First let me address people checking their results and later on this page I have some comments for winners. Please read the whole page carefully and note the embedded links. Click the links. Read. Please.
Britsimon
As I write this it is almost midnight on the East Coast America and 9pm in California on the evening of May 8, 2019. The DV lottery results were published 36 hours ago. It is early morning in Asia, and people in Africa and Europe are still mostly asleep but waking up. I explain that for some context for what I am about to explain.
I received HUNDREDS of messages yesterday from people frustrated because the DV lottery Entrant Stats Check page has been crashing and was unavailable for much of the past 36 hours. Some people have managed to check their results, but traffic to the site is still high and the site will most likely continue to be difficult to check for another day at least. It did come back online for a few hours this evening – but traffic has once again caused outages.
So – as I mentioned in my earlier post, to avoid frustration just don’t bother trying to check every five minutes. Learn some patience and leave it for a few hours or even days and then check. This is a long process, there is NO ADVANTAGE in checking early, and there is no race to start the process. EVERY winner will wait at least 6 months after today before ANY interviews. Some cases will wait almost 18 months. So what is the hurry????
Now I am, predictably, getting many messages from people that cannot enter their details correctly. They swear they are following directions on the site but the site rejects their entry. As of this time I do NOT believe their is any system problem stopping checking other than availability of the system. So – people that do get through are most likely just not following instructions. I created a post to help people check their results and that post is here. Please click this link and read how to accurately check your entry.
I am also getting questions from people that lost their confirmation code. On the ESC page there is a link that reads “Forgot Confirmation Code” or similar. Click that and follow directions to retrieve your code.
For winners
First – congratulations on your selection! Please read the letter you saw, it points out that among other things, selection for further processing does NOT guarantee a Green Card. There are minimum requirements that must be met and there are a limited number of visas. It is not first come first served, there is an order to the process (Case number order in each region).
Please understand this is a long slow process. Very few of the winners will be interviewed this year. Most winners will be interviewed in 2020. So slow down and take some time to read about the process. I have produced a lottery guide, a guide on completing the DS260 and literally hundred of articles and a FAQ to help you avoid mistakes. Please go through those things. The lottery guide link is at the top of each page as is the FAQ. Most questions are answered if you read that information. I am one person, I have a really busy full time job and spend much of my free time helping DV lottery selectees like you, but you can make my task easier with a little effort on your side. Please respect my time and take your opportunity seriously.
About the DS260. I recommend that NO ONE completes that form until they know what they are doing. The form is a formal application for immigrant visa. Completing it has implications and completing it badly can cause disqualification. So STOP and learn before you jump into completing that form. There is no advantage to completing it fast, and most of you will have to wait months or even a year before ANYTHING happens on your case.
Now a word about the selectee numbers and the implications of the case numbers. Of the case numbers I am hearing of selected winners I am hearing some very high case numbers, MUCH higher than the past couple of years. Each year, KCC select more winners than there are visas available, knowing that some will not continue the process, some will not meet requirements and so on. However, they vary how many selectees are drawn. Ideally they should select less than 100,000 people including family members. In some years they have selected around 80k people and that means almost everyone can get an interview, and in other years they have selected 125k or even 140k people. That is far too many and inevitably some people never get invited to interview – there are numeric cutoffs imposed (varying numbers by region) and case numbers above those numbers will not get an interview. No interview means no Green Card. It’s a tough realization, but that could happen in any year.
So – as of today we do not know how many selectees have been selected. We will find that out in a month or two, but until then all we know is case numbers. However a couple of important points about case numbers.
- Each case number represents a winner AND whatever eligible family members (spouse and children under 21) they have. Each one will take a visa slot for one of the 50,000 visas available. So a family of 5 takes 5 of the 50k.
- Next, you need to understand that cases are not consecutive. There are “holes” between the numbers. So the numbers might go 1, 2, 5, 6, 8, 9 and so on. 3, 4 and 7 in that example are “holes”. We don’t know how many holes there are yet and we don’t know how many selectees there are overall. So if you have case number 10001, there are not 10000 cases in front of you. There are less than that. Now – although the numbers I am hearing sound very high, it is possible that there are more holes than usual. No one knows. To understand why the holes are there at all, please read this “holes theory” article. Just note that the word theory is in the scientific sense. We KNOW this theory is a fact, and have proven it in many different ways.
Once we know how many selectees have been chosen, we will know more. Until then you can review the historical bulletin numbers (link above) to see what happened in previous years.
Within a day or two I will post again and will guide you through the process. This process demands honesty and respect, and so do I. I am not here to help liars, I am not here to be taken advantage of. I do this because I want to, and I am someone who has benefited from the DV lottery process.
Lastly let me start your journey with a word you will need to learn over the coming months. Patience. Patience is key in this process. Please remember that.

May 10, 2019 at 22:07
Read the FAQ or google “Britsimon I-134”
May 12, 2019 at 17:29
Brit,
At what stage we need to show that we are self support or submit I-134?
May 12, 2019 at 17:40
At the interview.
May 12, 2019 at 18:45
Let be optimistic, if they will call me for interview, if I show that I have like $12-13k savings and a car TD and some shares and bitcoins 🙂 and the fact that I will go and live with my family in USA (so no rent, utilities, etc), would that be enough?
May 13, 2019 at 01:15
Possibly. It varies by CO, case and so on.
May 10, 2019 at 14:45
Hello, I have been selected in DV2020 but my case number is OC16XX…Do I have little hope of an interview?
May 10, 2019 at 22:25
It is too soon to know. By past years, too high. BUT maybe there is a chance as explained here:

May 10, 2019 at 18:14
I have a relatively low case number AF000009XX and I’m planning to submit my DS260 towards the end of the year. Is it a problem to submit my application pass where interview time (based on case number is going to be early)
May 10, 2019 at 22:52
No problem.
May 10, 2019 at 21:49
I once wrote about been potential winner and truly i am. I play two separate entries for me and my Girlfriend.we both play with a status as a Singles. Luckily My other half was successful.this Dv program is very dramatic. a lot happens behind scenes,this is a girl i convince, talk to and we both bring the topic of Travelling every-time,and at time i told her i will not eat meal from her until she play.today fortunately she wins.people who are anxious of DV process are not always lucky,but the uninterested ones are the Blessed one. am a testimony. am too anxious.
Bristimon,i have a Concerned,
I was once married, but I got divorce.that was around 2017.I have some travelling records experiences with the US Embassy.
I want to marry My girlfriend,but i dont want to traveled with her immediately.this perfect time to put things in other.
Will my attachment or her Marital status taking into my divorce history not affect her Case?
Should i leave her status single and we both can get married later?
2020AF23xxx
please i need your advise to take decision in order to proceed.
May 10, 2019 at 23:15
A genuine marriage is one where you would marry in any case, not just to gain immigraton benefit. So – you need to think about whether your marriage would be genuine or not. If it is, then marriage is not problem. I assume you were entirely honest with the embassy before and have legal documentation for the divorce etc.
May 11, 2019 at 02:42
EVERYTHING IS ON COURSE WITH THE EMBASSY,THE MARRIAGE WAS THERE WHEN I ONCE ATTENDED VISITOR VISA INTERVIEW AND WAS DENIED AND NOW AM DIVORCE, AND WILL BE MARRIED TO ANOTHER PERSON. AND AS YOU MAY KNOW THEY HAVE ALL RECORD OF ME TILL DEATH.ABOUT MY MARRIAGE GOING TO BE OKAY,AND THATS THE REASON AM NOT GOING WITH HER.
May 11, 2019 at 11:54
Hello. My dad won, he has high number (around 40 000) but i’m still curious. I qualified as a child when i filled out (under 21 and single), now i’m 21. Do i still qualify for the green card?
May 11, 2019 at 15:31
There is a period of protection for derivatives about to turn 21, but you will probably age out before you can be interviewed.
https://britsimonsays.com/child-turn-21-can-heshe-get-visa/
May 11, 2019 at 12:30
Hi, firstly, a big thank you for this website.
I’m progressively reading through your articles and it is very helpful – greatly appreciated. My case number is 2020OC000003XX and I have a question regarding a derivative/spouse application as I have a long term partner, but we’re not married.
1. My understanding is that I’ve got an advantageous case number, but defacto relationships do not count, rather they have to be official marriages, is that correct?
2. If 1 is correct, I would like to wait as long as possible to be 100% sure that marriage is correct for myself and my partner and then, assuming we marry, submit the application. Would late 2019 – early 2020 be too late?
3. So far I haven’t found if there’s a page which details the previously successful case numbers for Oceania (I’m assuming that there is some assumptions which can be gathered from that) ie if case numbers above OC08XX have always shown to be successful, I’ll be confident in my position. Do you have a link to such information?
Again, huge thank you for going out of your way and providing so much great information.
May 11, 2019 at 15:37
1. Yes.
2. No.
3. Your number is very low. You’re fine. The link you were searching for is at the top of this page and every page on my blog.
May 11, 2019 at 17:39
Should I throw my confirmation number when I haven’t been selected? Or I should keep it and recheck in October again?
May 11, 2019 at 18:06
There won’t be a second draw.
May 24, 2019 at 10:54
Is that for sure ?
May 24, 2019 at 14:22
No – but common sense shows there are TOO MANY selectees this year – why would they add any more?
May 11, 2019 at 17:42
Just got selected 2020AF51xxx Has Africa had interviews with such high CN?
May 11, 2019 at 18:04

May 11, 2019 at 19:16
Hello! My case number is 2020EU00039420. Do I stand a chance? Also what exactly does the case number imply? Do high case numbers not even get an interview?

May 12, 2019 at 10:09
I am also from Saudi Arabia and I was selected with case# 2020AS000240xx
I know two other guys were selected in Asia region with case numbers 2020AS000200xx & 2020AS000300xx
It seems there are lot of holes this year in Asia region.
May 12, 2019 at 13:56

Ahmed ,More holes means better chances of getting a interview ?
May 13, 2019 at 00:15
@BritSimon, Yes you are right but it seems to me – or I hope 🙂 – there are new rules/procedure to make the Asia region number jumps from 15xxx selectee to 30xxx or more
@Adil, Sure more holes, better chances for getting an interview
May 13, 2019 at 01:20
@Ahmed . As we both in Saudi Arabia is that possible if we can be in contact if u can share your email or any other contact way if it is allowed in this forum to share personal email . It can be helpful because we both are in same country .
May 13, 2019 at 09:35

You should check for yourself. If you had even tried you would know you need more than the case number.
May 12, 2019 at 06:31
Hi,
My question is specifically related to those who have been selected while residing legally in the United States and need to apply through USCIS by filing Adjustment of Status form. I checked USCIS processing time for Adjustment of Status applications and it takes on average 10 months depending on where the field office is. With this in mind only those case numbers which become current in first months within the start of fiscal year get a chance to be approved by USCIS. The processing times are, however, all for employment and family based adjustment of status applications and I couldn’t find anything related to Diversity Visa-Related I-485 Applications.
I am wondering how can USCIS manage to handle this issue?
If this is the case I think those who have been selected while residing in the United States will be discriminated due to sluggish processing going on in USCIS.
Thank you
May 12, 2019 at 13:25
That timeline does not apply to DV cases – DV cases move much faster, and can file early. In the past I have seen cases become current in the FINAL month and successfully go through AOS. However, for the DV2020 year (being oversubscribed) I would recommend cases should be on CP if they expect to be current in the last month or two.
May 12, 2019 at 14:31
Hi Brit,
Does that mean that AoS also follow the case numbers? I.e if I apply for AOS and my case number is not current, it will not be approved?
May 12, 2019 at 14:36
Of course.
May 12, 2019 at 18:44
Hii Brit my case number is EU44XXX

hello…
i’ve been selected and my name is in my passport let’s say: Ali Mohammad Asim Ahmed
so i said my 1st name was Ali 2nd was Mohammad and last name is Asim and didn’t mention Ahmed
bcuz i thought when i renew my passport it will be 3 names only like my sisters and Asim would be my last name but they said it won’t be the case and they’ll write my whole name…
i didn’t apply DS260 yet
Q1: is it gonna be an issuee?
Q2:should i change Asim into Ahmed in my DS260??
thank u
May 13, 2019 at 01:29
1. Your DS260 should match your legal name. If you have other names, they should also be on there.
2. Your decision.
May 13, 2019 at 01:32
It is my legal name is just my 3rd name on my passport not the last.
Plz hep what do u think i should do?
May 12, 2019 at 21:24
Hello, I want to know if I can start the ds260 if my son has his passport expired. Thanks
May 13, 2019 at 01:44
You don’t need to rush to complete the DS260.
May 13, 2019 at 01:30
hi brit,
you earlier said that if one check his status now and see not selected one should keep it and check back around october, is there going to be another draw or a supplementary list?
May 13, 2019 at 01:56
In some years that happens. I am pretty much certain it will not happen this year.
May 13, 2019 at 01:35
Hi Brit ,
My name is Muhammad Adil Tanveer in passport , but on my high school certs and birth certificate it is Adil tanveer means Muhammad is missing . Should i try to change my name on high school certs and birth certificate or it will be ok if I submit as it is ?
May 13, 2019 at 01:38
Im confused because i think its a long process to change name on high school certs and birth certificate
May 14, 2019 at 07:08
I think you should take a prof at your residence office that Muhammad Adil Tanveer is the same person as Adil Tanveer. At least this is the procedure we take in my home country Albania, because the court takes a lot of time to change the name.
May 13, 2019 at 04:39
Hey, thanks a lot for the information you provide us, that is vitally useful, I dont care about my big case number, I think I will be interviewed and get my green card 🙂 The question I would like to ask you is I am going to be father in a few weeks, should I wait and submit DS-260 after birth of child, or I can submit it now, and then when we get passport for our child we will just add that information?
May 13, 2019 at 04:46
You may as well wait.
May 13, 2019 at 06:37

Hello Brit.
Under Medical quiz.
Do you have documentations to show that you have vaccinations as per the u.s.?
Is it right to say No,and explain am planning to go for medical.
Cause i dont have the documents and acknowledging yes might be a major issue.
Advise!Thanks

It’s not a major issue either way, but no is the more accurate answer.

Hi
Thank you for your helpful post and your forum. I wish I saw this earlier before submitting my DS 260 form. I have submitted my DS 260 and subsequently realised I had accidentally provided the incorrect year of marriage on my form. I have contacted KCC to advise of the error and advised I email them to reopen my Form. Will this delay my process?
I am from Australia and my current case number is 2020OC18xx which is extremely high case number. I am not even certain I will be able to get an interview.
Thanks
May 15, 2019 at 03:48
You should NOT have submitted your DS260! It’s far too soon to know whether you have a chance or not.
May 15, 2019 at 11:20
Yes after reading your posts and comments. I definitely can understand why I should have not submitted the DS 260. Are there any future immigration repercussions for submitting the DS 260 too early and not receiving a chance of an interview due to a high case number?
Appreciate your views

No. Depending on your case number It will take you almost as long to get the DV Green Card. It also demonstrates that you believe your marriage won’t last, which is why you would consider getting the DV GC. That could mean the loss of your current Green Card, since you apparently lied to get it.

Thanks for your reply.my number is 2020AF15xxx. And also I don’t wish my marriage could fail neither did I lie to get it. Only reason I want to take this road is because I’ll get a 10year greencard as I plan on joining the army as my husband but I can’t right because I have a conditional greencard.

Thanks so much for your time and efforts.

Hi, Britt, how are you?
I just saw that they added the social media part and I have doubts about that: in the case of linkedin and facebook what would my usernames be? my mail or my name?
June 2, 2019 at 21:00
Your username. Its self explanatory.

Hello Britt I have a confusion with the part of the surnames of my mother, is that in the form they give last names at birth but I do not know if they refer to their last names as single or to the last names that I had when I was born?

Hello Britt:
The ESTA permission is a Visa? is that this is the only permission I have had to enter the United States
June 13, 2019 at 00:02
ESTA is a visa WAIVER program – meaning no visa.
June 13, 2019 at 00:12
ok perfect, then in the question of if I have a visa in the ds260 should I say no? since I only had the ESTA
June 13, 2019 at 01:24
Unnecessary question….
