DV 2020 All Selectees

Someone must go to the Guyana embassy for his interview? Cubans have to go there. Bc the American embassy is closed
 
I’m nervous and excited. My case Number is less than 150 so I’m crossing my fingers!!

Let me help with the nerves. *coughs* I predict (for fun) your interview will be 1st Nov 2019. Breathe in. Breathe out. Hope all your documents are coming along well. I wish you the very best.

My documents were submitted and processed in late July. I’ll be going to the US for Christmas and I’m not sure if this DV process will affect that since my filing of the DS260 form signals immigrant intent.

You never know. You may go this Christnas with your DV visa instead of the visitor one. Your number seems to get interviews in November mostly. Let's wait for the visa bulletin so don't worry much about the December travels yet. I know someone who was still able to use their student visa(they already had one and were home for the holidays) even after submitting their documents.

If you already have the visitor visa, it's a different case all together. If you don't have it, I think that's where denials come in due to intent. Your number though, honestly, I see you going this Christmas with a Dv visa (keeping the faith for you).

I visited the US after submitting my DS form, it’s generally not a problem - just ensure you have proof of return. I concur that you may well even have your DV visa by then.

Thanks so much for your input! Feeling much more relieved now that you have assured me

I agree with the others, chances are you would have already had your interview by then and your trip will be an activation one.

If in the event that doesnt happen, don't stress too much - I made countless visits after submitting my DS-260 and wasnt questioned about it ever
 
Hello,
Has anyone subscribed to the Department of State’s E-mail subscription list for Visa Bulletin?
I put message 'Subscribe Visa-Bulletin' in the body of my email with a blank subject but I have not been subscribed to it since I didn't get the visa bulletin for last month even if I had sent the email on June 1st.

I suppose that every South American who does not have a US embassy in his country as long as it is the one closest to him. Im cuban too so..

Back in the day when I subscribed it was very inconsistent.
 
Hi everyone, I am applying from Japan!

I have a question. I talked to a company locally and they cautioned me about submitting my Ds-260 too early. They said I should wait until the end of the year to submit it. My case number is AS59** and I submitted the DS-260 in early July. I haven’t got a request yet from KCC about the supporting documents before the interview but from other posters here it seems like I should get a request within the next month or two considering my number is pretty low.

Is there any reason I should have waited to submit my Ds-260? Assuming there weren’t any errors I need to correct. I haven’t seen anything else that said you should wait so long to submit the DS-260.

Thank so much.

Ask KCC about your status. Maybe you need to wait. You sent ds-260 on time.
 
Guys, does anyone know, what's up with that new law that allows federal officials to deny green cards to legal immigrants who have received certain public benefits or who are deemed likely to do so in the future? What does it mean for the winners dv2020? I understand that now speaking English is crucial and the more money you have the more chances you have to go through the interview. But what else? I have seen on the Internet, that from now on the selectees will have not only to report their work experience, but also show tax declaration. But I can't find any official information on that.

And moreover. In the news it's said that those who used medical aid, food stamps and so on are likely to be denied in visa. How can somebody use American public charge with no official status in the US and being outside of US? Does it mean that if one used some help from the government of their own country, they are deemed likely to receive public benefits in the future in the US?
