DV 2020 All Selectees

Trump's EO only said ban of issuing immigration visa not ban of interview

So what is the point of having the interview if they can't issue a visa?

workload management for the embassy, and having visas issued as soon as the ban is lifted for the applicant (rather than still waiting for a schedule and then probably bottlenecked interviews) . No indication yet of whether embassies will actually do this, of course,

I hope that will be the case. We were scheduled for the interview on April 6th. But now I'm freaking out that we won't be interviewed by the end of FY.

The proclamation does not restrict issuance of visas. It only restricts entry into the United States for 60 days of persons now outside the U.S. who are holders of immigrant (permanent residence) visas issued after 4/23/2020 and who are beneficiaries of only certain: (1) Employment-Based and (2) Family-Based sponsorship and (3) winners of the Diversity Lottery. It does not restrict entry of holders of nonimmigrants (temporary)

Oh wow, it really did happen! But I feel like I’ve read before that the issuance of the visas and the allocation of interview appointments should still go case by case. Reading that visa numbers are irrelevant now confuses me a bit. But I hope that the ones that really want to proceed get their visa! I’m keeping my fingers crossed

thats promising ... I’d also note that this appointment is for after the 60 days of the EO expires. Do you know if any have been scheduled for before 23 June?

I see it's schedule after the 60 days ban. (ends on June 22nd). Maybe they are scheduling the interviews now for after the day when the ban ends?

 

[DV2020EU44]

now I wonder if they start sending emails about documents being processed.

 

[DV2020EU44]

Georgia is the country with one of the biggest number of selectees in EU region. I hope the embassy will deal with the workload.
