Hi Simon I am from Ethiopia I fill DV 2021 and I selected, when I fill DV entry I have no passport and I select an option of Passport Exemption: from that I am not required to submit passport information because I am:
Unable to obtain a passport, and have received an individual waiver of the passport requirement by the Secretary of Homeland Security or Secretary of State. when I fill SD-260 with passport requirement because I have got it passport from my country my question is I understand that if it is later determined I am not exempt from the passport requirement, I may be disqualified from the Diversity Visa program. What type of document I need to get?
Because Ethiopia was not giving passport to any citizen at that time .. unless you have a reason explaining that you need a passport now from any source..our govt will not issue passport to every individual.
hello brit, my case number is 2021SA000004xx, i have received the ready for scheduling email but not the interview email, so i wrote to KCC and the replied textually “Thank you for your inquiry.
Scheduling for the DV 2021 program year has not yet begun. Please monitor Travel.State.gov for updates. Selectees will be notified by an email to the address they provided to check the Entrant Status Check (ESC) website as soon as an interview is scheduled. ” that email was on December 9th, do you know when will they start scheduling?

Well there is probably no document you can get. Why did you think you were exempt from the passport requirement?

I don’t think that reason will be treated as valid. But wait and see how the passport rule is handled.
