@Britsimon: Google chrome is warning me about insecure content from this site
View attachment 842

I got this from the site admin.

"i got the code cleaned, since then i have not received a redirect URL complaint, this might be coming from the fact that we recently switched to https. Anyhow
i am getting the forums upgraded today, so will look into the errors after that is done"

I was getting the same problem in Chrome, no warning in I.E. I allowed Chrome to run the script and nothing bad happened. The site was reporting being not secure (the https point that is made above). I cleared cache and reloaded the site, and the page is now reported as secure and all is well. Up to you whether to follow the same steps.

And this is exactly what I’ve been telling people: clear your cache, delete your bookmark and reload the page.
 
You'd like to think any bill passed would impact only dv-2020 onwards but i guess once the president signs it, it becomes law effective immediately? Which means any DV visas wouldn't be processed.

Oh well, what can you do. Just get on with life i guess.

I would not expect a lot of empathy for dv lottery selectees from the administration...
 
You are right of course. I think once the bill is passed it will just get cut from that very moment. Let's hope it doesn't get passed, but i suspect they will just keep amending the bill until it does.
 
'(c)

Effective date

The amendments made by this section shall take effect on the first day of the first fiscal year beginning on or after the date of the enactment of this Act.'

^ from the bill itself. IF it were passed this would imply dv2018 is safe
 
Well hopefully if it goes thru they will add something in that those already selected for 2019 will be the last to be processed.
 
I also wonder if those that have been selected
For the 2019 dv will get processed from October till December. I would miss out but at least some would be ok
