DV 2022 OC Selectees

Thanks.
I would like to understand the vb.
For e.g considering that NZ and Sydney embassys are closed at the moment and there is no clear time frame on when it gets back to normal....what impact does it have on the cut off numbers. Will the closure hinder KCC to increase cut off numbers to cater for Fiji embassy and prioritize Fiji cases.....
All the OC CNs will proceed at the same pace regardless of which embassy is open or closed. OC selectees are processing all over the world, including in the US. So the NZ and or Sydney US embassies being closed will not lead to higher CNs for selectees from Fiji being prioritized.

Hi Georgia, if you are current in October you won’t lose your place in any later months, once it’s open you can be scheduled in a later month. I don’t believe there have many many/any October interviews scheduled anywhere regardless because KCC are off to a slow start.
Hi aus ,
No i am not current. I will probably be current in may
 
Fingers crossed fro you....and fingers crossed the embassy opens up in October. The October VB is due to come out in a couple of days too which should give us a (potential) picture of what November looks like if the embassy is open and people get DQ'd and receive a 2NL.
hi guys, i received a document request last night. Hope yours is being processed too. Best wishes
 
I have asked this question before but did not get a response - hoping for some advice.
My husband, me and my two daughters both have DS260's under my application to complete. Submitted mine and husbands today. Both my daughters were born in US and are citizens - they hold no other citizenship yet. I am unable to complete the forms for them - as one of the questions is country of origin and USA is not on the drop down. I emailed the kcc a couple of mths ago asking them to remove the applications and they responded one month ago saying I need not complete the DS260, however when I submitted my husband and my applications it said they would not be processed until all applicants are complete. Now I am in a pickle of what to do. Do I just say the country of origin is Australia so I can submit there forms?
 
I can't imagine how frustrating it must be for the FY21 guys who had Sydney appointments scheduled in August and September only to be cancelled..
thats very unfortunate for OC 2021 people based in Aus. I wonder if that means they'll let them process through for DV 2022, though by the looks of that letter maybe not. Hopefully Covid situation has cleared by this time next year for us 2022 folk based in Australia.
 
We may not be as affected as much as it was like for dv2021....atm we do not have travel ban, kcc are processing documents(not very efficiently as I feel lower no# should be processed first), and the embassy at my home country is taking dv cases generously for interview(since Oceania doesnt have as many applicants as that in other regions so accepting interview may be the same as that precovid), and we may have interviews throughout the year till september. This wasnt the case in dv2021 and dv2020

Hey Aussiebrit, might be one to post on Britsimons question page...
I have seen him tell a few people that you do not need to complete a ds260 for the kids but they must be listed on your form. The only thing I can think of is possibly in your own form you should select that they will NOT be immigrating with you (as they don't require immigration), perhaps this allows it to be submitted?

Thank you! Appreciate the response. Yes I said on my form and my husbands form that they would not be immigrating with us. But there ds260 is still showing as an applicant and I cant proceed past the country of origin page for their forms.

I think you just ignore their forms, and only submit yours and your spouse - I don't think it should affect KCC processing.
 
So I submitted my D260 a couple of days ago. Just remembered though for the part where they ask about other countries you've been to in the last 5 years I mentioned about 6-7 countries i've been to though I realised I forgot to add Portugal. Would I need to unlock d260 and mention this or should it be fine to leave it since it was just 1 country I forgot?
