DV 2021 ALL SELECTEES

The passport requirement was new from DV2020 and of course there ended up being not many interviews so there is not much to go on in terms of actual experience. It seems though from what we do know that they are being very strict on this requirement and your friends can expect to be disqualified. It’s crystal clear from the rules that what they submitted is not acceptable. But please update us after they interview so we do have some actual experience for the next person that asks.

The passport requirement started with DV2021.
 
DV-2022 application has opened. As a "winner" for 2021 there would normally be no reason to apply, but I've got to say that at the moment I'm seriously considering it as a backup. Any reason not to do this?

Hi guys

The judge ordered 9k Visas which is 1/3 the remaining visas claiming that the pandemic wasn't government mistake neither the plaintiffs and the government are working with the partial capacity

So what is the difference now , Specially that pandemic hitting the peack again as second wave??
Is there a possibility that the 55k not fully consumed same as DV2020
 

From the dropbox link:

We believe dates will become current for all or virtually all DV-2021 winners based on prior years

I wonder why they believe that - I hope they are not just assuming that because the last 2 years went current.
 
Great forum,
Just wondering; If a selectee is physically in the US on a B2 visa when the DV results are released, can he process AOS given that his CN is likely to be current after the six months legal status has lapsed?

No. You have to be in legal status to be able to adjust status.
 
My wife and I entered for the first time this year and I’ve been selected for further processing! Case number 2021AS00029XXX.

Anyone have any idea what our chances are with a case number in this range?
What do you mean by the case number? I got selected in June and receive the case number ASxxxx. I was told to fill out ds260. But dont know if i need to fill out AOS or not

In general lines, AOS (Adjustment Of Status) is if you are in the US (with a legal status) and you will complete the process there. Otherwise you will be doing CP (Consular Processing). The case number determines when your case will be ready to be interviewed.
 
Fantastic forum guys, thank you for all the information!
I have one question if anyone can help me out. My case number is 2021EU00029XXX. Anyone knows when can I expect to hear from them? I did fill out DS-260 and sent it in June but it's October already and I havent heard anything from them. Any thoughts on this?

Your case number is relatively high and there won’t be interviews before next year so it may be a while.

Thank you for your answer. The interview should happen before September 2021 correct? I mean I do not mind waiting "a while" or even more, as long as it happens before the deadline. Also, can you guys advise me on should I apply for 2022 lottery that is open now (for like a mini-insurance sort of thingy)?
