I guess you haven't had the interview yet, right? If you pass the interview and a DV immigration visa is issued to you, then all your existing non-immigrant visas will be cancelled without prejudice. It was my case, they cancelled both B1/B2 and H1B visas I have had.

Ladies and Gentlemen, We'we got our DV visas today. The interview has been very short and easy since we already live and work in USA on H visas since 2013. I can't wait to fly back in US and resume our life in the place that we can already fell it like new home. Thank you all for this great...

Hi, These days we are in Bucharest, Romania, for the interview. I've just received the medicals. They are in sealed envelopes, one for each member of the family. There is no clue on the envelopes if we got medical clearance or not, and the medical staff at pick-up didn't say much, just a vague...

Congrats, NordDE :) Did you file an apointment (online, such as on ustraveldocs.com, or elsewhere) before the interview?

I agree with you, britsimon. I let the consualte officer know abut my concerns. He said that technically I'm right, but that never happened. Quite odd. I think I'll wait for the next visa bulletin to see wheter June is current or not (99% it won't be current IMO, so visas will be still...

I've got an auto-generated email coming from "noreply@state.gov", asking me to check this page for updates (login with your confirmation number): https://www.dvlottery.state.gov/ESC/ You can check that page from time to time if you're affraid that the email won't make it to your inbox...

Hi Davzone, Did you call the US embassy in Hungary? What they said? I'm in the same boat like you (I would like to postpone the interview). I'm from Romania, so I called the US embassy in Bucharest and asked them about risks of postponing. Basically, they said that once I have been...

Hi folks, I've just received the invitation, I'm CN EU 30xxx. :) It will be at the end of May. I'm already in US and my daughter is in school. The summer vacation is starting in the middle of June, and I think it would be good for her to finish the school before we'll be traveling back to our...

Thanks SusieQQQ and britsimon! I guess I haven't read all the instructions on their website, or I just missed that part... Does anybody know from what e-mail address the notification will come? Just to setup an exclusion in my spam filter to NOT filter out that domain (I get tons of spam...

Folks, So are you saying that one can find out about the interview date from the entrant status check page? ( https://www.dvlottery.state.gov/ESC/ ) Actually, I went to the "instructions for selectees" page on http://travel.state.gov/ and realized that it's not clear how you'll be informed...

Hello britsimon. Any news with your H1 visa? Are you in US already? I relocated in November last year to California (with H1B), so I've been too busy to read this forum. But now I'm back. I've seen the cut-off for March is 20,050. When do you think we'll receive the invitation? (we have almost...

Call them to clarify your status. I've called KCC once and after a long wait in the queue (40 mins) I was finally able to talk to a very helpful officer. Be prepared to provide all the info they may need (case numbers, etc).

Yes I know, but where to look for not-biased media? That's why I asked for the source.

Hello Eucn, what's the source of this? Today I've found this info, on http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/10/01/not-everything-shuts-down-in-shutdown/ : "Except for some potential glitches, passport and visas will be handled as usual, both at home and abroad."

There is another forum for L or H1 visas. However, I think that is better to call USCIS or the US consulate in your country and ask them.

Thanks britsimon, this clarify things. As about the notification date, I guess it will be only after my CN becomes current in the visa bulletin, right?

Hi, I'm new here and I've read in the forum than most of you have received confirmation from KCC by e-mail for the forms sent after DV selection. I didn't receive such confirmation. Some weeks ago I wrote an email to KCC asking about my documents. They responded with: "Thank you for your...

Thanks a lot britsimon, tons of info there, indeed... :) Here is a quote from AOS 2014 thread: "All 2014 diversity visas have to be distributed between October 1st, 2013 and September 30th, 2014. No exceptions. If you don't get an interview until September 30th, you don't get a green card."...

re I have to find my time and study this AOS path because many things aren't clear to me. Such as, when AOS, should USCIS wait for my DV2014 case number to become current and only then schedule an interview (the same procedure as CP)? I'll post the results of my searches if the info is not...

re This is awesome. You may already pack your stuff for US :)
