I hope they will learn something from their mistakes and won’t repeat it again for future applicants. The process entirely is overwhelming yet some FO’s make it worse.

Sadly, I think it will continue into DV2024 at least, maybe longer.

DV lottery chaos – will it continue in DV2024?

So the dust is still settling on DV2023 but it has been, in some ways, a disastrous ending to what was looking to be a well managed year. The government can claim it as a “win” because …

If this is going to be the new normal, ending of fiscal years will be chaos from now on.

As you mentioned stop scheduling for new interviews would help people to save some of their time and money at least.

I understand it sounds ridiculous cause all of us were waiting for interviews yet ending the year this way is lot more travmatic.

When you add lawsuits, and the idea of making money out of this make everything more and more chaotic.

The law does not state each country has to receive 7% of the total number of visas, it only states no single country may receive more than 7%. So it doesn’t matter if your country only received 1% or 2% of the total number as of visa exhaustion. Once there’s visa exhaustion, that basically is the end for all pending selectees.
 
Hello Mom,

Yesterday I received my GC and I am very happy. I thank God, I thank you mother for all the support you gave us, you are special to us, may God bless you richly and powerfully.

I wanted to know if the social security number will be sent by USCIS or if I will have to process it at the local administration?

Congratulations and thanks for the additional updates. If you requested the SSN be issued on your I-485, the the SSA official will send you the SSN card.

NOTE: If you currently have a SSN with DHS restrictions, they will still automatically send you the same thing. You’ll need to visit the SSA office with your GC if you wish to have a SSN card without DHS restrictions written in it.

Thank you very much Mom, I never had a social security number. On Monday I go to the SSA office with my GC to have an SSN card with no DHS restrictions written on it.

Please Mom, I'll send you the dates to help me fill in my timeline, I'm always having trouble doing so. Sorry.

Thank you again very much, I hold you in my heart.

Hi mom,

What happens to work permits (EAD) received temporarily with form I-765 if they are not approved at this moment? Do they lose their status after September 30th or can they keep their status until those permits expire?
