## **Dream Deferred: Hundreds of Moroccan DV Lottery Winners Face Interview Delays, Risk Lost Opportunities**

Moroccan citizens who won the 2025 US Diversity Visa Lottery are facing growing anxiety as they await crucial interview appointments at the US Consulate in Casablanca. Despite submitting complete applications on time, hundreds of winners report prolonged delays, jeopardizing their dreams of migrating to the United States.  

**Ticking Clock Adds Pressure**

Applicants have expressed concern that the ongoing silence and processing delays are causing significant psychological distress. They emphasize that the program operates under a strict deadline ending September 30th, 2025, meaning they risk losing what they describe as a life-changing opportunity.

A formal letter addressed to the consular section highlights that many case numbers have been eligible for months, according to the US State Department’s Visa Bulletin.  

**Conflicting Information Fuels Confusion**

Adding to the frustration, applicants report conflicting information between the Kentucky Consular Center (KCC), which claims files have been forwarded, and the Casablanca consulate, which denies receiving them. 

Repeated inquiries sent to US authorities in Casablanca, Rabat, and Washington have yielded inconsistent responses. Many winners say they have already resigned from jobs or abandoned studies in preparation for emigration.  


One applicant shared with media: "[Quote about conflicting information and frustration]."
