DV 2021 ALL SELECTEES

I am filling DS260 for CP and have a few questions.
I have a U.S. citizen child who was born after filing for the DV lottery, so he does not appear in the system and as he is a U.S. citizen I will not add him as an applicant. However, in the family section of DS260, I still think to add him(should I do so?).
If yes, how should I respond to the two following questions inside DS260?

1. Is this child immigrating to the U.S. with you?
2. Is this child immigrating to the U.S. at a later date to join you?

I am on an F1 visa and previously had B1/B2 visa. Should I answer NO to the following qustion

3. Were you issued an Alien Registration Number by the Department of Homeland Security?

US citizen children do not need to immigrate so No to 1 and 2.

3 is probably no unless you had a CPT or OPT EAD
 
Thank you. One more question on DS260.
I currently have SSN as an F1 student, however, I am not sure if I need a new card issue because the current one might be temporary.
How should I answer the following question?

1. Do you need a new card issued?
 
One last question on DS260. What does it mean "reimbursing the school" in the below question? Do they refer to book/supplies fees?

Have you attended a public elementary school or a public secondary school on student (F) status after November 30, 1996 without reimbursing the school?

Are or were you a high school student or a university student?

I am a University student. My dependent is an elementary public school student with an F2 visa. We have paid books/supplies fees. I am not aware of any other fee and want to make sure there are not any.

The restriction referred to is only for someone using an F1 to study at a public elementary or high school so not applicable to your dependent.

The current card is not temporary, but it has DHS restrictions on it. So go ahead and answer YES for a new card to be issued.
 
Hi I unlocked DS260 to add information on my previous job that wasn't in my county, and I enter all the info about that job save it and submit it. But I didn't enter on "my previous addresses" the address where i was living during that time i was there (2 and a half months).
Is that a mistake, do i have to unlock it again and add those informations?

Thank
 
Hey guys,

On the very last screen "Sign and Submit", they are asking for the passport number.

I am filling out the application for my entire family. Are they asking for MY passport number for each of the DS-260 or each applicant's passport number? For example when I am filling out my son's ds-260, do I enter my passport number or his? It's a little confusing since my kids are just toddlers and obviously can't sign or submit anything.

Thanks!

Each DS260 Needs all the information for the person involved so if it is one of your kids then yes his or her passport numbers as well as all other details. Of course they can’t sign and submit, you as parent are doing it on their behalf, doesn’t change the fact that all relevant information pertains to the family member that the ds260 is being prepared for and not the person submitting for them.

There is also a place to fill the preparer details, on any form that was filled by someone else other than the applicant himself , in your case (by you for your children)
 
Hello everyone,

I submitted my DS260 in mid September 2020. It has been 6 months and I haven't received any instructions from KCC to submit documents yet
I contacted KCC and they told me my form is still being processed. My number will likely become current in June 2021. Can I get some advice on the issue?

@SusieQQQ can you please give me an advice on this?

Thanks
 
Hello everybody, I'd like to know when a case changes status from NVC to in transit.

Let's say in two weeks the may visa-bulletin is published and I see my number will be current in June.
When my case changes from NVC to in transit? In April? In may? in June?
