Hello
I am a dv 2020 winner from AF region and I have one question? On all of my Dv required documents l use my grandfather’s name us NIGUSIE but on my high school diploma it was incorrect, and it has one spelling error; it is NIGUSSIE. So does this lead to rejection? Should I have to correct the document?
Thank you

Almost certainly won’t be a problem but if you can correct the diploma, then do so for peace of mind.

No problem, this year’s returns are only due april 15 so it’s normal at this stage to only have prior year.
 
Hi, DV hopeful here. There is something I'm curious about and hope to get some insight on.

With the numerous countries subjected to the travel ban in Asia, the number of eligible selectees probably dropped by 4-5k since some of the affected countries take up a huge portion of selectees in Asia. Historically, Asia will get about 15k selectees each draw with about 10k visas available. With the ban, does this mean selectees in the Asia region will have a higher chance of going current and receiving a visa if they satisfies the minimum requirements?

Logically, this would be the case but I'm just not sure if it makes sense with the DV lottery because there is so much randomness and lucky involved.

Yes.

1. Would like to know more about i-134...does the sponsor need to fill the form for each of all selectees because we are 3

2. What are the criteria for the sponsor to be eligible to fill it

3. The i-134 need to be an original document during visa interview or a copy scanned is also allowed
 
What a relief! Visa issued today for us. I have flight back this Friday evening . Hopefully they will make passports available today tomorrow or at least Friday before 3 PM. May have to pick up passport on the way to airport on Friday ;)
Back to good ol' USA as LPR. Thank you this forum and the moderators . You all make this DV process real easy, Good luck to all 2020 Selectees .

Hello fellow winners, a quick one. My my sponsor location is also where i stated that Green cards will be going ( Missouri). However another friend offered to house us for sometime in Seattle and that is where i want to go. I wanted to know after the VISA is issued can we move straight to Seattle and process our green cards from there or we have to first go to Missouri?

I will help on question 1 and 3. According to Britsimon. You only need one Copy for all of you, Their is a part for beneficiary which includes Principal applicant's name, Spouse and two children. The rest of the children are filled in a space at the back of the form.

On qtn 3. They just have to scan and send you by email no need for original copy.
