DV 2022 All Selectees (Consular Processing - CP)

Hello Simon,
Happy New Year!

I've been looking into my case number "2022AS13XXX" through the released CEAC data, where i have submitted my DV-260 early June-21, while the documents without being asked early July-21. Yet, the following has confused me!

- What does it mean that my "Submit Status" & "Submit date" are listed as none for my case?
- Why there is no assigned consulate for my case?
- The number of cases at NVC is showing "1". however, the total number of DS-260's submitted including derivatives is "4"?
- there is almost 8000 cases before my case and 4000 after, is this is too bad for Asia?

I can't thank you enough for your time and consideration in helping out this whole community!

You won't know that, because consulate appears in the data only after case is ready. You can see how many ready/issued etc cases are before you from your country, but not the total number.

Sorry, may I ask - is it not the numbers "before" and "after" in the region? I thought it is the regional numbers, not the country?

Yes, you can see before and after numbers per region, but this User was interested to see per country. You can only check processed (2NL and forward) cases per country.
 
Please am confused here and need help. I made a mistake in ds260 form. I submitted in june7. Can kcc still unlock my form?. And will it affect the submission date?

From my own experience unlocking DS affected my case.First submission was may26 resubmitted In August. Have not got any mail from KCC so far.
 
I understand that the removal of the requirement to send documents means that it’s highly unlikely regions will go current this year. However, will the closure of the Sydney embassy affect upcoming OC VB numbers? Is the VB calculated purely on the raw number of cases eligible for an interview, or does it also factor in other constraints? For example, Australia has the highest number of OC selectees by quite a margin. Therefore, if these selectees are unable to be scheduled for an interview (due to the embassy closure) will the VB cutoff increase at a faster rate to offset this loss of capacity by allowing more higher case numbers to be interviewed at the other locations with a much smaller pool of selectees?

I think that's a question everyone has, and remIns to be seen how they'll go about it. Also, note that VBs are set quarterly. So, if they wanna change course with VB, you'll see it for the April VB. The March VB won't increase more than it did vs the previous month, in fact it could even be slowed down.
 
Ok thanks very much. I made a mistake in my city of birth I don't know if that is going to affect me in the interview. Am case number 25xxxxx
 
Hello guys how you doing!
Even though my case is current for February 22 ,I had interview on last Jan 4/22. The officer told me that my interview was perfect and told me to bring some additional document regarding my daughter’s birth certificate and gave me form 212(g) and my passport back. The same day afternoon I submitted the requested documents and my families’ passport and it is still with them. But my visa status shows Refused. So does it mean the embassy decided on my case or still not? What is your opinion on my case’s decision depending on your experience?
Thanks in advance
 
Hi same with me submitted 24 May, resubmitted after unlocking mid August, current in January- have not heard a thing AF7XXX
 
Hi everyone,
My case number is EU12xxx. Please can you calm me down it is still ok I haven't received documents request from KCC yet? I have seen BritSimon's video where he talks about which documents need to be obtained and how to send them without KCC document request, however I am not in real rush for the medical examination and the interview as I am trying to save more money, but at the same time (of course) I don't want to get to the point there will be no visa available anymore.

The document procedure is removed. That video is now outdated. You now only submit Ds260.
To get an interview, you need them to process your DS, be current, and have an embassy which has caapcity.
When will they process the DS260, that's also my question.

They will most certain not run out of the 54850 visas available. Unless they manage to interview people at rate of the best month of pre-pandemic for all the seven months renaining .
So, don't worry you're in no rush for an interview and the interview is in no rush for you.

You shouldn't panic IF gour embassy works and processes DV and will have good capacity (low number of winners)

That is a minor error which doesn’t warrant unlocking the DS260 form, you can make that correction when you go for your interview.

Even if the embassy hadn’t requested you submit some additional documents at the end of your interview, they still wouldn’t have been able to issue your visas until February when your CN becomes current. You have what is known as a “soft” refusal until then.

Hello
You have already had your interview while you are not yet current.
Please, could you tell me what is your CN and your interview location?
On what date did you submit the DS260 form?
