Is it time to start submitting the DS 260 forms for DV 2021?
September 29, 2020 at 04:01
Yes if you want.
September 30, 2020 at 07:05
Cheers here. Mr Brit, could you give us the requirements of green card lottery? Next question is, would you fill in green card form for us, if yes, what kind of things will I be required?

Hello! I am Malika! I want to tell you my story of winning green cards. We played the lottery for 5 years and for 6 years finally our dream has come true! After that we immediately sent the DS-260 but are still waiting for an answer, but no answer no, we are very worried that we may not receive our cherished Cards. We are 44 …. by numbers do you think we will be able to get our Cards? will there be another hearing about us? and can we act as plaintiffs in court? Many thanks in advance what do you think of us !!

Case number?
September 29, 2020 at 03:15
Hi Simon, hope all great. I am dv2020 and kennedy plaintiff dv3.0. I live in Queensland, Australia. Because of Children, my interview is shifted to Mumbai, India bur no way to go there for interview. So, I wrote to kcc requesting kcc to send my case to transfer back to Sydney, Australia but no positive response. They responded that they are prioritizing plaintiffs. Because of this, I later joined dv3.0 lawsuit with the hope to get help.
Having not got good response from kcc, i wrote Mumbai and advised to email to Sydney consulate. Thus, I wrote to Sydney and responded immediately saying that the office would ask kcc to transfer my case to them. Accordingly sent a link to update but not getting open and sydney office also sent me interview date. The problem here is, kcc sent me 2nl on 26 September (Friday) and interview is scheduled on 28 September (Minday) at 9:30 am. After receiving the interview date, i tried to get medical examination appointment on Friday itself because Saturday and sunday is closed. But couldnot get medical appointment. After that, i contacted sydney office to get advice and asked me to write email. I wrote email on Friday itself but not got any response. And also restriction and quarantine rule is applied both in my area and sydney. So, again I wrote email to Consulate for not able to attend interview on Monday but requested to reschedule if in case extension is granted. I have explained reasons like medical checkup appointment, restrictions, fewer flights, etc. i received an email on Monday saying that interview is cancelled for this morning.
Now my doubt is, is extension granted, will my case be granted reschedule please. And like to get further advice on it.
Thanks
September 29, 2020 at 04:00
Oh man it sounds like you really confused everything there. It’s tempting to try and do something but slow down and think before you act.
IF we get an extension there will be time to figure this out, but slow down. Take a breath.
September 29, 2020 at 03:16
Mr Briti
I M IN Group 5 according to Your categorization and stii not received Confirmation Notification.
But once I calked the KCC l last friday ady said “my documents have been processed.and we will send you an E mail.”. But still not received even after sending documents 6 months before. And they are repeating same words everytime. Very much stressful and getting frustrated.
But yesterday I send a n E mail for asking corgradulation Email.( send e mail eight times and called several times).
Then I got Auyo reply saying ” your E mail have been received, But not any attachment” detected with the E mail you sent. This only Auto reply.
What does this means? Pls !!!!
I need your commence. Help me . My cn 2020 As 26***.
September 29, 2020 at 03:58
You should wait to see if we get an extension. Once we have that we can see how many visas we will have and see how we can push cases ahead.
September 29, 2020 at 04:11
Hi Brit,
FYI.
I received my 2NL in last Friday midnight (00.00) and the appointment of interview held in the same day in 12.30. As you know, the requirement of MCU should be have the 2NL. I just finished my MCU yesterday and waiting the further info regarding my reschedule appointment. I replied to embassy to reschedule my appointment in 30 Sept but until now i didnt get any reply from embassy.
The hospital said to me any another dv selectee in Indonesia, the MCU result will be in embassy hand in 9 October but the hospital will try to keep in touch with embassy.
Please advise, is my case and maybe another dv selectee with same case can be get interview which is the MCU results will be their hand pass from 30 Sept.
Thanks in advance.
September 29, 2020 at 04:21
Without an extension September 30th is too late. So – you will now have to hope for the extension.
September 29, 2020 at 04:25
Hi Brit,
Thanks for your advise.
I read in your blog, the Gov. maybe only help for group 1 & group 2. Are we in their cover?
Thanks in advance.
September 29, 2020 at 04:44
That was the government lawyer suggestion. We don’t agree it should only cover those cases.
September 29, 2020 at 04:48
Hi simon, If trump wins the election can he extend the ban before the inauguration day
September 29, 2020 at 05:04
Yes
September 29, 2020 at 05:09
Hi Brit …can Diplomatic person ( for form i134) sponsor us ? . he do not pay taxes. pls help ?
September 29, 2020 at 13:50
No
September 29, 2020 at 05:55
Hi Mr simons
My left thumb lost due to accident, it will badly effect for my DV interview for2021
September 29, 2020 at 13:55
Of course not.
September 29, 2020 at 07:27
Hi Simon,
I was going to do my DS-260 but the website said the case number does not match their record. Should I just wait ?
September 29, 2020 at 13:58
No – you should figure out what you are doing wrong.
September 30, 2020 at 00:10
Hi Mr Simon
My police certificate’s expiration date is on 23/11/2020 and I live now in Saudi Arabia (originally from Bosnia-herzegovina)
But I didn’t visit my country during last year, do I need a new one from Bosnia or only from Saudi Arabia?
Thank you
September 30, 2020 at 03:24
Police certificates are accepted up to 1 year old.
September 29, 2020 at 07:37
Hi simon, Thanks to God and thanks to your kind amazing support.I got my visa with annotation not to travel before dec.31st. What would happen if I go during the ban? Thanks a lot again.
September 29, 2020 at 14:02
Well many have a confusing annotation, and for those people I have suggested they could try entering, but if your annotation is very clear I would not attempt it.
September 29, 2020 at 11:15
Dear Brit,
I am a 2020 DV (2020AS14xxx) winner and I went to the interview on 21st of Sep. Now my CEAC status is as visa issued. But embassy did not instructed on how to collect my passport and the package. My question is , Do we need to collect the passport and the package before 30th of September ? Or that deadline is not considered for passport collection.
September 29, 2020 at 14:06
deadline is not considered for passport collection
September 29, 2020 at 13:00
Dear Brit,
Thank you so much for all your efforts and hard work for us, very grateful. I belong to group three and I’m very hopeful for an ‘extension’.
My passport that I used for my ds260 expires in April 2021. Assuming I get my interview rescheduled in October 2020, should I get a new passport and attach to this one that expires in April 2021 and take to the interview? I’m asking because by October 2020 it will be 6months to the expiration of my passport. If I have a new passport will it affect me? Do I need to edit my ds260 or I can just attach my new passport to my current one when going to the interview?
September 29, 2020 at 14:07
Get a new passport and take both old and new to the interview.
September 29, 2020 at 13:05
Mr. Britsimon,
I want to know will those cases whose numbers are included in Visa Bulletin for September 2020 have interview first before those listed in the November 2020?
OR will both be interview during the same month or time since indeed they current?
How does it work?
September visa bulletin listed case numbers in January 2021 and then November ones in February 2021?
Please enlighten me on this concern.
Thanks
September 29, 2020 at 14:09
Once the case numbers are current, ANY case number under that number is treated the same as every other case number under the VB number.
September 29, 2020 at 14:01
Hi Simon,
I emailed the embassy in my country and asked them whether they can request my documents from KCC so that I can finally get my documents processed and be scheduled for an interview.
This is their response:
“ Unfortunately, the last day to have a medical examination done in time to issue you a DV here in Frankfurt was Monday, September 28. We have nevertheless requested your file from KCC. If, by chance, you had a medical examination performed here (or elsewhere), we could accommodate you for an interview here tomorrow, September 30.
If you have not had a medical examination done, then we will be unable to process your case to completion.”
What should I do now? I obviously haven’t had my medical done yet and the embassy is in a city 4 hours from where I live. Even if I get an appointment tomorrow I wouldn’t be able to get there on time (unless it’s scheduled in the evening). What do you suggest to do?
September 29, 2020 at 16:28
Something really crazy happened as I just got scheduled for an interview tomorrow morning. I now have to travel to the city the embassy is at. The appointment is scheduled for 7:30am even though the embassy opens at 8.00am according to google. I hope this is no fraud as they haven’t told me whether it’s a problem that I haven’t done my medicals yet
September 29, 2020 at 18:47
Hi Simon, sorry for double posting but what would you do in my case? I don’t have the medicals done yet.
September 29, 2020 at 18:47
You must be able to get the medical done, and get the report to the embassy fast – have you called the physician?
September 29, 2020 at 18:53
No it’s 9pm where I live and I got scheduled at 6.15pm – all doctors offices are closed here by 6. Should I email them and ask for rescheduling my appointment? It’s connected with a big risk to me
September 29, 2020 at 19:02
No don’t change your appointment. You need to take your chance. So – discuss it with the embassy in the morning.
September 29, 2020 at 19:28
But in the email from my first post they clearly stated that they can’t proceed my case if I don’t have my medicals done yet. Let’s assume we get the extension: would it me a big deal if I have rescheduled the appointment? Getting the info 13 hours before is really not enough especially when living in a complete different region of the country
September 29, 2020 at 19:54
Why gamble on getting the extension. The embassy know what they asked. They are offering a chance. Stop procrastinating.
September 30, 2020 at 05:03
Hi Simon could you please delete these comments? It doesn’t feel right having the email posted here and it doesn’t feel safe for me anymore. Thanks for answering the questions though.
September 30, 2020 at 05:05
Hi Simon,
Could you please do me a favor and delete my question again? It doesn’t feel safe and right anymore to have the copy of the email posted. Thank you for answering my questions tough.
September 29, 2020 at 14:05
hi simon am a DV2020 winner ..already done with my interview and visa status check says its issued.
my dilemma is; after i get my visa
1. can i get married?
2. will i be able to file for my spouse to come to the us?
3. will this lead me to be deported?
September 29, 2020 at 19:06
Why on earth did you not get married before the process? That would have been easier.
1. Yes
2. Later, yes. It takes 2 years.
3. No
September 29, 2020 at 14:05
Mr Brit
I’m in Group 5 DV 2020 AS.
Today I called KCC to make sure at least they have received my documents.
The lady who answered me said “they have not received my documents. “.
I am very much sure that I sent my documents twice and I called several times to KCC
. Every time they said “we will send you an E mail. Never said they have not received my documents. Once I submitted my documents I got auto reply email with document attachments.
I called last friday too . The lady from KCC said they have processed my documents. But today the lady said totally different thing. ..
Its verymuch stressful for me.
I’m very much sure I sent my documents correctly.
Pls what shall I do if there is an extention happens?
September 29, 2020 at 14:07
My fiance is a DV2020 named plaintiff.
She and her derivative received their Visas today.
There is of course an annotation saying “Subject to PP10014”
My question is
1. IF we meet up in a neutral country (The Bahamas) and get married will she then be able to enter the USA under the Spouse of American Citizen exception?
2. If so, will her derivative also be able to enter?
3. If you are unsure of the answer, is there any danger in trying to do this?
Regards
September 29, 2020 at 14:27
Hi Brit!! Hope you are doing well. Thank you for everything you do for us.
I had a question, I really hope for a positive answer from you.
I had just attended my interview last week Monday on the 21st, they put me on AP and said I had to submit additional documents and also get a new medical exam, which I swiftly did and had the results sent to them, together with the additional documents. I also sent my passport back to them. After doing that, when logging in to my CEAC status check it would show “REFUSED”, but today it changed from that to saying “READY”.
Does this mean I got the Visa?? I’m from Nairobi Kenya by the way. Hehe.
Thanks…
September 29, 2020 at 15:32
Congrats….very soon it will change to ISSUED and be shipped via DHL to where you chose….
I am also in Nairobi Kenya…waiting for the Proclamation to end……What is you email address i can reach..?
September 29, 2020 at 18:54
Heyy. Thanks for the information!
You can reach me at: [email protected]
September 29, 2020 at 18:20
You need to hold the celebration until you see issued.
September 29, 2020 at 15:17
Hi Brit, I am the winner of DV2021 and I have 3 beneficiaries. We would like to fill the ds260 form. How do we do that ?Do I fill my form first as the principal and submit it then the other 3 people fill theirs and submit?After submitting the form as principal winner, is it not that KCC locks the case ,so how will the other 3 fill theirs and submitt since the case is locked?
September 29, 2020 at 18:37
You prepare all the forms yourself and submit them all within a few minutes of each other.
September 29, 2020 at 15:47
Hello simon ,Hope you doing well .
During the submission of my Ds-260 , I mentioned my status As a student, indeed I am .
My question is if the ban is extended or not, do you consider this as an advantage as I do not pose any risks to the labor market ?
Regards!
September 29, 2020 at 18:40
No. The ban has nothing to do with what it says it is about.
September 29, 2020 at 15:57
Does the unlock of Ds260 form cause the negative impact to dv visa of does it affect the candidate or cancel the dv
September 29, 2020 at 18:41
It’s a good thing. A correct form is better than an incorrect one.
September 29, 2020 at 16:01
It’s already been more than 3 weeks of submission of additional document there is no mail for completed of additional document and i have unlock the ds260 form before submission does it affect my process of dv document review why is my document review is late or my unlock process affect the process so there is no more mail
September 29, 2020 at 18:42
Patience!
September 29, 2020 at 16:16
Dear Sir,
My visa was granted, due to the courtesy of tremendous effort of you, DV2020 Selectees forum members Sussie, Simonsmom, Aidy and Curtis Morrison. I will publish the story of my experience within next few days.
I have two more questions.
01. I’m not married. can i sponsor my parents to obtain a Green card, if yes how long will take? because i need them here too.
02. My brother was seeking F1 status to do his masters in a US university can i sponsor him? do you know any good forum to get support like you? 🙂
September 29, 2020 at 18:45
1. No. You would have to become a citizen first (takes 5 years)
2. No. Again you can only do that as a citizen, then that process is much longer than 5 years.
September 29, 2020 at 16:21
Hi Britt,
I wrote to KCC following e-mail.
I am a 2021 Green Card Lottery winner and have two other dependents with me. However one of them, my daughter is no longer 21 and not my dependent anymore. Even though I submitted and sent both my and my another (my wife) dependents applications, I didn’t file any applications for my daughter. However, my daughter is still on my homepage with a status “Application not completed”.
Will this affect my and the other dependent’s green card application even though we submitted our own?
And I received from the KCC the below answer:
“Thank you for your inquiry.
KCC is unable to withdraw your Electronic Entry, however, your case will not continue processing if documents are not received.”
1-In that case should I add my daugher application and submit to KCC?
2-In fact, previously you said do not add her info and submit. And, I am confused about what to do?
3-Additionally, I am worried that ıf I add and submit her data, she would be refused at embassy and this result will be causing her future visa applications to be declined. Therefore, what is your view about the above KCC answer?
Thanks
September 29, 2020 at 18:47
I already told you. You need to tell KCC that you will not be submitting her DS260 because she has aged out.
September 29, 2020 at 16:39
Hi Simon
For the pre clearance in some airports. Do I need to travel to activate green card? Or pre clearance is enough
Thanks
September 29, 2020 at 18:48
You need to travel to enter the USA
September 30, 2020 at 00:00
But if I am doing all the paper work before I tavel, I understood that when I land in the USA, i basically exit the airport without any stamping? So why do I need to travel then?
September 30, 2020 at 03:23
The law.
September 29, 2020 at 16:57
Dear Brit,
Just wanted to thank you for all the good work your doing and helping other people.
I learned through you blog for CM case, and i decided to join, i was named plaintiff from first case and today me and my family received our visas.
CN 53K
September 29, 2020 at 18:50
Fantastic!
September 29, 2020 at 17:04
Hello Brit,
Thank you for your ongoing support! me and my family are 2021 winners with case number AS11xxx and i am the main applicant. I’ve currently resigned from my job and i have overall 8 years of experience, my question is should i unlock the DS 260 form and edit the “Present Employer” section? knowing that i don’t have another job lined up so i will be unemployed starting from October 23.
Best Regards,
September 29, 2020 at 18:57
No need. If you have a reason to unlock the form over the coming months you can correct it then, otherwise it was accurate as of your submission.
September 29, 2020 at 17:22
Good morning sir, I am DV 2021 winner
AS11xxx
Thank you Sir for your advice to be patient about waiting for the email of required document,
Finally I received this email today,
I submitted my DS 260 on 11 June 2020,
Received on 29/09/2020
Only to give hope for the winners, be patient this is the best phrase for Mr Simon, thank you Sir
September 29, 2020 at 17:36
I have a higher diploma with 10 years consecutively. 2010-2020 . My question is how could i select my educational qualification in DV lottery. Please help
September 29, 2020 at 18:59
10 years of education and you don’t know which option to chose from a short list???
Use some judgement.
September 29, 2020 at 19:05
yes mr. Brit exactly. Can you tell me about it. Which option should I chose
September 29, 2020 at 18:09
Hi Brit, I’m 2020eu4xxxx case number (group 5)..after trying to reach KCC several time, I managed to talk to someone today..even tho I filled my ds260 form in April, and unlocked it to do some changes in beginning of may, and sent my documents right after and received an automated email confirmation that they got my docs, but the person I talked to told me they didn’t process my ds form at all..they didn’t even started working on it. And she said they don’t have my docs. I’m in a dv 3.0 plaintiff and hoping to get some good news..if they didn’t start working on that form for 4 months, should I even send my documents again?Aany advice from your side?Thank you in advance.
September 29, 2020 at 19:00
Wait and see if we get an extension.
September 29, 2020 at 19:42
Thank you, makes sense. But, it’s just hard being in the USA, visiting my family and being in this situation. I’m hoping for the best possible outcome. Thank you so much for your help!
September 29, 2020 at 18:20
Good day Sir,
Sorry for my kind reminder I would appreciate if you could reply to my question regarding the documents. Asked a couple of days earlier ( “AF71XXX” )
Many thanks in advance for your time and support.
September 29, 2020 at 19:05

September 29, 2020 at 20:04
Thank you sir, true was at the end of my patience but I was calm and tried to be nice. I watched your video and then had this questiont, I didn’t find a clear answer so I pasted a question here and after few days I called KCC. I am talking about the one before, please find below repeated:
My Situation:
-AF71XXX
-Docs sent 10/2019 but KCC says not received, they told me this in June 2020 after several updates request!! (Docs translated to EN except police certificate (PL) why : interview location PL.
-Interview location changed to Algiers as it is more safe and this in 01/2020.
– Docs resend 06/2020: EN translation except for Polish police certificate(PL)
(**) KCC said right now my documents are being processed
Questions :
1- It been more a year already, should I renew all my documents and send them again?
(***) Algerian Police certificate is valid only for 3 months.
2-should I translate my Polish Police certificate and send it again to KCC ? Or I can just bring the translated doc to the interview? (Still have hope:) ).
Sorry Sir for taking more of your precious time.
Thank you in advance.
September 29, 2020 at 21:08
Unless we get the extension, there is nothing more to do. Wait until we know the terms of the extension.
September 29, 2020 at 21:43
Hello Brit I am the same guy who always talk about Liberia embassy. Again since the 4 of September up to now when we I call the embassy about my case they will always tell me that we close and can’t do anything not a single person from Liberia will tell you that the embassy sent they e-mail. Now God is fighting for us. God first you Second when a come to us being successful in this war, now we hopping and praying for an extension whan it successful can you please help us again but pressure on the judge to put pressure on Liberia embassy to call us sooner for interview ? I am in group 3. We are not many in my country that awaiting for an interview sir. Plz plz plz …..
September 29, 2020 at 22:32
As I have answered before, we need an extension. If we get an extension you might be able to get something from Liberia embassy or travel somewhere else.
September 29, 2020 at 18:55
1. No. There is no need or advantage in doing so. Remember, everything is based on your case number so rushing your documents makes no difference to getting an interview.
2. Wait a few weeks and see if they ask you for documents.
Just as a matter of interest and concern. There is no age limit on the lottery, but you will not be entitled to a US pension and healthcare is crazy expensive. Are you wealthy enough that this will not be a concern?
September 29, 2020 at 21:41
I think I heard about someone in their early 60s. But some 70 year old people are younger and more adventurous than 60 year olds – right – so the number is not important in itself.
September 29, 2020 at 19:13
Hi Brit,
My CEAC status header shows issued but the text has the following AP message.
“Your visa case is currently undergoing necessary administrative processing. This processing can take several weeks. As the officer told you in the interview, if further information is needed, you will be contacted. If your visa application is approved when administrative processing is finished, you will receive notification to collect the passport with the visa from the Loomis branch you selected when you booked your appointment.”
Is this a problem?
September 29, 2020 at 19:52
No.
September 29, 2020 at 20:01
Thank you very much Brit. I was just concerned as I have not received the courier pickup message yet.
September 29, 2020 at 19:28
Hello sir I am the dv winner of 2021 I am from Nepal now I am in Kuwait my question is “when I fill D’s 260 I put interview location is Kuwait but now I have to change the interview location from Kuwait to Nepal because I am leaving Kuwait soon so, can I unlock the ds 260 but my number is already came in visa bulletin and my 2nd question is ” I already make one police clearance from Kuwait and submitted when kcc request for support documents so,I am leaving Kuwait soon should I need to make other police clearance in Kuwait for interview or that police clearance will be valid ” I am waiting for your positive result .
Thank you!
Respectfully
September 29, 2020 at 19:53
1. You have to unlock, change your address, and then ask KCC to change the location.
2. No
September 30, 2020 at 02:29
Thank you so much sir “so my kuwait police clearance is good until interview but I have to make new police clearance from Nepal when I go back that is true statement sir”
September 29, 2020 at 22:28
Good evening sir.
Dv 2021 selectee here. My spouse recently got done with her bachelors degree program but the university is yet to organise the graduation ceremony, hence, she hasn’t received her certificate yet. We anticipate that by the time we’re called for interview, she might get her certificate.
1. I hope we can indicate on her DS-260 that she has Bachelors degree.
2. After submitting my DS-260 as principal applicant, approximately how long delay time is allowed before submitting that of the derivative?
Your effort is indeed transforming lives and shaping destinies around the world. We thank you.
September 29, 2020 at 22:41
1. she should get attestation from the school now whiles she wait for the graduation, the principal applicant is what matter most
2.I think Brit has already answer a question like this, there need having intervals for submission.
September 29, 2020 at 22:46
there is no need having intervals in submission, submit all at the same time.*
September 29, 2020 at 23:05
Hi Simone
I have received email from KCC requesting documents ( 2021AS4xxx)and send it 8 weeks ago but did not receive ready to schedule email yet, I sent KCC email and their reply:
Thank you for your inquiry.
Your DS-260 has been processed. You should have received, or will soon receive, an email from the Kentucky Consular Center giving you instructions to complete in order for your case to continue processing. Please follow the instructions in the email. Interviews are scheduled numerically based on case numbers that have completed processing. Please refer to the visa bulletin at travel.state.gov to locate the current numbers being processed. This bulletin is updated after the 15th day of each month. Once an interview date has been scheduled, you will receive notification via email to check dvlottery.state.gov.
In order for the Kentucky Consular Center to assist with inquiries regarding a specific Diversity Visa (DV) case, you must provide the Principal Applicant’s full name, complete case number, and date of birth in the following format (MMDDYYYY) as entered on the original entry. Please remember that the Kentucky Consular Center does not have the authority to tell you whether or not your specific case will be disqualified. Only a consular officer can do that at the time of your visa interview. Do not send any paper documents to the Kentucky Consular Center.
Can you please help one in below:
1.I am not really sure what does this email mean, did they receive my documents?!
2.What is way to confirm that they receive the documents?!
3. If they did not receive my documents what should I do ?! Can I send my documents again ?!
4.Sending the documents multiple times will effect my application?!
Thank you in advance.

Hey everyone. I just feel that there may be someone out there who will need to hear this.
I’m a DV2020 and my family and I have done our interview and received our visas 15 Sept.
We know that there are still many of our DV2020 friends out there who are still yet to be interviewed, those who are still struggling to get their medicals done in time, those who have to travel to another location for their interviews etc. We want to let you know that we continue to pray for you all at this difficult time, we know how frustrating this whole year has been for us. But we want you all to know that we are here for you.
Also, BIG THANKS to Brit Simon for your never ending support, we know many of us wouldn’t have made it this far if it wasn’t for you and the lawyers who are tirelessly working for us behind the scenes. Thank You All Very Much!
Not forgetting our DV2021 selectees who have been patient with us, we know the past few weeks have all been about DV2020 and we just like to thank you for your consideration and understanding on us getting the chance we deserve. We hope that you all get your documents ready because passing the interview is all about being Over Prepared and Truthful, so we wish you Goodluck!
We know our fight isn’t over yet because there’s still a ban in place. But we continue to hope and pray for good days ahead. We believe that there is a light at the end of the tunnel and that Good Things Happens to those who Wait.
Regards

Dear Mr. Brit,
I wish to say thank you for all you have been doing for all DV winners and for me a DV 2020 winner in particular. Since I started following you in late 2019, I have learned a lot from you in this process infact you are my Oracle! At some point hope was almost gone but each time I turn to you for a piece of advice you are always available. My interview was cancelled in March 2020 and on September 10th 2020 I received a message from the embassy to appear for interview on Monday 14th September. I attended the medical and was given a seal letter to take to the embassy, after the interview I was told to bring the medical results and others before 09/30/2020. While waiting for the medical results from the doctor I checked my status and it was REFUSED my fear increase and my BP was high but I turn to you and asked and as usual you gave a comforting respond which calmed me and gave me hopes again. On 09/28/2020 I submitted the medical results and the evening, I checked my case and it was updated to AP, on 09/29/2020 in the evening I checked and behold I saw the big ISSUED spelled there. It has not been easy I have nothing to give you now and I will not promise you but I and my family wish to say THANK YOU FOR GUIDING US THROUGH. I shall come back with more details on what I and family have gone through this process on the interview experience page..
GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY
