DV Lottery experience in Pakistan
I have finally got the good news and picked my visa today. I was interviewed on 4th June and picked the visa today on 4th September. I was Interviewed at Islamabad Embassy as an Afghan national.
Note: I have got to tell you something that the embassy will not send you email or phone call if your visa is approved. Instead call Department of state and check your case status there. They give frequent answers and have updated case information. That is what I did.
Thanks for the support of all of you.
