Thank you. Yes I am following them, but now recently they are more busy about DV2020 or other topic, and I couldn't get prospect when will they can get the result from Judge Mehta. For now we don't have any deadline for Judge Mehta or government attorney, right? Could it be like DV2020, to have result win/lose more than 1 year later???

We need to make a realistic expectation
Even you have joined the lawsuits, especially for good luck case, probably reservation of visa is the best outcome
 
Hi Everyone!
I was wondering if anyone has any advice on how to handle our insurance. We will go for our activation trip in September and we want to wait for our green card to arrive, which can be up to 90 days as we all know. After that we want to return for up to 6 months to our home country to deal with our house etc. and then move to the US. During the whole time we will keep our current jobs, working remotely up to the point of our permanent move.
I found an insurance called America Patriot Plus, advertised by visitorscoverage as a suitable option for green card holders temporarily visiting, however I talked to IMG directly (the company providing this policy) and they told me, that as a GC holder I am not longer eligible for this policy and I need to apply for domestic insurance. As we are staying only for up to 3 months, I would really like to avoid that and even if I did apply, I would still have weeks being without insurance until I get enrolled if I was even allowed to do so.
I have searched all over the internet, I talked to the helpdesk from healthcare.gov, but no definite answer or solution so far.

Any help or ideas are much appreciated as I really don't know what to do with this.

Thank you!

Hi All, long shot but has anyone applied and been successful in obtaining an extension on their visa expiry for DV once received? Our 6 months expiry from our medical is fast approaching and wanted to see if there are opportunities to extend the visa expiry due to COVID reasons. Thanks.

If you are lucky enough to get visa in this year , please don't waste it . you can even leave the US immediately after landing and becoming LPR and that gives you 5 months to return back , but don't take chances in this year.

There is no “extension”, the only way to do it - and this was allowed during the worst of the pandemic when there were no flights out of some countries - is to let the visa expire, then contact the embassy to explain the unavoidable reasons it expired, and hope they will reissue. (A reissue - not guaranteed - always means paying the visa fees again and getting a new medical, by the way.) As a general rule, there were never reissues given for DV before the pandemic, and there are enough flights that I don’t think “Covid reasons” is going to work now. Seeing as the only way to do it is first let the visa expire, this seems an extremely risky route.
 
As a dual citizenship holder, should I send scans of both passports to KCC? I have only sent my passport from the country where I am born with all other documents required. Should I resend my documents again with my both passports?

No you don’t need to do that.

You pay the fee in person at the embassy when you go for the interview.

You don’t need a permit to leave for 5 months (or any time shorter than a year). You are officially a LPR/green card holder as soon as you enter the US on your immigrant visa. Your visa will be stamped on entry, at which point it becomes a temporary green card (read the print at the bottom of the visa about temporary I551, that is what it means - the endorsement is the entry stamp CBP gives). This temporary green card is valid for use for a year after you first enter and you can use it for anything you need a green card for. Assuming you have paid the immigrant fee, yes the plastic green card should be there within a couple of months. Do you have someone trustworthy to receive and keep it for you while you are away?
