DV 2021 ALL SELECTEES

I am from Iran and my embassy is Yerevan and it had Scheduled 6 cases per May and June and I am waiting for July 2nl. the highest case number invited is AS1400 and mine is 23XX
10 out of 12 cases are single cases like me.
Would you even recommend me to join the lawsuit?

Yes.
 
Just joined the lawsuit of Kurtis. Just want to confirm if somebody else received same email -I am frustrated mainly about “apologize for inconvenience”.


YOU ARE IN THIS LAWSUIT.

WE APOLOGIZE FOR THIS INCONVENIENCE.

WE ARE WORKING AS FAST AS WE CAN TO GET RETAINERS OUT TO CLIENTS. PLEASE BE PATIENT.

So it means I don’t have to do anything and wait ? Thanks

I think they have been a little bit overwhelmed by the response. It’s closing on the 31st so expect the retainer after that. Although, I thought it was all automated, no? Unless you manually filled out the retainer? In that case I guess they would need to double check it and send it to you. You can automate the process and you then automatically get the signed retainer via a PDF.
 
Thank you very much for the reply. It was a bit strange - I sent them a Western Union receipt, in less than 5 min they sent an email that the whole receipt must be shown. Then I sent again and received this email.
Sorry - a retainer is a person through which I will be in contact with lawyers ? It’s my first time, I don’t know how it works.
Thank you very much and good evening.

Ohhh it was via western union! Then they probably need to double check first and it’s probably not automatic just like paying with your credit card. That’s most likely why you didn’t receive an email with the retainer. Don’t worry, I am sure they’ll do that next week!
 
The other lawsuit asked for $1.5K to $2K (depending on when you signed up).

This is actually not true (if you mean everyone else), you can join LARRY R. GLAZER's new lawsuit for $ 500 and at no additional cost after the interview (deadline - June 15th).

In this lawsuit i found this very interesting, wondering how this would be implemented

"Along with the complaint we will file a temporary restraining order (TRO) asking the judge for expedited extraordinary relief. This will assure that we receive a prompt decision from the court; if successful, certain procedural barriers to interviews will be lifted. For this reason we view this regulatory challenge as a companion lawsuit to litigation seeking substantive relief in the form of visa adjudication or preservation of eligibility."

Which barriers? Any ideas?

No idea.
Maybe what they mean by procedural barriers to interviews is KCC taking unreasonably way more than usual time to process the documents and schedule the interviews?

In my opinion, KCC’s poorly implemented document review process is unreliable and should be replaced by a more efficient alternative.
Maybe a website where you create an account and upload all your documents on and if there is a document that is not accepted or missing, they would actually let you know.. that would be nice.
Better than faulty and unreliable emails of KCC (check Morrison’s tweet) let alone the generic, robot-like replies that don’t tell you where exactly is your case in the process.. etc

just my thoughts

It's a vague... In a sense all DV lawsuits are trying to remove "barriers" that lead to interviews. It is not to be interpreted as - interviews will be lifted.

I think the KCC doesn't really do anything difficult to process documents. What is KCC job here? just do base check and rearrange it in such a way as to follow the visa bulletin. Anything else? The main work in my opinion, is done by the FBI, when they do security checks on some application, but i think they check every applicant, on their databases. Anyway KCC has nothing to do here, just sent them the supporting documents.

but in any case, they already reviewed lots of supporting documents a few months ago, but still haven't set an interview date for many of us.

Yes I saw that, I think there were a TRO in Anunciato and Jacob Lawsuit and none of them were succeed I do not see any advantages in this lawsuit.
In my opinion only Curtis Morrison has been extraordinary focused on Diversity cases than any other attorney and it's really promising. just compare Curtis tweets with others

He had success with it last year so trying to capitalize on that. Perfectly understandable, even if the arguments this year are not the same. Lawyers should have that same disclaimer investment companies have to show....past performance is no guarantee of future results ...

The problem is that you have something like 20 contract employees dealing with tens of thousands of documents, and for a chunk of the year (like now) they are dealing with submissions by two DV years in parallel. If there is fault anywhere it’s the staffing decision. No wonder they don’t answer the phone, no wonder they take a couple of weeks to answer emails, no wonder they don’t totally individualize every response.
And by the way they need the embassies to tell them when they have interview slots, it’s not their fault they haven’t set you an interview date! Blame your embassy. If there are slots KCC will put people in them.

I'm not blaming KCC employ, which work there for 5K $ and i'm sure he/she is doing their job well, but for example on Travel Gov live, they said that they fired many employees and now they cannot add new ones, because this requires special trainings and so on. If you can't manage the number of your employees and didn't know how many employees you need in order not to screw up, so yes, they (management) are in some way responsible for this situation too, if they cannot process as many documents! and do not blame everything on the embassies. of course I am not saying that it is KCC's fault and the embassy is holy here.

I can't even find a link to that lawsuit. Can you share it with us? What's the interview deadline? I don't understand what that part means.
