DV 2020 All Selectees

Hello DV 2020 winners I see there is a lot of banic our there about process so let’s take breath and remember no one is selected by his intelligence it allah and your faith is been written already who is getting through so keep believing and I understand you all your frustrations I do as I was been through that me my self was one of the dv 2020 winners and I get my visa in January and arrived in the state early march before the pendamic start.
Keep believing and hope the best it is already written who is getting through or not.
I Hope you all get though and best of the luck.
Thank you!!
 
As we are all waiting to see,lets pray that these three conditions will be met.
1Trump does not extend the baby 2 Borders are opened in your country 3 The Embassy feels that the covid-19 situation is really under control .
If these condition are not met ,it will be difficult getting an interview schedule.
 
Yep, June is very important, I hope the EO will not be extended and the embassies resume their work
the thing is that some embassies already have in person interview appointments starting June 15th for citizens. if this closure is completely due to a health risk I don’t see why they can’t resume consular processing for visas maintaining social distancing. so there must be something else that’s holding them back on starting with visa interviews. My embassy mentioned the “travel ban” as a reason. Also another 2 weeks and we know If the immigration ban will be extended or not.
 
When I won the dv2020 lottery,people that won previously and are in USA kept saying that it is very certain to get the visa,unless you have criminal background or the world “ends”or some apocalyps happens ,and we laughed since that was nonsense thought,and guess what happens next:apocalyps,pandemics,the world shuts down like never before in the history,and we get burned I think we the winners of DV2020 are more affected by this pandemics after the victims,I mean i wouldnt care if I woukd lose my job as long as I would have my visa and being in USA because refinding a job would be depend on me on my self,not like this situation where you wait like a stupid from the news on the world and the world decides for you,All the other categories of visas in the world have a delays of 3-4 months because of pandemics ,who cares thats not important ,and we are the only ones that get burn,what a cruel world we live in.

It doesn’t make sense for them to start having interviews before the 23 June, on current information. (Yes I know some people think they should anyway, but clearly they don’t.)

Yes,its not the end of the world if they start working on 23 june,but shouldnt they announce before the opening ,like the other embassies 2-3 weeks before they announced the opening date,not hearing nothing from US embassies is an indicator that the waiting can last indefinitely.
 
Starting from today we will have some signs of what might be the outcome to many of us . Like if at least we see some embassies making some rescheduling appointments , or KCC starts sending 2nls or even seing many confirmation emails being sent . Any move can be good , and hope the EO won't be extended .
 
In Taiwan, 443 cases and 7 deaths among 23m people, the embassy is still closed and only processing emergency visa applications, e.g, f1.
 
Wait. I thought Trump stopped issuing immigrant visa till June 30th. If Trump extend this ban there is no point to get interviews? Correct me if i'm wrong.
 
I tweeted the Department of State yesterday to ask when embassies will be opening again for DV2020 winners. This is the response I got:

A few days ago I have contacted the Sri Lankan embassy about to know when it will be open for remaining interviews. their answer was they will be remains closed until DoS will give them instructions to re-open. This tweet and reply I got from the embassy are saying two different things. Our country pandemic situation is now under control by the authorities and the last COVID-19 case reported from outside is more than a month ago. (all the cases now reported from quarantine centers) This will not about the pandemic, maybe they wanted to see the next step that the president will take.

Conducting interviews and put them on AP will waste the money that the winners spend on medicals and interview fees if the EO will be extended furthermore. That was another possible scenario. comments are welcome.

I don’t think its true, as until Friday people were receiving confirmations and the last couple of days was the weekend, lets except something from today until this Friday.
