Inmigración: Perdi mi numero de confirmacion de la DV-2012 como hago ahora para verificar si gane?

Si llegó a este articulo buscando que hacer luego de haber sido seleccionado en la Lotería de Visas Americanas DV-2013, (resultados disponibles a partir del 1ro de Mayo 2012) entonces preferiblemente vaya  al articulo

  Salí seleccionado en la Lotería de Visas DV-2013, ahora que hago?
Nota: Mayo 17, 2012
Lamentablemente a pesar que durante un periodo de la DV 2012 (Mayo 2011 -Julio 2011) algunos participantes recibieron un correo para notificarles su numero de confirmacion, a partir de Octubre 2011, durante la fase de inscripcion de la DV-2013 se le informo a todos los participantes que la unica manera de confirmar si la persona salio seleccionada era con el numero de confirmacion emitido al final del proceso de inscripcion y que NO HABRA OTRA MANERA de confirmar si salio seleccionado o no. Si extravio el numero de confirmacion lamentablemente no tendra manera de verificar si salio favorecido o no en la Loteria de Visas

Hasta hace unos días atrás no había nada que se podía hacer al respecto, sin embargo he revisado algunos foros en días recientes  y pareciera que el Departamento de Estado esta enviando correos a algunos participantes, informándoles la anulación del primer sorteo, les informa también un vinculo donde pueden recuperar su numero de confirmación en el sorteo, y aclara algunas otras preguntas sobre el  tema y el sorteo cuyos resultados estarán disponibles a partir del 15 de Julio..


No esta claro si el correo se esta enviando solo a los que habian ganado, a los que habian verificado si ganaron o no (que se metieron en el sistema para verificar su numero en la primera semana de Mayo) o si se lo estan enviando a todos los 16 millones de participantes... 

Ya he confirmado fidedignamente y efectivamente el correo lo estan enviando, pero particularmente creo que solo se los esten enviando a los que habian entrado en el sistema en la primera semana de Mayo ... y no a los 16 millones de participantes.

Por los momentos les sugiero a las personas que perdieron su numero de confirmación, asegurar de revisar con frecuencia su correo y particularmente la bandeja de spam o correo no deseado de la direccion de correo electrónico utilizado en la inscripción,  a fin de verificar si recibieron tal correo y si efectivamente este tiene el numero de confirmacion que ahora a partir del 15 de Julio, junto con su apellido y su año de nacimiento  podrán usar para verificar si ganaron o no la DV Lotery.

A continuación el texto original del correo (luego colocaré al pie la traducción al español) :

From: no-reply@state.gov  (esta es la direccion correcta de donde deberan recibir el correo)
Date: May 19, 2011 8:20:50 AM CDT

Dear Diversity Visa Lottery Entrant:
We regret to inform you that, because of a computer programming error, the results of the 2012 Diversity Lottery that were previously posted on the Department of State Entrant Status Check website have been voided. The results were not valid because they did not represent a fair, random selection of entrants, as required by U.S. law. They were posted in error.
If you checked the Entrant Status Check website (http://www.dvlottery.state.gov) during the first week in May and found a notice that you had been selected for further processing or a notice that you had not been selected, that notice has been rescinded and is no longer valid.
A new selection process will be conducted based on the original entries for the 2012 program.
You submitted a qualified entry between October 5, 2010 and November 3, 2010. Your entry remains with us and will be included in the new selection lottery. Your confirmation number to check results on the Entrant Status Check website is still valid.

If you lost or destroyed your confirmation number, please click here:

https://XXXXXXX  (eliminado para proteger la privacidad del partipante)

We expect the results of the new selection process to be available on or about July 15, 2011 at http://www.dvlottery.state.gov
We regret any inconvenience or disappointment this might have caused.

Here are some answers to frequently asked questions:
Q: Why was it necessary to invalidate the names that were selected?

• U.S. law requires that Diversity Immigrant visas be made available through a strictly random process. A computer programming error resulted in a selection that was not truly random.
• Since the computer programming error caused an outcome that was not random, the outcome did not meet the requirements of the law, and would have been unfair to many DV entrants.

Q: Is the 2012 Diversity Visa Program cancelled?

• No. The 2012 program will continue. The computer programming error has been identified and corrected. The Department of State will run a new selection using all the qualified entries submitted for the 2012 program (received between October 5, 2010 and November 3, 2010).

Q: Do I have to submit a new application?

• No. You may not submit a new application. We will use all qualified entries received during the October 5 to November 3, 2010 registration period.

Q: Will you open a new entry period?

• No. New entries will not be accepted.

Q: I checked the Entry Status Check website after May 1 and it said I had been selected. Can I apply for a DV visa?

• Unfortunately, results previously posted on this website are not valid because the selection process was not fair or random. We will take the entries of all individuals who sent in their registration during the original October 5 to November 3, 2010 time period and run a new lottery. We regret any inconvenience or disappointment this has caused.

Q: How can I check the results of the new selection?

• The new results should be available on this website on or about July 15, 2011. The confirmation code you received when you registered is still valid for use on the website.

Q: Was the Department of State hacked? Was my personal information at risk?

• We have no evidence that this problem was caused by any intentional act. No unauthorized party accessed data related to the DV program.
• This appears to be solely the result of a computer programming error.

Q: You said the Department of State would not contact DV entrants by e-mail. Why are you sending this one now?

• Because of the computer error, we decided it was important to notify every person who might have seen incorrect information on the website. An e-mail was the fastest way to reach DV entrants.
• Winners in the new selection process will not be notified by e-mail. The results of the new selection process will only be available on the Entrant Status Check website (http://www.dvlottery.state.gov) on or about July 15, 2011.

Q: I thought I was selected, and I sent application forms to the Kentucky Consular Center. What should I do now?

• Those forms will not be processed by the Kentucky Consular Center, because they were submitted in connection with the lottery result that was voided. We cannot reimburse you for any costs, such as postage, that you may have paid to send these forms to the Kentucky Consular Center. You should check the Entrant Status Check website on or about July 15 to see if you are selected in the repeated lottery selection process. If you are selected again, we ask that you simply follow the instructions given in the notification letter, including the step of mailing your completed application forms to the Kentucky Consular Center, once again.

Q: I thought I was selected. I am in the United State and contacted US Citizenship and Immigration Services about adjustment of status. What should I do now?

• USCIS will not process any adjustment of status cases based on the voided DV selection process. If you already paid the $440 DV fee to the USBank lockbox based on your belief that you had been selected, you may request a refund from KCC through the following mailing address:

Kentucky Consular Center
3505 Highway 25-W North
Williamsburg, Kentucky 40769
