DV 2021 ALL SELECTEES

[lasha]

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

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.

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?

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.

What’s the point of the last sentence? It’s very common among many agencies to only give first name and department (for what I think are quite obvious reasons). Amtrak does it too, for example. That last sentence just sounds petty.

so what are they going to do, sue for the contractor to perform? That at least I can understand.

For $ 389 million, you can do a lot, from implementing AI that automates tasks, and so on. the state budget of some Caribbean countries is not more than this figure

Or just hire more staff so we don't have to wait +2 weeks (nowadays almost a month) to get a reply from KCC..

I agree, it's more like 1 month now. (And I doubt that they are able to respond to everyone) No idea if many people are getting asked to send their documents.

Yes for me It's 27 days and still no reply

May I know which country you are in and when you received your "ready-to-be-scheduled" email?

 

[Erika_erika]

On K.Morrison page it says “how do you know if you are in the lawsuit”- “you have to receive an agreement by email.

I didn’t receive any agreement / contract - just send Western Union transfer and received a generic email to wait for a retainer to be assigned. It the deadline today - am I making fuss over nothing? I am just worried I didn’t receive the agreement..
Thanks

Isn't it better to start a signature campaign before we file lawsuit 6th June? I remember I signed for DV2020 last year.

Just to appeal judges the will of the people.I have tons of SNS followers to let them know how many people cares about this matter.

I personally think it’s a total waste of time just like hashtags are, but if it makes you feel better and you have the time to do it go ahead...imo the number of DS260s submitted tells them all they need to know about the people who ”care” and who actually have an identifiable interest in it.

I'm just trying to find my role to win this lawsuit...
In Fact I can earn only limited benefits from SNS as no Americans cares about DV program in the first place.
Thsus I will create thread on mega Forum to which 600 million users visit a month to see how they react with it.
