Some people are reporting receiving their 2NLs for December interviews. It will take a few hours – and possibly even a couple of days before all have gone out.
It would be GREAT if those that received their 2NLs would add a reply to this message saying when they submitted their DS260. A survey like that helps us understand the processing time for the DS260 and let’s us understand the backlog.
Please add your first submission date, and if you unlocked please add that resubmission date and the data you changed. That is helpful for all.
Now – if you do not get your expected interview, please come back here and read updates to this page to see the feedback I will have received.
***** Update after feedback ******
MANY thanks to those that have given submission date feedback. I have not thanked everyone personally – but I am thankful for the input, which is for the community benefit.
Based on the feedback below, it looks like the majority of 2NLs were sent to cases which were submitted up to early/mid July. Most (not all) June submissions have been handled now. Not all July submissions have been processed.
As I have explained before, cases do not all get processed at the same speed. So your case might have missed the scheduling deadline whilst someone else got a December interview with a slightly later submission. Don’t worry about this – it is normal and does not mean there is a problem.

Post in English please.
All DV2020 cases are held back because of the ban, embassies being closed and so on.

Hola señor Brit, en primer lugar, mil gracias por la ayuda que recibimos de usted. Me pudiera aclarar una duda. El requisito principal para aplicar al programa de visas es tener una educacion de secundaria o su equivalente o tambien 2 años de experiencia. En mi situacion o en mi caso, lo q tengo es un nivel de secundaria no terminada, pero tengo mas de 3 años de experiencia laboral. Usted cree que valla a tener algun problema???

A special thanks to Uncle Brit, I can’t by word express my profound gratitude towards your support at a time I called “state of despair”, but may you be rewarded accordingly. I attended my interview and secured the IV.

Dear Birth,
My interview is scheduled on 31/12/215.. But Still now my husband and I don’t have marriage certificate. We only the paper given by the mosque when our marriage was celebrated. The problem is that my husband went abroad just after our marriage. We didn’t have the time to submit request in the office of the mayor.
We have started the process but we were told that it will take minimum 2 months to get it..
We are thinking to reschedule it 2 months later.
Kindly advise.

So you are not leagally married – then yes you need to delay, get married and then have the interview. You need to take action – you are risking your visa!
