DV 2020 Sri Lankan Winners

Generally for DV: there are many instances when school certificates don't have exact names, it usually isn't a problem as it is not an official identification document (DV entry, passport, birth certificate must match which looks like they do for you), as long as they can see it is you. If you can get an affidavit as well for peace of mind that's good too, but from what you have above it doesn't look like it will be a problem.

Yes, PP, BC & DV info match
& they contain correct info.
Thanks again.
This thread is priceless!!!
 
2020AS7XXX - Visa Approved!!!

I was successful at the interview and visa approved! Everything went smoothly, way better than I had expected. The interview lasted for about 5-10 minutes. Consular Officer was very friendly and asked some questions about me, my family, education, work and sponsor. Finally, he congratulated me and gave a fist bump! :D I was given a yellow paper to collect the passport with visa and original documents in a week’s time. Although the lead-up to the interview from 1NL was so stressful, the interview itself was a pleasant experience.

I think the key to my success was being so careful not to have even a single mistake in the e-DV, DS-260 and the documents, following instructions to the point and most importantly being 100% honest throughout the process.

I’m eternally grateful to @Britsimon for the amazing blog he has developed over the years and the advises he gives on this forum, @SusieQQQ, and @Aidyn for their daily replies full of important information and @Sm1smom for keeping this forum sane. I went through every post on DV 2020 All Selectees thread every day, several times a day and that helped me immensely.

I must also thank @janzz2018 for creating this home for Sri Lankan winners and I thank all the active participants. Because of you guys, I never felt alone in this process. Thank you so much and wish you all the success!

I’m still writing my long story from where it all started and will post it (including what will happen at the POE) on BritSimon’s blog soon after entering my dream country, the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Signing off… King Atlan


Congratulations & wish you all the best!
May all your dreams come true...
 
@Atlan, Congratulations to you and your family.

Dear All,
I have a bit annoying problem. currently, I'm working in Colombo and my home was in Dambulla and residing from there since age of 16. but when I'm trying to add my other residence (rented annex with few of my friends) I couldn't add it in DS260 or police clearance certificate due to the time overlap it gives me validation error all the time. what should i do? is it can be a problem not include the annex address?

Thank You.

I will be very grateful if somebody can help me to solve this issue
 
Thanks for the respond @SusieQQQ

Yeah. but the problem is I have no legal bond to the annex (just living for 4-5 years now for work and my friend owned it). but every weekend I live in my home (live in from age of 16). it is the residence location which listed on all my identification card, police clearance certificate, driving license, etc.

I'm struggling about is it can be a negative effect on my case. because it's may be not my fault I tried to enter all the residencies.

Thanks

Stop overthinking it - where do you "live" where is your mail sent? Just list one and move on
 
Hi,
I'm 2020AS00018xxx from Sri Lanka.
When submitting docs such as birth certificates, since there are 2 sides I named them as follows & sent them as two separate attachments.

CN_first name_last name_birth_certificate_front.pdf

CN_first name_last name_birth_certificate_back.pdf

Can someone please tell me whether it is correct? Will it be a problem?
I sent docs on 6th Jan'20 but still didn't get the confirmation.
Should I write KCC & ask whether they are satisfied with my docs?
Thanks so much

I scanned multi-page documents into a single PDF but you should be ok I guess. You can ask KCC whether they are satisfied with the documents. Refer http://britsimonsays.com/document-procedure-modification/ for more information.


@Atlan What you mean by "Photo ID"?

And "1040" ☝here?

1040: US Individual Income Tax Return (most recent copy)
Photo ID: An identification card like a Drivers License
