2012 Visa bulletin predictions

When you number is current?

Hi

I'm sorry for asking an obvious question, but when you say "when your number is current" , that means your number is on the monthly bulletin?

Many thanks.


Such a long wait until May!

Hi all, I joined this forum this year only after winning DV lottery in July 2011,
My CN is within 2012AF00020XXX , I'm from Egypt
I'm following the VB and knew it will reach 12700 for Egypt and 18500 for Africa in December
My questions :
the no after the 2 letters of regions initials AF , AS , EU is it world-wise or region-wise ?
If it's Expected to reach 2012AF00020XXX for Egypt In February 2012 or so , will it be the call for interview or the interview itself?
thanks in advance

The number is world wise,I mean the number is unique regardless of your region.That was my question and found it after an extensive search.

Source? I have not been able to get any such info. even though I feel you are right.....
 
I think the no behind Region Initials is Region-wise

Thanks Dv2012AFTAZ & CMBT for sharing your thoughts
We believe that the case no is unique
just like phone no
(00- international call ) (Country code ) (Area code ) (local phone no.)
Local phone no can be repeated in same country in different area and it's unique with adding area code
I think same applies for case no
(Fiscal Year )(Region initials )( File no )
the file no can be repeated in every region but with adding Region initials it becomes unique
I think we can find
2012AF0000200 , 2012AS0000200 ,2012OC0000200 etc, the case no is still unique
Another point, how can find like Oceania nos in hundreds only and other areas in thousands ? were they selected first ?
Thanks again for sharing your thoughts
Waiting is boring
I'm using it to search for profession registration once we move to the states
I commented with same issue, not published, so i wrote it again, if both later published, I don't mean to spam the thread
Good luck to all
