I’m seeing several cases of 2NLs being sent – this is what I mentioned on my live a couple of days ago. Now just remember the 2NLs sent today will not be the only ones for May – there will be some more sent before the end of the month.

Hello Simon!
I hope you are fine!
My friend I told one day that he scared because he won without passport got his 2NL on May 3rd for interview on April 6th at 10:30.
What can you tell us please?
March 21, 2021 at 5:11 pm
He is right to be scared if he didn’t provide a passport. But this is the first year we have seen this rule tested – so I don’t know what the outcome will be. It’s also interesting to me that he go scheduled at all.
March 21, 2021 at 10:09 pm

Hello Brit!
When will be the process of anunciato case? We don’t have any news from them now.
March 24, 2021 at 5:05 am
I posted a new video about that this morning.
March 22, 2021 at 11:53 pm
Hi Brit, please have you heard of anyone who has received a positive response after submitting docs though it hasn’t been requested by KCC?
Thank you
March 24, 2021 at 5:21 am
Yes
March 23, 2021 at 2:42 am

I had a child after i had entered the dv lottery 2021 with my wife,i mentioned her in my ds260 but indicated that she was not immigrating with us but ,my daughter’s name has been included on the interview letter ,Please sir , do should i go ahead and make her medicals and take her to the interview or leave her out as she was not in my initial dv entry? Help me sir.
March 24, 2021 at 5:33 am
You do not have to take her to the interview if she is not going to be on your DV case.
March 24, 2021 at 6:33 am
Sir, i mean that her name has been included as a beneficiary on my 2nl interview letter, meanwhile i only mentioned her birth in ds260 but i didnt put her in the initial entry. Please what do i do as she has been added on my interview letter ?
March 25, 2021 at 8:06 pm
If you want to to emigrate, add a DS260 for her and take her for the interview. If you DON’T want her to emigrate, then do neither of those things.
April 23, 2021 at 10:32 pm
Hi sir, the consular officer asked me to add a ds260 for my daughter i told you about last month sir, but tell me how i can make her own ds260 please. They have re-opened my ds260 but i still cant see where to add her ds260. Please help me
March 23, 2021 at 7:52 pm
If these new lawsuits from Kuck and Morrison get KCC and embassies to work for their plaintiffs, will they ONLY work for the plaintiffs or will they prioritize them but also work on other selectees as well?
March 24, 2021 at 5:49 am
It is for plaintiffs.
March 24, 2021 at 6:13 am
Hello Brit.
Please would you recommend someone with case number 2021AF3K Who has received his confirmation letter ( ready to be scheduled) since october 2020 with his country which started interviewing 2021 DV cases to join the latest lawsuit before the deadline ?
March 25, 2021 at 8:04 pm
Not really.
April 23, 2021 at 10:21 pm
Hi sir, I really need your help. I attended my interview on 20th April ,everything went well so far but the consular officer asked me to go make a ds260 for my child and include her with me . My problem is that since then I have tried making the ds260 for her to no avail. With your expertise sir, what should I do please? I have checked but I haven’t found where to do her own ds260
April 24, 2021 at 2:47 pm
Log in to your DS260 page, and right at the beginning, where your DS260 shows “completed” there might be a button with “add applicant”. If not, ask the embassy.
April 25, 2021 at 7:42 am
Thanks sir, i have done and checked as you said but i could’nt see the “ADD BUTTON” at the beginning of my ds260 to add another applicant (my daughter). So far i have emailed the embassy but they said maybe i should check if i filled the baby’s information in my own ds260 form, that i already did too but i have not seen where to create the baby’s ds260. The consular officer told me and my wife that our documents have been checked and they are ok but we should bring the baby’s medicals and fill her ds260. .Please sir advice me because am planning to book my next appointment tomorrow.
April 25, 2021 at 6:22 pm
It may be that the embassy or KCC has to unlock your DS260 to make the add applicant button appear. Contact the embassy and KCC.
April 25, 2021 at 7:48 am
Sir please will it be advisable if i go to the embassy on my next appointment and declare that i may no longer go with the baby since i cant find where to filled her own ds260 form? Hope that move wouldn’t cost me my visa chances sir. I really need your help sir.
April 25, 2021 at 6:22 pm
That would be a very silly idea.
March 24, 2021 at 8:15 am
Hello Simon!
You said there won’t be much time to process all the 55 thousand visas for dv2021.
So It’s not sure the dv2021 will be extended?
March 25, 2021 at 8:12 pm
Of course it’s not sure.
March 24, 2021 at 9:01 am
At the beginning, you said that the anunciato case covered all dv2021 as plaintiffs.
Now, we don’t understand the mandamus litigation is doing now.
1-It will only help plaintiffs that will pay 1500$ to 2000$?
They say even we have big case numbers, we can be beneficiary of this litigation though we don’t know all cases will go current soon.
2- It is necessary for an african with a high case number and a country doing interviews to be part of this litigation?
Please answer these questions, we are anxious.
March 25, 2021 at 8:18 pm
1. It will only be for named plaintiffs, yes.
2. The lawyers are choosing to believe what was said by “Charlie” recently. I think there is a significant risk that high case numbers will not become current, but no one can know for sure at this time. So – you have to decide whether to join the lawsuit or not. I cannot tell you what to do.

Dear Brit;
I have got a question, is a bank account in another country valid to show our financial situation, I’m Moroccon residing in Turkey (interview should also be in Turkey) and I want to show my Moroccan bank statement where I have my savings, is it acceptable?
March 26, 2021 at 12:04 am
Possibly.
March 25, 2021 at 9:11 pm
Hello BritSimon..
Greetings to you!
Regarding the document naming format to send to KCC:
My surname is BAZA,My name is TEWODROS. and Middle name is TEMEDE
Since, The document naming should include full name of applicant what if I write like this?

March 26, 2021 at 12:11 am
Yes

Hi BritSimon,
I am a DV2021 winner but I am worried about one thing, When I checked the CEAC Data for previous years I didn’t see a case number who got visa issued for case number > 60000 in Africa region. Is there anyone you know who got a visa with case number 60,000 and above in Africa region?
March 27, 2021 at 9:06 pm
Previous years are totally different.
April 9, 2021 at 1:36 am
Is there anyone you know who got a visa with case number 60,000 and above in Africa region?
April 9, 2021 at 1:39 am
In the previous years ?
April 9, 2021 at 3:39 am
In previous years? Yes. But that is totally irrelevant to this year.
March 29, 2021 at 11:36 am
Hello,
Finally it was so close for me. I had my interview scheduled for beginning of April by KCC but I just received today e-mail from Romanian embassy that because of COVID they had to cancel my interview.
Is anything that I need to do from my side? Inform KCC? Or I should stay and wait 🙂 This is a never ending nightmare.
Thank you all for your help
March 30, 2021 at 8:58 pm
You can wait, or join one of the lawsuits.

Hi Brit!
Happy Easter!
Just wondering if you know if the embassy in New Zealand is taking interviews?
My number is current and I received the “all documents received, ready for scheduling” email in August last year.
I know patience is a virtue with this DV process but just wondering if there’s anything else I should be doing to help the process along.
Cheers
April 2, 2021 at 1:21 am
Caelyn,
People are receiving for Auckland embassy. What is your number? People bellow 700 have received interviews, so far haven’t heard anyone above that. Just need more patience as there is nothing you can do.

I am from DV2020, 2020AS27xxx, my police cert. expired last March, so my question is “I should renew and resend the whole docs. package again for the third time (I sent them twice last year) before Gomez’s final judgement?” I have already watched your valuable submission tips, and was wondering if I could resend my documents. Thank you in advance.
April 5, 2021 at 2:45 pm
I have received your response on April 5, 2021 at 2:39 pm from the other post. Thank you for your reply and God bless you, Britsimon. My apologies for the duplicate question.
April 6, 2021 at 6:56 am
Hello mr Simon thank for keeping us updating .
My case number is 2021EU29XX and my document has been received by June 2020. And i contacted KCC and got respond my case number is current. But I am checking this somebody case number over than me like 4000 have scheduled his interview. What base of they are scheduling interview ? And do you know when can I except mine ? Can you maybe tell me am i very close to receive 2nl letter soon maybe this month ?
And lastly do you know Tbilisi Georgie is currently scheduling interviews ? Because mine I picked there.
Thank you so much advance please respond
April 6, 2021 at 4:49 pm
The answer to your last question is the important one. If they are not accepting interviews, then KCC won’t schedule them. Contact the embassy and ask them.
April 7, 2021 at 1:52 am

April 9, 2021 at 6:37 am
Save dv2021 winners! Save them!
Interviews are very very very slow. Motionless in most areas .
We want what is said about dv winners to happen practically. That is to say 55k of issued visas.
We Really need improvement.
April 9, 2021 at 2:19 pm
Hello Britsimon, finally Nairobi Embassy received 2NLs for May interviews yesterday. Dozens of people up to Case number 2500 have received.
Am case Number 2121AF..500 range but yet to receive 2NL.
Submitted docs back in August, & got Congratulations, ready for scheduling the same month.
What could be the problem with my case having missed 2nL and am very low?
Thanks
April 9, 2021 at 3:12 pm
There are many cases to schedule, so you will have to remain patient.
April 12, 2021 at 4:25 am
Hello Sir
My Case number is 2021AS1100 Line

Still waiting patiently as no option
What is your advice ? Shall write to the KCC or any steps you advice ?
April 14, 2021 at 4:18 am
Have you received the confirmation that you are ready to be scheduled?
April 15, 2021 at 8:54 am
Yes I have received confirmation Email in Oct 14 , 2020
so shall I take any step or just wait ?
May be I can try to get an interview in India .Possible ?
April 18, 2021 at 6:47 pm
You can check if the Indian embassy is scheduling.
April 12, 2021 at 5:41 pm
Hello Brit,
I am from Cameroon with case number 2021AF23831. The visa bulletin shows that my case will be current in May. I am single and I don’t have a child. My DS 260 form was submitted in August last year. On the confirmation page which I recieved after submitting the DS 260 form, it states that I don’t have to send any documents to the KCC that I should prepare the documents and keep which I will take to the embassy on the day of my interview and i have not recieved any email from the KCC requesting for documents. I keep on seeing you telling people to send documents if they have not sent, please I need your help now because I am confuse if I am to send the documents or not.
April 14, 2021 at 4:36 am
I have said everyone should send the documents. Are you part of the group of “everyone”?
April 12, 2021 at 10:16 pm
Dear Brit,
I need to ask you something …
what is your opinion if the number of visas issued for the dv lottery program at the official deadline is lower than expected. What does the law provide ??? (I mean in a normal situation with no prohibitions or other things,
for example..
July / August 2021, 80% of embassies return to normality and the number of visas issued = 2%)
Thank you
April 14, 2021 at 5:12 am
The law does not require some sort of minimum number of visas to be issued.
April 14, 2021 at 6:26 am
….on the DV program guidelines it says that:
***It is also possible that some visas remain available after all initially selected applicants are reviewed. In this case, additional applicants are selected later. For this reason, applicants who were not initially selected in the lottery should keep checking their status online periodically, until the end of the respective fiscal year. ****
And this year is a lot of visas thay remain aviable at the end of the fiscal year.
Do you think it could happen ??? That the END of the dv 2021 can be extended OVER 09.30.2021???
Or this is not the same situation😢😢
Thaks alot for yor time
April 15, 2021 at 3:08 am
You are misunderstanding what that is about. It is talking about adding selectees (not visas, not extra time)- which would have happened LAST September/October, but of course that only happens when a year is underselected, so not DV2021.
April 13, 2021 at 11:06 pm
Simon, do you happen to know how long it takes since the “ready for interview” email until the interview is scheduled, on average/ballpark? I see on Twitter that a lot of people got the documents ready today, seems like KCC might be catching up?
April 14, 2021 at 5:27 am
There is no “usually” at the moment.
April 14, 2021 at 5:30 am
I understand, but what is the trend we have been seeing this year? I’m only asking because you get input from tons of people and I was wondering if KCC is most doing this for show but then benching the interviews, or if it takes days, or maybe weeks? Like what’s happening for those that you know of that have been scheduled given the input you get in such a big platform?
And, also, how has it been in previous years?
Thank you for the help and input, appreciated.
April 14, 2021 at 5:33 am
Again, there is no typical. About half the embassies are scheduling, others aren’t. 2NLs are going out on days other than the normal batches, but the volume of interviews is nothing like normal. Again NO USUAL.
April 15, 2021 at 3:37 pm
Hello my comrades in the waiting!
Is the visa bulletin for june interview out?
Today is on the 15th ! I can’t wait for my number to be part of the visa bulletin for june. For how long shall we keep waiting?
April 15, 2021 at 3:53 pm
It’s such a painful wait. Things are moving sooo slowly. The visa bulletin is not out yet. We are expecting 2NLs to arrive today hopefully…
April 15, 2021 at 3:53 pm
Me too I can’t wait
April 20, 2021 at 3:20 pm
Thank you Brit. My brother had an interview today for AF11000. 2 weeks ago, he went to get a police clearance from Dubai where he lives and was taken by the police to jail for a house rent case he didn’t know he had. Obviously, he has missed the interview. What can be done to get a new interview date?
Secondly, if he pays the accumulated 2 years rents the landlord is asking for, do you know if the case will affect his police clearance certificate and consequently his Visa issuance?
Thanks in Advance again
April 20, 2021 at 8:46 pm
He should contact the embassy to see if they will reschedule.
I don’t know whether that will affect his police record or not.
April 21, 2021 at 2:47 am
Hello Simon,
First I want to thank you for the good work you are doing for DV family. I have really learnt alot from you.
You said that this year DV2021 will be under issued because KCC will not be able to process most cases.
Is the reverse true? That all cases that have been processed are likely to be interviewed?
Thanks!
April 21, 2021 at 4:39 pm
As of today 50 embassies (more than 1/3) have not accepted even one interview, so no the reverse cannot be true.
April 24, 2021 at 8:32 am
Good evening sir, thank you for the help that you render to the DV lottery winners. Please help me with the link of the video where we can check how far our case is whether its at NVC or transit. Thank you
