You will receive an email from noreply@state.gov with the subject heading: Required Entry Status Check for DV Submission. You click on the link provided in the email and key in your 16 digit CN with your name and DOB to get all the details of your interview. You will not get this notification if your number is not yet current. Judging from your number, you cannot be current for November/December or January. Go through the DV website and look at previous years numbers for your region to give you an approximate month when your region was current.

I have some questions. I'm a student. What are the forms/things that I *do not* need to provide? For example; do I need to provide Application of Employment? probably not. How about Notice of Actions for Employment Authorization? EAD?

*I work as a TA

Also, about the financial details. Do I need to provide bank statements? I can provide the last 3 paysubs, is that enough? Also how about my tax return... I did file those but the amount of money was nothing much (they barely pay us)...

Thanks

Why don't you do the interview in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia?

But yes, you could travel to Ethiopia to do your interview if that's where you will be residing.

Yes you can do the interview where ever you want since you have residency in that country and you requested when you filled your form DS -122 or you can change the place by contact them .

@samirah, first of all did you get married after being selected in the lottery or you were married before you entered the lottery???
.
If you got married before you entered the lottery then you should have entered Married on your initial application. And if you did not then there will be a problem at the interview.
.
But if you got married after submitting ur initial application and sending DS 220 + DS230 forms then its ok. You just have to go to the interview with ur husband and fill for him form DS230. When you go to the interview you have to show proof that you were married after being selected. A marriage certificate will be needed and also photos of the wedding ceremony and honeymoon. And also to prove ur marriage is genuine you also have to provide proof that you have known your husband since before you were selected. They may ask you and your husband questions separately to confirm this.
.
Goodluck at the interview
 
Hello everyone.

I am winner of Gc 2011 and my interviewee have been scheduled on May, I need to get some information from you, When I applied on GC i was single but I have married and I have still returned my documents as a single why i did that because my Husband is living in another country, and he cannot come where i stay now

Let me try and understand. You were not married when you entered the lottery, so you said you were Single on the Electronic application form. You then got married. You sent your DS-230 and your DSP-122 forms indicating that you were still single. You did this because your spouse is in another country.

If I understood this correctly, you misrepresented a material fact; your martial status. That was really silly thing to do. Why did you not reschedule a time and location to where both you and your spouse could attend an interview and complete the DS-230 and DSP-122 forms honestly reflecting the fact that you have since gotten married? There is nothing wrong with doing that, not everyone can make their appointments so rescheduling is the proper thing to do.

what your advise towards this..would i tell the truth during my interviewee and present all the evidence that i have married...or i just wait it till i get the visa then when i go in USA what kind of chances do my husband have to apply for him visa....thanks for your prompt attention

If you proceed to continue with the lie that you are single, and you somehow get the visa by misrepresenting your status you will not be able to file for your spouse. This because your marriage certificate will pre-date the time when you stated under oath to the CO that you were single. You will be caught out and have your visa revoked.

Code:
According to Sec. 212(a)(6)(i) of the United States Immigration and Nationality Act[8 U.S.C. 1182], misrepresentation is defined as:
"In general - Any alien who, by fraud or willfully misrepresenting a material fact, seeks to procure (or has [B]sought to procure[/B] or [B]has procured[/B]) a visa, other documentation, or admission into the United States or other benefit provided under this Act is inadmissible."

You should always tell the truth, you are under oath to do so. You will be asked to sign the forms you sent and affirm their truthfulness.

You should immediately contact the Embassy responsible and re-schedule your appointment to a day when both you and your spouse can attend the interview. You should prepare yourself to be questioned over the legitimacy of your marriage. Do not, under any circumstances, lie.
