DV 2022 All Selectees (Consular Processing - CP)

Just received response from KCC. I submitted DS260 late november. Looks like they are still processing DS260, guess Brit was right when he said to be careful about forms being only "received".

They haven't updated their automatic replies yet. It will have to be seen what they write. They also messed up the automatic replies for the 2022 early ds submitees who were getting emails telling them how to proceed with dv2021 (it was a typo and they corrected it).

Is there any medical condition because of which they can deny visa? My son has autism, I hope that wont be a deterrent

Autism on it’s own is not a ground for visa denial. However, if the CO feels your son’s medical condition could end up making you become a public charge, they may deny your visa. So when you do go for your interview, be prepared to demonstrate your financial ability to provide for your son in the US without resorting to public benefits.

At this point, I have to caution you about spreading misinformation as some form of facts on this platform. Right now, it is unknown if KCC will indeed not be processing the DS260 or conducting the background checks as claimed above. Even Simon expressed his doubts on this as he indicated on his blog write-up

We just received three 2nl in our EU country viber group. They are schedulled by CN order, only current cases and only those who received document request or already dq. It seems to me that KCC will review DS forms and instead sending DR they will send 2nl. After that its all about CN order.
This is only guessing based on our group data and first three 2nl, might be completely wrong or just coincidence

Got it. Thank you!
 
So we got our interview appointment for January but our case is not current (probably will become current in February). we registered ourselves on the embassy website and after completing registration it was written to only come for appointment only if case number is current or call and reschedule. So once visa bulletin updates for January we will call embassy and reschedule.

Yes, that is what we did. and schedule your medical appointment ASAP. Our embassy website had the link for the centre where to get visa medicals.
 
Hi there, I have three questions:

1 - Can someone confirm the fees associated with the Diversity Visa? I am aware of the DV fee (US$ 330 per person) and the Green Card Activation fee (US$ 220 per person).

2 - Is there any other fees?

3 - Are the numbers/amount above correct?

Thanks

It's correct, you're also missing the medical which is around 300/person

Your first paragraph has false information. Since 2020 the selection became more secure thus making more cases as holes. This meant range of case bumbers became higher.

Ceac data will be out in a month and there could be better idea about the case numbers. I'm sure BritSimon will give very good information in time.

One thing is quite probable now: There were really high case numbers who managed to get DQ early on. If all regions had gone current in July due to the fake demand caused by kcc messing up document procedure and their embassy had capacity, they could have gotten an interview. However, because now the demand will be reported more accurately, all regions most likely will not go current given the overselection of winners this year. Thus, the DQ'ed individual with very high class number could not become current as happened in 2021.
There are many factors playing out, e.g. covid, embassy capacities, etc.

May I ask whether anyone has posted any analisys yet on the holes this year? Nothing is coming up on Google.

I agree with you that its unlikely that ALL current will happen soon, tho one question re:"will not go current given the overselection of winners this year" - where did you get this information? I cant find info on number of selectees actually being higher in DV22 but can see that there were MUCH less entries and total people for dv22 travel.state.gov/content/dam/visas/Diversity-Visa/DVStatistics/DV-applicant-entrants-by-country-2019-2021.pdf

Not yet, because the data will be out on 1st Jan 2022,so no info yet on holes.
You can see the number of selectees in the visa bulletin of August this year.

Check out Brit Simon's historical visa table HERE to see when your number went current in past years. You can't really compare, but just to have an idea. If there are years when your number didn't show up, then it's quite a high number.

Although of course, we have a big backlog of people that didn't get interviews (we are 3 months in with very few interviews). Assuming they will schedule interviews based only on CN, then even if your number goes current in March let's say, chances are you won't be interviewing in March but in April or May.. But this depends also on the capacity of your embassy, the number of people assigned to said embassy and, out of those people, the number of people that have submitted DS260s.

Thank you so much, my friend.
 
How can I get information about the capacity of US embassies for DV visas? I mean, there are 3 posts I can choose-Ankara, Yerevan, Abu Dhabi- How do I know which one has more capacity for scheduling DV interviews?
