Great to hear that! Wishing you all good luck with your move to the US.

 

Yes, DV interview letters are going out for April interviews right now and in fact some embassies have even contacted people and set up appointments as soon as next week! so it’s great to see they are moving.

Dear 

 

I'm the DV2020 visaholders . My visa expiration date is 3/10 and the visa will be invalid. 

So although the expiration date is March 10th, because Judge Mehta's recent order, I can still enter the country after the expiration date?

Really appreciate your assistance!

You got your visa s a result of the Gomez case, correct? Then yes, but go as soon as you can, DoS warns this could change with short notice. I would also suggest you print the link below and get to the airport early, don’t be surprised if airline officials don’t know this exception and you need to get supervisors etc involved when checking in.

Individuals whose DV-2020 visas have expired may not be issued replacement visas; however, individuals who received diversity visas in 2020 as a result of orders in the court case Gomez v. Trump may travel to the United States on an expired visa as the court ordered the government to treat these visas as though they were issued on the date P.P. 10014 was rescinded. The court did not specify for how long the visas would be considered valid.   Additionally, it may be possible that the court order could be changed or modified in some important respect.  Therefore, applicants wishing to benefit from the order are encouraged to travel as soon as practicable as the order could change.
