DV 2020 All Selectees

Unfortunately, knowing the guy in charge and also reading some articles about the order, it's not unreasonable to think that Trump would extend this order far beyond the 60 days period, for as much as he can. So unless this is not challenged at court, I'm not too optimistic...

"Trump’s 'temporary suspension' of permanent legal immigration opportunities – likely to be extended indefinitely by subsequent executive orders – certainly will be challenged in the courts. "

Ya you are right but, I think the embassy’s are working to schedule on coming months so, it’s doesn’t affect anyone unless you are planning to move to US on next months.

Even if they will interview, they won't be able to issue the visa and will probably put you on AP, which will expire September 30th. Even it they DO issue the visa, you need to travel to the US withing ~5 months and you can't do that while the order is in place...

Nobody knows it, for sure. It can be extended or ended. Or it can be challenged and stopped for a while. Just need to wait and see. Hopefully they go ahead with confirmation e-mails and interview dates so only thing that we worry about would be this 60-day ban.
 
Someone knows if would be possible to spend 14 days from a restricted list country into a non listed country and attempt entry in the US?...

It seems quite likely it will be challenged, hopefully for example ACLU would take the EO to court. The majority of this EO is about immigrants bringing the Economy down which is totally nonsense. Not sure on which facts this EO stands.

May I know what is your original appointment date?

Some of the people who were scheduled for April originally, received new dates in June.

People who were scheduled for May have not posted anything about rescheduling yet. I'm Georgian and I count on the information people post in FB groups.

Thank you for talking and giving advice regarding those who got the visa set to expire soon! Unfortunately I live in Europe and I can't travel in the U.S I tried to reach a lawyer, but didn't recommend to move 14 days into another country non banned and try to travel from there. The point is the consulate and embassies don't extend the visas, that's I have been told by the consulate in Naples and the US embassy in London. As soon as the visa expire and they're open we have to get a new one...they just said in the email that we have to redo medical check and explain why we couldn't go.
Now who knows if those who got the visa expired somehow are prioritized? Sorry for the others, but I hope so!
 
Could a holder of a diversity immigration visa before the date of the E.O. be denied admission to the United states? From a country that is not banned entry.
