KL is unique in that they actually pre-screen documents post-2NL, pre-interview.

 

They expect proof of admission (physical presence) and a residence type visa or permit (ability to stay within Malaysia for interview processing). 
 

 

So I emailed them last night and as expected they declined. Oh well, at least we dodged a bullet there 😆 Next! Thanks for your prompt responses @throwitaway

Can you recommend any other embassy? Do you think we should take our time submitting for DS-260?

The current fyi on USEM in Khartoum says work with NVC to transfer your case. On top of that you may even expedite. 

 

https://sd.usembassy.gov/visas/

See the Immigrant Visas for Sudanese Nationals section

"Individuals with approved, current petitions who have not been scheduled for an immigrant visa interview may be able to request expedited processing and/or a transfer to another interviewing post through the National Visa Center.  To request expedited scheduling, please email NVCExpedite@state.gov"

 

I'm aware of this announcement thank you. However this is a dv lottery case not family reunion case (i-130). I didn't submit the DS260 yet and I wanna be sure first. Any contact has to be made with KCC at this point not NVC.

Hi, I'm filling DS-260 and want to choose the US embassy in Kuala Lumpur for my interview instead of my country Sudan due to war going on right now, all embassies have closed permanently but I can enter Malaysia without a visa. I would like to know if they accept scheduling DV lottery appointments for non-residents. Please share your experience if you had your interview there, what are the required documents? Does KCC require proof of residency in Malaysia for them to sent my case there?

Thank you!

Is this DV2023? And to clarify, the DS260 has not ever been submitted?

It's a 2024 winner, and the form isn't submitted yet, That's why I was perplexed!

Hi! How can I change the interview location in form DS 260 (dv lottery) before submission? I'm filling this for a friend,  and due to war in Sudan, he won't be able to have his interview in Khartoum, Sudan. So, I suggested a couple of countries that require a counter visa only for Sudanese citizens; So I put Malaysia as starters and proceeded with filling the rest of the form thinking I can go back and change the embassy location once we made a final decision. The problem is that when I went back to change the interview location, this section was no longer active and grey color. I can't change it anymore no matter what, even though I haven't submitted the form yet. Does this mean I have to email KCC to unlock it for me? Help, please!

I attached a screenshot.

Thanks in advance!
