DV 2020 All Selectees

I still want to believe the second paragraph of this communication from US Embassy in Fiji
The context has the extension proclamation and an annotated visa
It's not a generic response

didn’t someone say Fiji didn’t annotate any of their visas in the first place?
 
The latest proclamation is an amendment of 10014 and 10052 (which was an amendment of 10014). The wording is very clear and the new PP does not contain the whole text it would need to have to be a complete proclamation because it specifically changes certain sections of the previous proclamations. 10014 has the April 23 date as the effective date and describes the exclusion I mentioned as of that date.

.
This is exactly my interpretation too.

Are you of the opinion of April 23rd or also those visas not annotated in September 2020
Your question is giving a perception of a contradictory opinion to your stance

I know people aren't allowed to travel, but I await official communication. Not of lawyers either:)

Nothing I said is contradictory, Fran. I’m saying fiji seems to have been incorrectly interpreting this all along. Why did they not have annotations but everyone else did? Just because the visas were not annotated doesn’t mean everything is free and clear, CBP can read a visa issue date as well as anyone else can and knows what falls under the ban.
 
These are all the same lawyers (Morrison, AILA) that managed to successfully fight to get DV visas issued in September, and you think they don’t understand immigration law? Ok then, you interpret your way instead. It’s late here, goodnight.
Goodnight my dear
Thanks
 
SusieQQQ. Most people I know who I met on the interview date all have the PP10014 annotation .
Sorry. I went back and found the post I was thinking of, it was someone from Fiji but was not as generalized as I had remembered it being.

Sorry you have had the unfortunate news confirmed, hoping that in just over two weeks it doesn’t matter anymore.

All good SusieQQQ. Let’s just wait and see. We’ve all come this far . Here’s hoping it works out for everyone .
 
Good to have official communication like this
Thanks @Jaykayel1986
Yes indeed . The embassy here has been really good with communication and service compared to stories I’ve heard . I am also glad they are not sending auto generated emails . Atleast they had the courtesy to reply personally to me and a few more DV2020 Visa holders I know . Let’s just wait and see now what happens

That's good to hear. Am not sure the embassy here in Ghana would even do that because you sending them email about your case during this time irritates them especially DV2020 people who send them emails.
