DV 2020 All Selectees

My concern is also with fees . If I may ask , why does it have to be that much , 1000$ is a huge amount of money for many if us that work so hard to make a living and save some money . There are many people who want to join the case but can't because of the fees being big .
Why , for example wouldn't be something in a range of 500$ per case ( regardless of a single case or with derivatives ) . Like it's better to have 100 people paying 500 than 20 or 30 people paying 1000 . I understand that's part of your job and you need to make a living , but can you please explain why does it have to be this expensive ?
Thank you

its just bs, they can schedule passport interviews but no visa interviews due to COVID. They’re not straightforward and hold information behind for the real reason of the stand still and hide behind covid.
Yesterday’s posts about the Phase 1, Phase 2 as what I can find online has to do with passport interviews.

They always have and always will prioritize citizens over others. They have always made that clear. Even the original shutdown notice https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/News/visas-news/suspension-of-routine-visa-services.html ended with noting services to citizens will continue to be available. You’d expect the same from your country’s embassy.

I know and that makes sense, but i mean that it seems like everytime someone asks a question they mention due to covid this and that rather than giving the exact reason or what to expect, because by now one may assume there’s at least a plan set up for resuming visa services.

I think you’re expecting too much if you think you're going to get anything other than a formula answer tbh...

@curtisatlaw If we can negotiate a bit or bear a large portion (500USD initial, 1500USD final) pay when the case is approved. more people will be engage with the lawsuit. Please consider this Mr. Curtis
 
My optimistic theory is that they'll send out a lot of confirmation numbers just after the ban expires. Maybe they're holding back because they're instructed or don't want to show they're working towards immigration during the time of the ban.
Doesn't make sense for them to have this much time without sending out confirmation numbers

Will the ban be extended? Any hint from any sources? As new restrictions are added or we just wait for the coming weekend

I didn't see anything, US is planning to open embassies in phases. That's all what I know so far
