It wouldn’t make sense to wait for the new fiscal year considering the documents process has to be completed before they can schedule interviews, and interview notices are usually sent out 2 months in advance. If they waited till the new fiscal year to even ask for documents then the first 2-3 months of the fiscal year would have no DV interviews....

Of course they’re not going to wait until the new FY, Oct 1st, before requesting for the required additional documents. How will they be able to schedule Oct. interview appoints if they have to wait until the new FY starts?

Hi all, first time lottery player and winner. EU12XXX
Looking forward to this process. Have already started collecting all my docs, as the country I am playing for, Italy, is notoriously slow with with paperwork!
Does anyone know how important their vaccination record is?
This is stuff I did over 30 years ago!

Don’t sweat the vaccination record if you no longer have it. Your medical exam will cover what is needed.
I'm in the same process....you can mention that prior to / in the medical exam you will obtain all vaccination records. For some missing records you can do an immune test, for some such as Tetanus you may need a proof that you had a booster in the past 10 years (or get a shot). It may all depend on the designated doctor who is going to examine you - they will medically clear you for the visa purposes.

or you can not bother to do any of that and just let the panel doctor do it all.
Vaccination records are helpful but if you don’t have them, no big deal, countless adults around the world do not have their childhood records and stil immigrate to the US.
. (The panel doctors all follow the same guidelines so I’m not sure what you mean by it may depend on the designated one?)

I have an apostrophe in my surname and form DS-260 won't let me enter it so I put a space instead. So for example "O'Reilly" turns into "O Reilly". Now on my selection letter the apostrophe is in there. I was considering entering the name with the apostrophe in the native script section but it's still english so that's not really ideal. Does it suffice to tell them at the interview to include the apostrophe on the green card? Thanks.
I sent the unlock request on 10th of June and I received an email that it was unlocked on the 15th
I think KCC's response time is around 2~3 working days.
I sent inquiry emails to KCC on Jun 6th and Jun 11th and got replies on Jun 9th and Jun 15th, respectively.
The most recent email I sent was an inquiry on how to change an answer in DS-260 (hoping them to unlock my form but without mentioning the word "unlock" explicitly). They replied that I could request them to unlock the form with reasons. I have learned a lesson to be specific if I want them to act on unlocking my form.

Helloo Everyone
My wife has been selected for this year , there something keeps me worry because she gave birth in US on Visitor visa , Is that a valid reason to refuse her green card visa from CO during her interview .
Thanks & Good luck for all .

I am the principal applicant in the DV lottery visa 2020. I made an error when writing my spouse name in the D lottery visa . I put family name instead of first name and name instead of family name. Will this disqualify me since I am selected for further processing...
Thank you

Hi all,
On the online DS-260 form, there's a question about previous addresses. Does this include address while living abroad?
I worked and studied abroad for more than a year. Do I need to include them?

You can mention that during your interview.

I hope you paid all your bills and have evidence of the payment? If the CO makes the determination that she used public benefits which she’s not entitled to during the process, they may refuse the visa on public charge grounds.

No, it will not. Just be sure to correctly list the names on the DS260 forms (both yours and your spouse’s).

Thank you very much...
Another issue.... In the country where I am a national of only year of birth mentioned in my passport as of all other official documents no date or month mentioned , so I wrote in the DV entreat January first and the year as mentioned in the passport as I do for travel tickets and wherever required. However, on the birth certificate in the country where I was born,which is different from the country I am a national of, the same year mentioned and also the day and month indicated which is not January first.
Kindly advise what to write on the DS 260 form for the date and moth of birth .
Thank you for your assistance

As above - having a baby in the US is not in itself illegal, but any misrepresentation about that and any unpaid bills will be problems. As long as none of that happened you should be fine.

DV eligibility is based on country of birth, not the country you’re a national of. You have a b/c issued by your country of birth with your date of birth fully listed, follow that.
