I think they are asking about SELECTEES not issuances. And the selectees data is all over this place. For dv2019 I think they were about 87600. selectees or so

Thank you, I'll have a look at this data.

Yes, you understood me.

This year there are about 84K seletees, which is less than in 2019. This information somehow comforts me :D I am so nervous about my high number.

Yes, but curious as to why you would if you already have an interview scheduled? The only issue from now would be a disqualification, are you worried about that?

You mean a disqualification at the scheduled interview?
I had a scheduled interview and I applied for the DV2021 because technically I still don’t know if I will get it or not, as it’s up to th counselor.
Will that disqualify me at the interview?

No, entering again won’t disqualify you, again, I was just trying to understand why you are worried about the interview.

DV2018 115,968
DV2019 87,610
DV2020 83,884.
It's important to note that only about half of those selectees will get visas as there are only 55K available.
 
For some reason the website won't let me register. Anyone else having issues? Any ideas on when it'll be fixed (if at all)?

Have your details and go through the entry in a flash
I have applied for 4 people today
If you delay on a page then it goes (IP address not found)
Your speed determines your success especially with the heavy traffic today
8 hours to go so don't wait for any fixing. The page is just fine

I just applied (10 minutes ago) for a friend on Chrome browser and it went through with no issues at all. Took me about 5 minutes to complete.

This is an important step in everyone's life, I think it's understandable to feel worried even if I might not have problems at the interview.
I try to consider every possible ending from now on, yep I'm still overthinking lol

Thank you for your answer Susie!

Ok to spell it out... if you have a legitimate reason (rather than just general nerves) for worry about disqualification at the interview, it is likely to still be a disqualifying factor if you are refused this time and get selected again. In that sense entering again is pointless too. Anyway, I’m sure you will be fine at your interview, do update us after!

Sure, I will update you, I'm also writing down the timeline of every step I did in the process.
 
Hello
I am selected case no AS24XX and i was so confused and worried for knowing the requirements but since if found Britsimon website he helped me alot to know all the process and most of my worries been clarified, today just find this forum and i would like share some of my questions to get further opinions and advices, So please i need your advices for the following doubts:
1- I have not submitted yet my DS260. Planing to submit it on december this year then accordingly i shall wait for the KCC email to submit document Or i have to send document directly after submitting my DS considering that i have received a general email from Kcc stating that i was selected and i should complete my DS and submit my documents.
2- Till date i am industrial project and maintenance manager for more than 14 years , i am holding a technical vocational Diploma which is equivalent to High School Diploma as per WES US evaluation report, there will be a chance they will accept my technical vocational diploma WES evaluation for HS equivalence or i should proceed with work experience?? Should take both for the interview??
3- In case i go with work experience option , I did not find my exact job title in Onet so shall i select the nearest job title.
4- During years of experience i have obtained many training and course certificates some of these are from university and international award organization shall i mention these certificates on my DS260 or just i have to take with me for the interview?

Thanks

1. You can submit in Dec, is there a reason you want to wait? If you have stated your case number correctly you are already current.
2. I would go with work experience, as the DV guidelines do not accept vocational diplomas. Submit your diploma too, but make the work experience application as good as you can get it to be. I presume you have checked that your job title/work experience are at the appropriate level to qualify for DV.
3. Yes, but make sure you can show how the duties you do in your job align to those described in the one you choose.
4. Unless they are actual degrees, which it does not sound like, I would just take copies to the interview as part of the work experience/training package.
