found it. (for those curious there is a fox news article about it) but can't link
I am not well versed into law but I don't think such bill will pass, its not the first time, I remember during Trump time there was a similar bill and it did not go through

Hello, a question about the background checks.
Since I (but also many other people going CP) live in the USA, it is not clear how background check will be covered (I heard that in one consulate, one of the applicant was asked, to his dismay, for the US background check, as he lived in the US in the past)
1) Does KCC still performs background check, as it was supposed to, when there was the document processing procedure in place?
2) If not, shall I obtain US police records myself?
3) If I have to get police records, shall I obtain them at federal level (FBI) only or also at state level (State Police) as well?
4) If I have to get police records, shall they be in notarized form?

Someone was dismayed to find out they were subject to the background because they previously resided in the US? Not sure why they were dismayed to find that out considering that is normal/regular part of the process. Currently or previously residing in the US does not mean a thorough background check will not be conducted same way it gets conducted for someone who has never even been to the US before.
1. Yes, background checks still gets conducted before and after the interview. There’s the initial background check conducted with just the applicant’s names. Then there’s the additional background check conducted after the interview (after the biometrics have been captured during the interview).
2, 3, 4. The KCC/the embassy conducts the FBI and any other required background check on their own. You self conducted FBI background check (should you decide to get one done on your own) will not be accepted for immigration purposes as that check will not be as thorough as those conducted for immigration purposes. That is why there’s no requirement for anyone currently residing or who previously resided in the US to submit a US PCC.

Yes, the applicant was surprised, since he expected the US background to have already been done by the embassy post or by KCC.
He did not expect at all, to hear the consular officer asking him to provide the US background check.
This is exactly the point.
Perhaps he was an exception.

I’m sorry this makes no sense. Which embassy? Precisely what did they ask this person to provide in terms of “US background check”?
"Supposed" as in they say it's released on 15th and so they release it on 15th. Lol, after all these falsehoods and idiocracy by them you still expect them to stick with their word and actually do what they promised.

Yeah, I know.
I'm gathering some more detailed info from the person (we are in a common chat for EU), so I can post it.
He was able to get the visa, though.

Yes, it helps to know precisely what was requested and what was eventually provided (especially considering this person has gotten their visa) to guard against spreading unintended misinformation.

This same delay happened in January VB, I knew they will go to a large number but I was not expecting Africa to get to 50000 this quick,
- In that regard, there are many embassies that are open and cases are not current yet. It will give KCC a chance to hand out 2nls like crazy this time.
* My advice is to check your appointments from the DV Lottery application page, because some people do not even receive 2nl emails, or even see ready in the CEAC status, but their appointments have been set. Without them knowing*
Good luck.

They could have just made EU current. There are only handful of cases after 27K.
This is just dump.
They really are just a bunch of idiots.
The VB going up dosen't change the fact that they have only issued 1290 cases and scheduled 5897 cases.
If they obey to the law, they have to work in case number order and they still have to to do thousands of cases before the 13500.
This is just dump!
