Hi Maximum, welcome! With such a low case number (congrats!) I would suggest you just send in your documents soon.

KCC has not yet (that I have heard) requested any documents from DV22 winners, but hopefully in the next few weeks will start working through so they can set VB numbers for October, I think the more docs they have ready for processing the better!
I am OC6XX and sent my docs over the weekend.

For those in Australia, is anyone opting for the police check with or without fingerprints?

The fingerprint check isn't required, just the name check. This is a good thing as it costs more and takes a lot longer to do the fingerprint option..

Hi Maximum, Congrats! you have a fairly low case number. We also have a number in the 200's 2022OC000002**. When did you submit your DS260? We submitted ours May 12th. Hoping the Sydney lockdown will end soon and that there is some hope there may be at least a few interviews in October. I am only aware of two people so far with numbers less than 200 and neither of them had submitted their DS260 as of the end of June. Are you looking for a Sydney interview?

Hi AusOC, we haven't heard anything yet from KCC and we submitted our DS260 12th May. We have a low case number as mentioned before.
Waiting and hoping there might be news with the September VB out mid August.

It's likely that they'll probably get off to a much slower start than usual as they won't accept any cases from KCC for interviews until the lockdown is over. I wouldn't be too concerned if you have a reasonably low case number..

DV2022 applicants in Sydney should be fine, especially in 2022. Even if you do lose a few months, the Sydney Consulate (once it reopens) will have more than enough time to process and issue all the DVs for the remainder of the processing year.

Of course this is assuming that there won't be any future lockdowns, which is very likely to be the case given that most of population will be fully vaccinated by year end. So there's not much to stress or worry about here :)

The current advice would be to send in your documents (especially if you have low case number), the earlier you send it the better, it can avoid any unnecessary delays from your case being processed. Make sure to use your original case number (with leading zeros) when you doing so, since KCC processes cases / documents by original case number order.
 
Hi all!
My case number is OC4XX and I received an email to supply docs overnight.

Only issue is, I made a mistake on my initial DS260 and requested an unlock mid May then mid Jun to which they still haven’t replied. I followed BritSimon’s template so I’m pretty certain I sent it in the correct format.

When submitting my DS260, I either forgot to enter or the website erased my second citizenship and a number of countries dropped off my travel history (nothing high risk, just a trip to Asia).

I’ve correctly submitted under Aus chargeability so this mistake doesn’t impact passport submission, police cert, etc. I also don’t need the police cert for second citizenship as I never lived there so won’t be submitting one for it.

Should I submit docs now? Worried they might progress with docs before unlocking and then I lose the chance to amend before an interview at the consulate. Not sure of this but leaving off a second citizenship seems like a big deal?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone!
