According to me WHAT???? How does this stuff get mixed up. The process is working the same way it has always worked. DS260's are processed in date submitted order. Documents are process in CN order (BUT with very few cases processed to DR level this has been getting mixed up). Cases cannot...

You are really confused. There are two methods of processing - CP (consular processing) or AOS (Adjustment of Status). The latter method is available to those that are in the USA on some non immigrant visa (NIV). If you plan that method, then the DS260 submission is optional (but...

Future lawsuits could change things of course, but in a normal year we see DR and DQ continuously starting from May. The fact that it didn't happen for DV2022 is NOT normal - but of course if that is all someone has seen, they might think that is "normal". It's not that they stop processing the...

"which I’m certain Simon will also agree with in this case" - Yup. A few days off on travel history - totally trivial, I would never have recommended unlocking for that.

1. You should not make assumptions based on one case. 2. Yes there are differences from country to country based on documentation standards, government cooperation and capabilities and so on. 3. Cases process at different speeds based on the complexity of the case.

This FIFO rule refers to DQ date. This is thoroughly explained in court declarations, and observed in previous years.

Nonsense.

Yep - this is the second batch going out - more in line with how things "should" work.

There is a LOT of really confused information flying around at the moment in Telegram channels and forums. That's somewhat normal but there are more bad theories than facts. Some have assumed that all DS260s submitted on a given day will be DR'd the same day. They won't. Some have been...

Yeah, not really impressed. I'm not sure why Omar thinks this is so important. I read it before, nothing much of interest unless you previously had no idea how things work at KCC. And the report is from 2019 - so really not very useful in knowing how they have operated during the pandemic. As...

They are still dealing with DS260 submissions in late May and early June. So - be patient. However, there is no harm in sending documents proactively.

Getting locked out is ONLY a problem if you fail to enter the details correctly multiple times.

That is the DQ email. Just wait for scheduling.

The embassy don't schedule DV interviews. KCC do that. So - unless you are DQ'd, current, and scheduled by KCC, contacting the other consulate is a waste of time. What I "expect" to happen is that KCC will schedule at Sydney - and that embassy will move cases as appropriate - *IF* it is agreed...

You should not wait for KCC to ask for documents. Send them.
