DV 2021 ALL SELECTEES

At first l, I sent my docs without zeros at all.
Then shortly after, I resent my docs with full case numbers including leading zeros just as it appears on my 1NL.

That’s what I did.
Alright
I resent them but I hope it won’t affect my application.. the first one was sent in April.. and then I resent them with the correct case number in June
 

Good afternoon Sm1smom,​

It is immigration fraud to enter the US on a non immigrant visa intending to adjust status. If they are honest with CBP they will be refused entry. If they misrepresent their intentions it is fraud and carries serious penalties. It is unfortunately a tough situation with the Moscow embassy. Have they tried other embassies to see if they can take them? It’s hard but not impossibl. I read someone the other day got an appointment in Romania despite having no ties there.

Thank You for your reply SusieQQQ. wow, I need to let them about it, I had no idea. yes, its difficult situation for them. I'll tell them about trying to go to another country.
 
I am DV2021 winner, case number AS23XXX, GOH Plaintiff. I have sent my documents in April and they haven't been processed as per the email I received from KCC last week. In order for me to improve my chances for an interview, should I..
1. Resend my documents to kccdvdocuments@state.gov?? Please note that I have already resent them last week.
2. Should I email KCCDV@state.gov and inform them that I am a GOH plaintiff and ask them to process my case?
3. Both of the above (1 & 2)?
4. None of the above?

I did all of that.
Still nothing, they don’t even respond after one month.

I don’t think telling them that you are a plaintiff in any lawsuit would help. They only receive orders from above (Department of State) and if they have the list and are instructed to process listed plaintiffs, then they will do just that without needing confirmation from us that we are on the lawsuit.

But by all means do whatever that makes you feel more comfortable.
 
I’m not familiar with all the details of the lawsuits but isn’t this what your lawyer is supposed to be helping with? Or if as suggested you just need to wait till when/if someone gives them a list to work off there’s not much you can do. (Just being a plaintiff when nothing has been instructed to KCC/DOS by the judge yet does not get you extra consideration, correct?)

I don't think it will help to send the documents again. It might even hinder since it is so soon after you sent them last week. You can tell them you are a Goh plaintiff if you like, but the reality is there is no certain way to behave that will cause action on your case. With your case number it is pretty much obvious that you would not be processed and scheduled for interview, so if you do get an interview, it will be through the lawsuit.

Correct.

Not for Goh plaintiffs it seems. I watched one of their Youtube updates last week (Chuck and team) and they said that they do not interact with KCC on behalf of their plaintiffs. Which I find interesting because Curtis & team do. (Via form G-28)

I guess people have different expectations of what their lawyers should be doing …

By the way Brit, I tried asking this question on your blog page, and for some reason the question is not being posted. I have faced the same issue in the past as well. So I post a question and it doesn't show up on the questions list, then I try to post it again after sometime and it says that similar comment has been detected.

Our lawyers have handed a list of plaintiffs to KCC. So I was thinking that they might want to show progress to the judge in the next hearing. That is why I have been considering proactively informing KCC that I am a plaintiff. However, there are two emails (KCCDV@state.gov) & (KCCDVDocuments@state.gov). From my knowledge, the former gets a case after the case becomes current. keeping that in mind, I was considering emailing them and informing that I am plaintiff. I have heard that it had worked for some people with high case numbers.

I still don’t see how you expect the mere fact of being a plaintiff to push you to the front of the queue. So the lawyers sent them a list, that by itself doesn’t mean KCC is even going to look at it until a judge says they need to. You can have no idea what worked and what didn’t for some people unless you know every aspect of their case and how it compares to all the others - being a plaintiff may have been totally coincidental. In any case - how is it “progress” if they simply do one person who is a plaintiff instead of another who isn’t?

He has to approve your post, question will appear there only after Simon's confirmation.

Or at least this is what I assume, because normally questions appear later)
