DV 2018 All Selectees

Thank you so much man i appreciate it btw one more question that i have i mentioned a name at the Name of person currently living at address at the Permanent Address but he doesnt live there any more should i change it at the person who is living there currently, cuz the name i mentioned used to live there but moved.

Is this person your host? Is this the place you plan on arriving at? Are you still able to receive mail at this address even though the person you know is no longer residing at this address?

No he is not i will be arriving there yeah i will be able to get green card from there i placed his name he is my aunt's son but my aunt and her husband are currently living there and not him and i thought that might be a problem.

That's not a problem in that case, no need to unlock the DS260 form for that.
 
Can someone please tell me what this means in DS 260 exemplar form to be exact on page 2,
before starting the form, applicants should gather the documents the applicants must submit. Because they are needed to complete the DS 260 form.

You'll need the information in them to complete the form.
 
When I go to check my DS260 my given names are in a different order on the first page than in my DS260 application.
My name is in the correct order according to my passport in the DS260 but perhaps not in my initial application for the lottery.

Do I need to worry?
 
Like Simon said, that's not a big deal. But if it's bothering you and you want to put your mind at rest, contact KCC to unlock your DS260 and make the correction.
Can you also unlock the DS-260 to submit new applicants like spouse or kids? (e.g. if you got married or had kids after subimiting the ds-260)
 
Question about sponsor;
I would like to put my cousin as a sponsor and she is single and has a good job. However, she was for some time unemployed last year and had to be in assistance. Does this cause any issue with her being my sponsor or I should look for someone that haven't been in social assistance ?
 
Hello everyone,

First of all thank you all for this valueable information.

Me and my girlfriend participating in DV lottery for 3 years and now she got selected for futher proccessing and I am not. Her CN 2018EU26xxx, so after reading this all this thread I think it's safe number for her be invited to interview?

Another question:

When she filled application form she put her first name instead of her last name and same for last name.

X- First name (Y- filled in form)
Y- Last name (X- filled in form)

Before the selection we were engaged and now we already married, so we are ready to fill DS-260 with correct names and last names just like in our passports.
After our marriage she obtained "extra" last name like new one. In her passport willl be written X (first name) Y-Z (last name - husbands last name).

Still I have a doubts about that would it be better to inform KCC by email letter about this situation? That she made this mistake in first DV lottery application form?


Immediately, I thank you for your answers ! :)
 
Should i unlock Ds-260 for that ?

If you didn't fill it in I think you should. You can't expect KCC to know all university abbreviations around the world, especially when different colleges may have the same abbreviation.
 
Hello,

Will someone be able to respond to my question,@Britsimon: do you have any idea how the below situation about the sponsor should affect the application

2.And about the course of study what should i type for High school ? should i type Academic or type High school

This Thread has been created for all DV 2018 Selectees to use in sharing the good news about their selection and to potentially ask questions about processing.

So let me be the first to say congratulations on your selection and best of luck with the processing!
Hello everyone
I was selected for South America with a 16xx, should I consider the number too high? Also should I submit the DS 260 or wait for October or even next year?
Is there a difference submitting today?
Thanks
Magnum

There is no need to rush to submit. You could wait until next year to submit, although you would have to submit early enough to be processed in the event you do get current. As for whether that number will make it or not, it is too early to be sure.

So submitting now or in January does not make a difference
This year my number got current in may
