[damilola 0]

hello vjs am well pleased to give my experience during my interview in lagos.on the faithful 25th day of august i set my alarm for 4am but could not wait for the alarm so i woke 3.30am and left my house ogijo by 4.20am which is after ikorodu and with speed limit of 60 i got there 5.30 there about but took me some other 15mins before i could park my car in the pay parking lot by 6am i had already parked and join the league of renewal,immigrant and dv standing for instructions,people with big envelops are for immigrant so we are well identified.some mins before the interview a security guy announced that the queue start by 6.30am with renewals and immigrant applicants were asked to open their x-ray and open the medical result sealed in a white envelop cos you wont be allowed to go in with sealed envelops anyway.few mins to 7am we were asked to line up and i was the no 3 on the line and we were about 20-25 by 7.35 i was in and 15mins after i was called for the pre-screening of my documents.please make sure you go with more of the passport 5cmby5cm cos i was asked to present 3 passport size instead of 2 that i had in mind thank GOD i had extras and she requested for my copy of birthcert and i also had one so she told me that am ok but i should wait for the interview,went back to my seat waiting and there came 2 women and a male all the while i was there i was looking around to see the famouse asian lady and indeed saw her and was happy i did even thought she will be there to grant interview but GOD seized her and was not among the cos(smiled).the young white lady reviewd my documents and called my number i.v 3 and walked up and greeted her and she responded brought out my folder which has been lebelled for easy pick of documents and my full pixture album placed it on the arm rest to also intimidate her.the interview began with

taking the oats i mentioned my names during the oats unlike other people then she showed me my form and asked the following questions.

1)asked are you olaniyan oluwadamilola and i said yes

2)when did your wife travelled.

3)why didnt you go with her.

4)where does she works

5)do we have children

6)she said have applied for visiting visa on 2 occasion to visit her and i quickly corrected her and said yes i applied twice.the first one was to visit my aunty and the second one was to visit my wife during her birthday and she said ok fine

7)asked me why do i want to join my wife, i said its important for me to be with my family after been apart for years and she laughed and said my medical and my marriage is genuine and am eligible for the immigrant visa.i said thanks to her and asked me to wait while she print my collection instruction papers.she brought the paper and showed me where to pick it up in 5 days and the amount i need to take along with my and i said thanks but after collecting the paper she did not say what i expected and i asked her that i was expecting to hear the magic words for eligible applicants and she was lost about it and i quickly reminded her by saying WELCOME TO AMERICA she burst into laughter and eventually said it and i said thank you and have a good day while other applicants were laughing .the interview did not last for 3mins and the lady was just too friendly.despite all my evidences she never ask for any.GOD IS GOOD.

i buildup my confidence inside the embassy and it worked.

my advise is that be free and do your homework before the interview and GOD will take control.

LOL funny you say this...my FH is always talking about he's going to do this and buy me that when he gets here. He tells me to pick out whatever I want and when he gets here he'll get it all. I keep telling him things aren't that easy here that he has to get settled, start working, have taxes taken out, etc. He says I don't care honey...all I need is opportunity. I hate to burst his bubble but the good part is once it is burst, I'll be there to pick up the pieces.
