DV 2021 ALL SELECTEES

Yes exchange rates fluctuate, but the point of it is to see what your assets are worth where you are headed. Back in the day when I did my interview, and I come from a place with very volatile exchange rates, I had a USD value too on all my asset statements. An exchange rate is not going to change $1000 into $10000, and there is not much real difference 10% or 20% either way in the overall assessment. And yes people might lie but that’s true of any form for immigration, and this one has the standard penalty and standard disclaimer ... and many people have found out to their cost that telling the truth about an unfavorable fact is less of a problem than a denial and possible ban for misrepresentation.



. I understand all of the information contained in this form and I certify under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America that the foregoing is complete, true, and correct. I understand that any willfully false or misleading statement or willful concealment of a material fact made by me herein may result in refusal of the visa, denial of admission to the United States, and may subject me to criminal prosecution and/or removal from the United States.
That’s a fair point.

I was considering the amounts as if I was doing my own net worth calculation. From that POV it looks bad on your net worth when the USDX goes up. I’d (in dollars) be “poorer” even though I’m still worth the same amount in my local currency.
 
I was selected for further processing for the DV-2021, and I completed and submitted by DS-260 online, for my and my spouse and children.
I'm also supposed to scan and submit my civil files (Birth Certificate, Police Reports, Passport Page, etc...). At what point in the process am I supposed to submit those documents? I get conflicting information, some saying I must do it now, but the state.gov website says I must wait until KCC contacts me and ask for those documents.
I'm confused, please advise.
Thanks
It’s best to follow the source’s instructions.
 
That would be the Public Charge Questionnaire (DS-5540).

Though it may not be asked at the interview, it’s best to have it complete and present at the interview. Not having it when it’s asked could delay your process.
From this year some 2020 selectees were asked to fill it. Those who had sponsorship (L -134) and got job invitation beforehand tackled this form otherwise there is a great chance they will ask you to fill this form. Interviews were more demanding than ever this year due to this new public charge rule.

Regarding the health insurance, some say there was a judge ruling that it is not necessary to have it for immigration type visa
Can anyone who has a knowledge update us?

Yes, completing the form and having it at the interview is standard practice. However, whether the individual CO will ask for it is a different story. Hence the suggestion is to have it and not need it. Then not have it and need it.

The health insurance requirement is still blocked, but other aspects of public charge are still in force as they have been for many years. So - technically you do not need to show health insurance, but I have explained how you can show quotes for plans to satisfy the interview requirement if it gets unblocked. A wise person would spend that extra time, just in case.

1. CN is a bit high
2. Why would you?
3. Unless you have a very good reason to not submit it, i would say submit the application ASAP. I received result on June 7 i submitted my DS260 on June 8.

Well, the reason not to submit ASAP with a high number is declaration of immigrant intent when you are not assured of an interview.
We don’t know what are really high numbers until they publish total number of selectees.

I can see how immigration intent can be used as a reason to reject an application in the future, even though it shouldn't. Yes i intended to immigrate legally since i was selected for the dv lottery, that does not mean i will break the law and overstay my visa if i want to come to the united states on any other visa.

Yes i agree were not certain what a high number is, In normal circumstances 46000 is a high number for AF but based on previous years its not an unreachable number. god only knows what effects the immigration ban will have on 2021 case numbers.

I would NOT submit the DS yet, at least until we see what happens with elections, EO, lawsuits, numbers when the FY begins, etc. Specially having a high number.
