All Ethiopian 2017 DV Winners Meet Here!

Hello dear forum members,

I got a question on the ds-260. I will be competing my degree in Jun 20--the course work-- and graduate in July 5. So, When I fill the form now, can I put the future dates as:
Degree or Diploma: BSc degree
Date of Attendance From: 05 Sep 14. Date of Attendance To: 20 Jun 17, or I have to wait until I gradate? Also, is this attendance to date, a course completion date or graduation date? In this case, 20Jun17 or 05 Jul 17?

Also, my dv application was submitted by my brother and when he put my date of birth, he uses the Ethiopian calendar without conversion to European calendar--8 yrs difference in between. So, do you suggest to correct it now on ds-260, or just leave it as it is and explain the issue at the embassy during interview. I called at KCC and told me to correct it, but if I do it, they my think intentional/duplicate and disqualify me. Same may happen at the embassy, but at least they know the calendar difference. Regarding my documents, including my birth certificate, the date of birth is written in both calendars and no issue. Thank you.

I doubt the system will allow you to submit the form with a future date listed. You may either have to wait until you graduate to complete that section or put ongoing/present or something similar to indicate you're yet to complete the program if you want to submit now.

Put the European calendar date on your DS260 form. KCC does not disqualify people, you'll have the opportunity of presenting your case before the IO when you go for your interview. The error can be explained, especially since you have both dates already listed on your B/C.
