DV 2020 All Selectees

Sorry I didn’t explain clearly. I’ve summited it in Jan and asked for unlock in the end of March. I have not resubmitted it since March. Since yesterday VB is became current, I decided to change my interview location to the US. So today I sent a email to KCC and waiting for a response. I can’t change the interview location by myself, should I resubmit it now or wait for their reply then resubmit my form? But I’m afraid of if I resubmit late then I’ll lose the chance of interview.
Thanks!

I understood your questions clearly and I already answered them. Go back and re-read my responses to your first two posts above. I don’t like repeating myself.
 
Dear Moderators,

I have a question related to police certificates, i issued my police certificates and sent all my documents to KCC in November 2019 and i further got the auto-reply message saying that KCC has received my email and currently processing my documents and since then i haven't heard back from them. The police certificates sent at that time had a validity of 3 months only hence they are now expired.

now as my case number becomes current (AS23K), I called KCC last Friday to check whether they are satisfied with the documents i sent back in November 2019 or shall i issue new police certificates and send all documents again, (i was precisely asking what gives me a better chance to process my case faster), they gave me a very vague response that they haven't viewed my documents yet and i shall check with them later.

I am worried that 2NLs might be sent by KCC in the next few days and i doubt that in reality they can view an email which was sent in November 2019 or be satisfied with expired police certificate?

What is your advice, shall i re-issue police certificate and send a new email attaching all Documents again (and risk being in a situation that my documents are sent late) or shall i count on November 2019 email with its expired police cert.?
 
I found this document on AILA, requesting a halt on the immigration ban. Positive news for the DV lottery? Any thoughts?
Unfortunately they only addressed family based GC for children that "may come out of age" and turn 21 and so lose their chance for GC. AILA is asking for a relief only in this matter which will probably cause a change in the EO to exclude those children but won't stop the EO entirely.
 
What about those whose interview have been canceled but updated?
Is there any chance for us?
Looks like you and i were scheduled on the same date at the same Embassy.(2nd April at Accra ) .i figured this out at Britsimon.com but i dont know how to reply there.You can contact me at blerung@yahoo.com for us to figure out how we can reschedule our case if you wish.

It is unlikely you will get your 2NL soon - because of the pandemic, and also what the KCC rep told you - your documents have not been processed. Your old police cert should still be acceptable, but if you want, get a new police cert to provide at the interview.

Hi Walt, do you know what sort of information they are looking for to assist? I am assuming by point number 2 that their request for examples includes DV?

I sent an email but I honestly don't know what good it is going to do, their case is entirely pointed at family based GC for minors and they request a restraining order for only 21 days, which may cause more problem down the road than do any good.

Unless DV counts as part of the second point this is not the relevant forum.

(The first point I would think they should know is not affected by actual visa issuance timing but that’s not relevant to this forum either so I won’t expand)

I would say point 2 is relevant to DV no? Any applicant ,any category, at risk under the immigrant visa ban? I would assume they fight the entire proclamation.

I send an email too, but with my own situation.
 
Just an update, I recieved an email back saying
"Thank you for your email and sharing your story. I am sympathetic to your cause. I have saved your information and will be in touch if I need any further information. Please keep me posted if you receive any further information from the consulate. "

Only left to hope they will indeed take us into consideration

Got the same reply indeed, let’s hope so.

They reply to me something similar as to you.

But I'm thinking about my case. I'm a medical student who are going to take United States medical licence examinations (USMLE) in order to get a licence to work in USA as a doctor (as I'm finishing my medical school in my home country). And on top of that I won dv2020, which would really help me. I'm considering if due to this fact the proclamation shall not apply to me? Or until I don't have licence as a doctor in USA it doesn't matter and I should wait those 60 days? Or maybe I should write to KCC and ask about my case?

Sorry, what did you send them?

Hey Brit, I need your advice.
What do you think about send our application to AILA ‘s litigation? Do you think is a good idea?
 
Yet another legal action against the suspension proclamation here
It also concentrates on potential harm to families, including children who could “age out” of the immigration process due to the April 22nd proclamation with nothing clearly mentioned related to DV lottery Visas.
