questions the officer may ask, it depends. Remember that the immigrant visa adjudication is based on the claimed relationship between the petitioner and the beneficiary. As such, an applicant can generally be expected to answer questions about this relationship.

Regards,
VO
Thank you VO,
My question is about the one who is in his home country not who is already in USA, the one who won it but still is in his/her mother country
Thanks

There is nothing to the green card interview. It is simply to ascertain the truthfulness of all information provided in your application. If you have nothing to hide, you don't need anyone's experience. They will always differ.
Thank you very much @TWoods

Travel / Re: DV 2013 Winners Meet Here by SDG1(m): 10:01pm On Dec 03, 2017

DV winners, please read this first ! General Info

Common terms important for Diversity Visa ( DV ) winners:

If you are a DV winner, the result came-out MAY 1st 2012 & we should be expecting some other result in OCTOBER 2012.
There will be 50,000 visas granted : winner ( principal applicant ) and family members are taken into account in the number of visas.


GC = Green card ( ! )

NL = Notification letter: Sent to the ESC website, you'll need to print it out.
There are 50,000 visas, but more people receive a NL, as there are some requirements that may not be met by the applicant ( education, evidence of support, health...), and other reasons ( moved to a different address and never receives the NL, death, changed his mind and does not want to immigrate to the US anymore .... )
So, receiving a letter does not necessarily mean being granted a visa.

KCC = Kentucky Consular Center ( where the NL came from ! )
contact : kccdv@state.gov , and (606) 526-7500 ( US phone number )
You need to know your case number when you call.

CP = Consular Processing ( do the interview at a US consulate/embassy )
AOS = Adjustment of Status ( adjust your visa in the US ) if you are legally present in the US

If you have a valid visa and live in the US, you can choose between CP and AOS ( the "choice" depends on your case number: if high, AOS is risky; the costs for you to fly back if CP ...) . If you don't, then there is only CP.

Case number : that's a very important thing ! ( it starts with 2letters standing for your region : AF, EU, OC SA, AS )
It will determine your interview date if your number is called ( current ).
The bulletin gives you the information :
http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/b...letin_1360.html
In some way, the case number represents your chance to get an interview, thus to get a GC. If it's rather high for your region, you might not be called ( your number is never current, not even at the end ), or being called late ( August or Sept ). But remember that for some countries, name and background checks take a couple of weeks. So, Sept 30th can come before you get cleared...

Also, education and english skills play a role as it will help in finding a job.
The immigration officer determines your potential to become public charge. So the more proofs you provide that you won't become one, the better for you.

POE = Port of Entry : if you were doing CP and were successful, you will enter the US with a brown enveloppe that has to remain sealed ( don't open it, it's for immigration officers ). Usually, it's an airport. There, the process to get the plastic GC will be activated.

Hope this helps cheesy
JESUS IS LORD!!! smiley
