There's no deadline date for submitting the DS260, we however often recommend for Selectees to not wait past Apr/May of the following year - 2018 in your case.

Please go through Simon's blog for guidance on how to fill the DS260 form:
http://britsimonsays.com/completing-the-ds260-for-dv-lottery-entrants/

Visit the website of the embassy where your interview will take place of further guidance with regards to the documents you will be presenting.

Yes, sure. I wanted only to be sure that the vaccinations done or not done could not possibly be an issue in releasing the green card

If your wife gives birth before your interview gets scheduled, you will need to contact KCC and request for them to unlock your DS 260 form (and that if your wife's) - you'll list the baby on both forms and fill out a separate form for the baby too.

If she gives birth after the interview has been scheduled, you'll contact your embassy and they will guide you through on what needs to be done.

Email KCC and request for them to unlock your form. Take a look at your DV Selectee Notification Letter - it has instructions on how to contact KCC.
 
Hi, what about the vaccinations question in the DV-260 form? I´m 32, but in venezuela we usually don´t keep the vaccination record, what should I respond in this question in order to not get affected with the respond?

I also have a 5 years child and he obviously don´t have a complete vaccination record, again, what should I respond in this question in order to not get affected with the respond?
 
Hi DV experts, I am trying to submit my application and every time I get an error message that it is the wrong case number:

"Please correct all areas in error as indicated below. Once you have finished, click ''Sign and Submit Application' to continue.
  • The case number you entered does not match the case number that you entered at Sign In."
For sure it is the same case number that I am using at Sign In, please help.

Don't worry about it, it won't affect anything - you will all get the required vaccinations when you do the Immigrant visa medical.

Are you leaving out all the zeros between the region code and the number? E.g. Just type 2018AF657 not 2018AF0000000657

Your response doesn't really matter, however you can answer 'No' and explain you will have the required vaccinations when you go for your medical before the interview date.

Answer yes or no - it doesn't matter which. Yes is more realistic.

Hi everyone, I am a 2018 DV selectee from Ghana. I'm currently a final year university student graduating in December this year. My high school certificate, however, has a Fail in some of the subjects but passed in Maths and English. Will this result in me being denied a visa?
