I would not worry about it. the bar code is only included to speed up the administration process. In your case some one will have to actually go to a computer and type in your CN when they are processing your forms! Imagine manual work! Got to love those government jobs …..
 
Thank alemitmee,

I am so happy to hear that. So this means my case is OK, right? However, I want to sent my Bar Code to KCC. Should I need to send it? or email and attach with Bar Code instead? I am worry that if I send them again my document is duplicated and will be rejected.

There is no need to send birth certificate and high school diploma to KCC.
If you forgot the bar code, it's no bid deal.
 
Thank pharunde2,

If I want to send Bar Code to KCC later, is it ok?
or email them with Bar Code attachment.

Like he said, it's no big deal, no need to worry yourself to death, no need to send it alone...

as long as u write the case number on the TOP RIGHT side of each page of DS-230 and on the back of each copy of the original documents, u should be fine

Ok the reason the bar code is included is to speed up the administration processing, remember KCC gets 10’s of thousands of forms after the NL’s go out, so being able to scan in the CN is way quicker then having to manually type in every case number.
Given that you forgot to add it means that some worker at KCC will have had to type in your case number to what ever system they use in order to further process your file. Sending the Bar code now will really not achieve anything. Do not complicate things by sending it in now, its too late. For get about the barcode and start worrying about your documents. Do not send any documents to KCC apart from the forms requested, the people at KCC do not make the decision on your visa, that will be made at your designated consulate in your country. You need to bring all requested documentation to that interview, when you number becomes current.

By the way and this is not directed at the OP but all DV winners, this should help to highlight the fact that people should take time to fill out their forms and follow the instructions correctly.
I would suggest filling them out by hand. Then putting them away, then take them out again a few days later and see can you see mistakes, then fill in a new set of forms. Then again put them away again and so on.
When you are happy that you have filled in the forms with out any errors I would suggest people go to the online forms fill them in and print them out, that way there can me no mistakes when the forms are submitted. It amazes me the amount of posts that people put up that state “wrong name”, even “wrong DOB” once!
These are very simple forms and people should not be making stupid mistakes on them, take the time to fill them in correctly, get them verified by some one else’s before you go rushing to send them in. This may sound like common sense but make a copy for the forms before you mail them, really its not rocket science to think of this! I am just waiting for the posts now, “oh I never copied my forms, and I don’t remember what I put for Q number XX”

I spend a month making sure that my forms were completed correctly. Lets face it most people still have 6 to 12 months before their CN is current so there is no rush to send in the forms, get them right and follow the instructions!!!!!

Well said alemitmee!
Along with that people need to quit the incessant telephone calls and emails to KCC.
 
Many thanks to Alemitmee, Pharunde2, TNDV2008, Dematra

Thank you for taking time to find a solution and give me the good advice on my case. I am very proud of this forum and people like you who make good contribution and spend your valuable time for this. My word, all good thing must be with you.

So now I'll be fine. I've written all my forms with case number on the upper right corner. My worry is eased now.

Good luck all
