Isn’t that precisely what Susie explained in her post?

About disqualification between 1st selection and winner announcements, i was saying there could be disqualification based on wrong photo background, and she said the disqualification in this case is at the interview.

Yes, i said the computer would not disqualify it (but it could happen later at interview)
and then you said

But if i uploaded a photo with dark blue background it will be accepted, i don't think the computer will reject it when selecting process starts.

Which is the same thing, no?

Hi , will it be too late to submit my ds260 in January? since I want to wait and see what happens after the end of December.

Nope. Not late at all. If everything goes well with the EO and the pandemic, then you’ll have plenty of time.

I know of people who had forgotten to check their selection status until the very last months of the DV. They managed to process everything before September 30th.

Of course, their number had already been current months before they had learned about their selection.
 
Hi,
I'm DV winner 2021EU11xxx. Yesterday I sent to KCC email about unlocking my DS260, because I wanted to make some small changes in there. Today, I received email that my DS is unlocked.
However, I don't see on CEAC website any change where I can edit my application and also whenever I enter application, I can only review it, but I can't make changes. Does anybody of you guys have the same problem?
Or does it take for example couple of days for them until my DS 260 is ready to be changed and this is only a technical problem?
thanks for your help!

Mine was editable after KCC unlocked. Perhaps you would want to email them to follow up.

Mine too, as soon as I got the message from KCC, it was completely editable! There must be a technical issue.

Hey guys,

I am very slowly filling out my DS-260 and my husband has a very long first name + numerous middle names. I can't add all his middle names under "given names". Should I add the missing one under the "are you known under any other names" category?

Sorry, you might have answered this already!

Yes put the rest of the names under the other names section.

Hello. I have two concerns please help!
I live in third country as asylum seeker for 13 years and luckily, my wife got selected this year (DV 2021):
1. In my current country of residence the police certificate can't be given directly to the applicant, it can only be sent by mail directly to institution that requested it (in our case the US embassy), HOW DO I DEAL WITH THIS WHEN KCC REQUESTS OUR DOCUMENTS?
2. 11 years ago I was put in administrative detention pending a confirmation of my Identity to confirm that I qualify to file an asylum application, three months later I was released, SHOULD I include it as imprisonment? I didn't appear before any court, and all the relevant records no longer exist after 10 years as by law any records of this kind are deleted after 10 years unless they were serious crimes. Being unable to know how this affect my police record, I decided not to mention this event on my DS260, is this wise?

Hello, I have the same concern #1. Can someone experienced in this forum advise on this?

Thank you

You should get a receipt for the request for PCC, just email kcc a copy of that with a note or copy of DoS reciprocity info explaining it is sent directly to consuiate.
 
Hi all
I have a question regarding DS260 forms (I already submitted and waiting for Doc request email). In the October submission round, I submitted my derivatives information and put the Family Name as the fourth name in my children's birth certificate. My children had no passport at that time. I got new passports for them but the passports showed their fifth name as a family name (and I cannot change that). So in the DS260 I put the fourth and fifth names as Family name to keep consistent with what I did in October entrants and what are in the new passports. Is that OK or may disqualify our application. Also, one of the children's birth certificates shows my name "mother name" just three names (without my family name) Is that OK?

I have exactly the same issue of the passport child name. I contacted KCC and the following is the reply:
"The required forms should be completed using the name that appears on your passport and/or other legal documentation. Any other names you have previously been identified by, including maiden names should be listed on the DS 260 in the "Other Names Used" field."
