alemtesfaye711@yahoo.com let's talk soon.
 
There are now only two weeks left until DV-2016 will expire on September 30th - an IV decision has to be made by that date, actual printing of the visa may occur after that. I therefore would encourage anyone still on AP to proactively get in touch with the IV Section of your US Consulate, to see whether there is any way your DV case can be brought to a successful conclusion. Of course such last minute attempts will not always bear fruit, due to factors outside of the Consulate's control, but there certainly is no harm in trying hard from your side one last time. Very best of luck!

I would agree. However, one thing to add is that if the medical is over or close to 6 months old it is useless and would need to be replaced before a visa could be approved. Personally I would contact the physicians (prior to contacting the embassy) simply to check how quickly a new report could be produced. That is then something to mention to the embassy to clear that as an objection.

As I concluded from ur post , the best way is to contact or email the embassy ?

This depends on the US Consulate you interviewed with. In our case the way to get hold of IV Section personnel was by e-mail to their dedicated departmental consulate IV address. They reliably responded to our queries and were helpful and forthcoming with information. Other Consulates might answer phone calls. I would say whatever works, you don't have much options left, I am afraid. Very best of luck! PS: you might personally be in a better situation than others on AP, as you have received proactive communication from the Consulate previously. They know how to reach you, at least.

This timeline does not represent a problem - as long as the visa will be issued in the Consulate system by September 30th you are all good. Physical printing etc. may take place after that date without a problem. What is the expiration date of your medicals?
