DV 2021 ALL SELECTEES

Hey everyone have a question do i first get the email asking for my documents from kcc or i just send them any how? Thanks
 
Hi - my case number is between OC250 and OC350. According to the visa bulletin, cases up to OC350 will be active in the month of November. Does this mean I should expect to hear from the KCC? I haven't yet received an email to submit my documents.
 
Hello,

My cousin won the 2021, and doing CP, with AS15***. Her case# prob will be current in April or May.

We are about to file her DS260. She is pregnant and expecting to deliver around April. How can we include her newborn when that time comes?

If the interview has not yet been scheduled when the child is born, add a derivative to the ds260. If the interview has already been scheduled, the DS260 will not be accessible anymore, and she should contact the embassy to inform them of the birth. In both these cases the baby will get its own visa. If she has the interview and gets a visa before the child is born, the baby will not get its own visa, and she can just take the child and get it processed for a green card on arrival (it will be preferable to get a “transportation letter” from the embassy in this case so the airline knows it can board). In all cases, she will need to get a birth certificate and passport for the baby.
 
Best thing is to wait, you will receive an email when your CN is processed. I submitted my documents on 19th August but did not receive a reply after 6 weeks. I have emailed KCC and this is the response I got:
Hi friend.can you send me your wats app number if you don't mind.i am from Sri Lanka
 
updates for DV2021
Seema at the embassies DV is not an urgent matter, i think in my opinion that is why visa bulletin case numbers are moving slowly, and lawyers made a lawsuit for it.

So what do you think guys, we'll be able to start the interviews in January, or we have to wait to get the 2NL in January wich means we will lose almost 6 months of the process ?

As far as i understood, unless trump renew the PP, interviews shall begin in January, so i think in December KCC will assign interviews dates.

But would they so that ? Or wait until 31/December to check if trump renew it ? I don't know

Anyone tried to call the KCC and ask that question?
 
If they have a plan to schedule interviews in January they should be sending out 2NLs in 3rd or 4th week of November. I do not know whether there is a possibility to send interview notifications in a short time period like they did with DV2020 in September.

Well, they could but the problems is about the medical examination . For example are some country where to get all the papers what you need from the doctor takes more than 2,3 weeks...also are some countrys where takes only a few days, so for sure the could ! With DV2020 wasn't this problem just because most of the people got their medical exam papers. I hope this month to receive the 2NL's and to see some movement.
 
My case number is AS21xxx. When should I send My DS 260 application ? Is it too early now ?
Also do I have to translate all documents to English when later submitting required documents ?

Thank you

First questions really depends whether you will apply for a U.S visa later down the line.
second question the answer is yes make sure you have everything translated into English using a certified translator.

Yes, I intend to apply for tourist visa later if my number does not become current at the end of the fiscal year.

Thank you

That will be harder to do if you have submitted a DS260, though presumably you will do so at some point during the FY anyway if your number looks like it will become current. Remember they need time, possibly a few months, to process documents before an interview, so imo I wouldn’t wait too long either, or jeopardize a DV visa for the sake of harder to get a tourist visa later if you might need one. That said, there is definitely no rush to submit one now with your case number, and it’s probably prudent to wait and see how case numbers progress once the ban is over and actual CP interviews are taking place.
 
Hi Susie,
I have a question regarding that. By the end of the fiscal year, if my number doesn't become current. And let's say, months or years later I want to go to the US for vacation with an ESTA Visa (french passport). Will there be a problem because I have filled and submitted a ds260?
Thanks
