DV 2015 Winners Meet Here

These are context sensitive - i.e. depends about what form you are taking the terms from.

1. Someone who is to benefit - for example the selectee if it is the I134
2. The person making the petition.
3. A promise to provide support (legally binding for the I864, not binding for the I134)
4. Changing from a one type of visa to another whilst in the USA (so H1 to LPR for example)
5. In family based immigration that would be the family member who is applying for you - DV cases do not have a sponsor.

For DV cases you can ONLY use the I134. By not legally binding I mean that the person completing the I134 cannot be forced to support the beneficiary either by the US government - whereas the other version can be enforced.

Not a good idea to carry large amounts of cash. Anything more than $2/3k could be considered suspicious. Amounts of over $10k are certainly going to draw more attention. Plus - getting dollars abroad will cost you a lot of money in currency exchange fees...

The affidavit of support ordinarily should't be issued more than 6 months before your interview and it has to be based on the current version of the poverty guideline as at the time of the interview (regardles of wether it was issued within the past 6 months or not).

  • The affidavit of support (AOS) must be submitted within six months of its signature by the supporting relative; however, it remains valid indefinitely. However, because the AOS is based on the Federal Poverty Guidelines in effect at the time of the visa issuance, it may need to be updated.

You have a habit of posting in CAPS, please stop using CAPS to post. It's bad netiquette, it's more or less like shouting/screaming in real life. And I don't think you carry on normal conversation with people by screaming, right?

What precisely do you mean by his family found his name on the winners' list? There's no such thing as a winners' list. Or are you refering to a list put together by some agent that put in the application on his behalf?

Anyway to answer your question, how is your friend entering his DOB? Is he putting it in the right order such as Day/Month/Year? Does your friend have the selectee notification letter with him? If he has, he should be able to see his DOB as used on the eDV application and use it accordingly.

I don't think the second answer will cause you any issue.

Regarding the name. "Lolita" was a book about an inappropriate relationship between a middle aged man and a young girl. The book was later made in to a couple of films and the name is now shorthand for a young sexually active girl. Adding "4u" on that name seems suggestive to say the least.

I thought exactly the same thing.

Do we have to give our employment history for the last 10 years or complete employment history on DS-260 ? Any idea ??

I don't think you can get through the form without either confirming that you haven't worked or, if you have, completing your work history for ten years.

So yes, if you have worked, you need to include it.

ok, no more use caps, here it is when he checked his status on entrant status site with his confirmation no , got notification telling that he has randomly selected with the specific case no afxxxx6xxx, and when he started to online form after he gave his case no the second thing requires birth date, and he couldn't remember the date and months , he put when he fills the dv program, when he put the date , birth and year what he has on his passport it did not go right, that is where he stacked to proceed further.
 
So he can't get past the log-on page?

When you enter the date of birth, you put in the day (numerical), month (first three letters) and then the year (numerical). He should be able to remember his birth date!

Well, this could be a problem for him. It raises a huge red flag when somebody gets their own date of birth wrong on the entry as it is a signal at an attempted fraudulent entry. "Carelessness" is a sorry excuse for something like getting your own birthdate wrong, especially as I seem to recall you get a chance to review all the info before you submit. And then he has a bigger problem in that seeing as his entry birth date is apparently different from his actual birth date, it will differ from all documents (birth certificate, passport etc), so he may not be able to prove he is the entrant...

KCC may not help. They may not even have his details yet as the 260 is their starting point.

If your friend thinks he put the wrong date he should try these things.
Reverse the month and day. So if his birthday is 11 July try 11 Jul and also try 07NOV

If he thinks he got the year and month correct, try every date in that month.
