DV 2021 ALL SELECTEES

So sorry to hear you're going through this issue
My cousin had the same problem. There was an error in his birth date during DV registration. Instead of January 27 he mentioned January 07.
At first we thought the DS260 was blocked. We contacted KCC and they explained to us the date of birth does not match.
Below a workaround that we used to find the right date
1- go to the 2021 Entrant Status Check
2- Hit Continue
3- Under "type the confirmation number that was given when you applied", click on Forgot Confirmation Number
4- If not preselected click on DV2021
5- then enter all required informations
6- Enter the date of birth with different possibilities.
7- You will not be locked out
8- At some point, if the date matches you will see your case number poped on the screen.

If you get your case number it is mean your date of birth is correct. You should contact KCC with the date of birth mistakenly used and all relevant informations and they will forward the case to your country embassy where you will be asked to appear in person.

We did the steps above and we found out that we mistakenly entered 07 january instead of 27. Now KCC forwarded the case to Lome embassy. However the are closed due to the pandemic. We are expecting services resumption at the embassy of Lome to get hopefully this issue fixed.
I have a same problem what can i do ? Help me Please? Did you solve your problem? How should I send an e-mail describing my situation to KCC? did you solve your problem with the consulate? Does the KCC notify you of the consular appointment date and time?

Guys do you think it’s too late to ask to transfer the file to my home country ? I see in Abu Dubai they issued 4 visas for EU, zero ready. While in my country there are more than 60 issued and more than 100 ready. What is a better decision ? Wait for Abu Dhabi (they stopped at 4600, my case number is 6000), or try my country (stopped at 8900, but too many ready)?
Thanks

As i know right now transfers can take between 20 to 45 days and no guarantee for scheduling.

Am waiting on Abu Dhabi too and until this day no interviews for August
 
Hey guys over the past 7 days I have spent many hours contacting all the politicians, ambassadors and government agencies. I'm doing it as if is my new job and will continue doing it till September 30. I'm not going to sit Idle while these incompetent fools steal away our dreams. about 40 minutes ago i received a reply from Rep Ritchie Torres. He is the only one that replied so far.

Thank you very much for your efforts.
Much appreciated.

I wouldn’t advise you to do that.

Yes, it’s probably too late. Interviews for September are probably being finalized right now so imo KCC won‘t be making any more changes now.

Hi Erica, same here EU and Abu Dhabi. Our only hope now is the lawsuit. Are you RFS?

I was thinking the same, changing posts now at this stage might not be the best idea.
 
Hi guys,
can you any one give a suggestion to overcome Low income IRS report.

my DV visa sponsor successfully running a business in US but unfortunately due to the COVID-19 pandemic situation he need to close the business for some months, therefore he cannot file the income statement as much as the level expected for a DV visa sponsor.

I called for the interview next month, what can I do for this?

is the following suggestion is applicable in the visa interview?
provide last three years IRS report, and letter from the sponsor saying he not able to achieve last year due to the COVID-19?
 
Hi everyone,
I got my 2NL some days ago. I'm from Benin in Africa. Somebody told me that I should register my appointment on ais.usvisa com. But when I went on that website, my country was not on the list. I'm lost about that issue. Please help me out!!
 
I know that they checked my documents and I got a confirmation that everything is fine, soon it will be scheduled for an interview (documentary qualified - standard response). Is it the same as RFS? I didn’t receive any email that my file is transferred to the embassy.

Guys what do you think is the latest date till which there is a hope for being scheduled for an interview ? End of July ?

“Somebody” who? From kcc or the embassy? Usually DV selectees don’t need to do this step.
Where do Benin citizens do US immigrant visa interviews?

If you are a plaintiff in a lawsuit, then not necessarily.
Some of last year’s Gomez plaintiffs got RFS email AND 2NL in Sept 2020.
We will know more in the upcoming weeks.

I have a similar situation but I want to go to Canada.
If I go to Canada right now, then I will not have the chance to obtain my green card

Thanks for your assistance. I heard it in a YouTube's video. Benin citizens do US IV interviews in Benin.

RFS is the same as documentary qualified.

With the lawsuit in action we may see interviews being scheduled during September.
