DV 2021 ALL SELECTEES

Are the 50k annual DVs for the main selectees only (DV1) or including dependents as well (DV 2 and 3)? if DV1, 2, and 3 are all count towards the 50k then if one selectee added a new applicant (e.g. a new spouse), this will reduce the chances of selectees with high CN, isn't it?

It’s 55k, and yes it includes all visas including derivatives issued under the DV program. They expect a certain amount of added family members and take that into account when doing the selection, just as they do the fact that some people don’t follow their selection and others get disqualified. As you know DV is always overselected anyway, to a greater or lesser extent.

Hello,

I'm about to fill out the ds260 form. I got married since the original entry. So I will add my spouse as an applicant. Do I have to fill out my form first and then his? Or we can start with his form and then mine?

Thank you for your help!

Main selectee’s form always comes first.

Thanks mom for the quick reply.

I started filling out my form. When finished, I save my form and then I click on the "Add applicant" button?

it may seem silly but I don't want to submit the application by mistake.

In advance, thanks for your help.

Yes that is correct.
 
Again, thanks mom for your help!

I have an MBA (5 years after the high school). What do I put in "Highest Level of Education Completed" : ADVANCED DEGREE or UNIVERSITY DEGREE?

Big thanks!

There has been news that Trump wants to issue another EO for propose a merit based immigration system that includes DACA in the next few weeks. I'm curious if he has the power to enforce such a policy? Logically speaking it should have to go through Congress.

Apparently this will affect the immigration process as a whole, not just the lottery. That's not my point though. I want to know if he has the power to do that.

Please don’t clutter the thread with speculation especially about a topic that does not affect DV2021. If and when an EO comes out there is another thread to deal with it.

Before you do anything you should understand the process you are about to start - please go read Simon's blog and familiarize yourself, there are implications to filling in your DS-260

I suggest NOT filing your DS260 until we have a better understanding or a clearer perspective on what is going to happen. As someone above me literally just said, there are implications that you wanna keep in mind. Basically if you fill the form you are declaring your immigrant intent, and if this does not get solved, it will be an issue for future non immigrant visas you might want to apply for.
 
Hello,
So i made a mistake of submitting my DS-260 too early...
I have a few questions:
  1. I was born at a time when my country was occupied by Russia (was known as USSR) hence i have a russian birth certificate. Do i need to write something called patronymic as my other name?
  2. For place of birth should I write USSR (as in my birth certificate) or the name of the country after USSR occupation?
  3. And most important. In a month or two I am going to start working temporarily in another country (3-6 month contract). Will I need to update my DS-260 with a new visited country, new job, new residence?

I am 25XXX and haven’t filled it out yet either. I can’t anyways since my kid needs a passport and you can’t get one right now. No ETA at the moment so I’ll just wait. Given your case number, you don’t need to rush at all.
 
I don't know when I should submit DS260...
My case number is 2021AS0003〇〇〇〇〇.
I’m so anxious about it...
 
My CN is AS11xxx. I made a mistake submitting DS-260 with wrong information. I now have it unlocked but still didn't submit the corrected one. I don't think that you should rush. Take time in filling it correctly get all your information together, along with the documents and then submit.
