DV 2020 All Selectees

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.

Yes, I know that last days many people have received the email about processed documents , but today no one yet.
Even on a group with 700 people where I am, no one received nothing today. And I saw that kcc processed documents firsts hours of their work time.. so I am asking, maybe and surely I’m wrong! Hope you will receive it today

It is still 10 am there (US time), i am as eager as u to get any news.
I hope to hear that you and everyone else waiting confirmation gets the long waited email.

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.

First, I was responding to a statement about interviews specifically, not reopening. I did mention with “current information“. Don’t you think it makes sense for the embasssies themselves to also wait and see if the ban is extended or not before they can announce when they will resume visa issuance?

Take it easy Sophie, I know you are stressed like all of us As @Ahmad_AS said it is early in the morning, they also might not send anything today, it does not mean they stopped as they can send many tomorrow. You never know what rules they are following

Yess, sorry guys.
I’ve also read previous comments about embassies that are canceling again appointments and this make me feel really exhausted.
Hoping in good news

Yes it is a very good news. I think all will depend on what will happen on/after June 23rd, probably DoS is waiting to see if the EO is going to be extended or not to give the embassies the right instructions about oppenning

What are these embassies? The only one I heard about is Georgia, they cancelled the rescheduled interviews but they kept the ones on the last week of June and July 1st. It makes sense to me as the EO ends on the 23rd

Georgia too!

Agreed with you all, my country’s situation is very stable. Everything is open except internet/game cafes and the embassy. I am really frustrated.

That's exactly same as my country. But we don't have domestic covid 19 infections. Where are you from?

@Ellen 94,

Please stop reposting the same information over and over on the thread. This constitutes spamming, that is why your last post was deleted.

Well the ban only affects a part of all visa processing, seeing in person interviews being scheduled for citizens this month, there’s no reason to not have visa interviews in the coming months. Given the ban expires in two weeks and with in person visits possible we should see some 2NLs for interviews in August. If this does not happen I feel like DoS is unreasonably delaying Visa processing.

If i may ask , who is supposed to participate in this? Is it relevant for DV applicants?

So it makes sense for them to schedule first, out of all the backlogged visa interviews, those visas not subject to the ban (like most IR/CR categories) so that they don’t waste embassy time on interviews for visas which may not end up being able to be issued, and wait until they know for sure they can issue the latter before scheduling those. Yes? You seem pretty certain the ban won’t be extended, but no-one knows that for sure yet, including the embassies.

Trying to stay positive with the current situation I think his concern should be to fix the country rather than focusing on external things right now as immigration. But again it’s trump so who knows.

His concern is getting re-elected and he will do what he thinks will get him votes.

His concern is getting re-elected and he will do what he thinks will get him votes.

“Fixing” is also subjective as far as politics go. What may seem unfair for others, makes sense to some.

I heard about the cancelled rescheduled interviews in Georgia but I didn't know that some of them are still scheduled, that's good to know
The EO ends in June 23rd, I think that's why end of June interviews were not cancelled

They cancelled one interview which was scheduled for 1st of July
