Now that Sensei is covering my shift, I can go to bed... Just a silly joke about the rant....I mean post I made today. Couldnt resist once you mention the tough part.

hey no problem Simon, just trying to be helpful to my fellow members.

You bet, got my photo/fingerprint taken multiple times with CBP. Got some interesting question about the Bristish passport too...ok Britsimon might say I am no Brit since we were a colony, lol

Guestgulkan, while I cannot speak for others, I enjoy the the discussion and prediction you have posted. The last thing I feel is upset because the number you predicted doesn't include me. I can understand the Iranian AP may resolve much quicker and here are a few points for your...

Very interesting and informative post. Thank you Mom. Rather than speculating, I wonder how they do #2 To confirm the person... The eyeball check would be pretty scary if you ask me... Again, thanks for the info.

Oh Simon, now you are giving me too much credit. I don't dare to say I work in IT, I just like to read. No where close to the SAP expert, or I would apply for a H visa in a heart beat. In fact, I am just someone who crunches number(in a dark corner) for a living. My IT related skill is not worth...

Thanks for the different perspective Mom. From a procedural standpoint, AOS doesl offer security of not being found inadmissible on various grounds compared to CP. This is probably one of those classified chapter in the USCIS manual, but it would be interesting to know why/when they re-run checks.

We certainly don't have to discuss this again if you don't want to, not going to force you at all. I said this with all due respect. 1st, I agree with you the online immigrant visa application refers to DS260. I suspect the press release did not reveal all the info. Why? If there is a problem...

Let me make sure I understand what you are saying: 1) the biometric issue did not cause the online form issue, despite they happen at the same time. 2) they still have issue on the online form which you think is the DS260 and I think is a combo profile (DS260+eDV) and they are still doing...

Oh no, I hope I didn't contribute to your stress... Always think coming here is like going to a bar, you will get drunk one way or another.

Sorry that I've missed your question Simon. The connection is 2 folded and allow me to explain. 1) Based on interview process (questioning techniques, comparing eDV info to DS260 info etc.), security concerns ( as I have pointed out to Mom) and IT practices (single query and avoid end user...

Lol, I probably read up too much for my own good, and got the anxiety as a side effect. What do you think about my calculation/prediction? All comments/critiques are welcomed.

Another semi-speculation. Once you are a citizen, you can apply for some US Govt or US person jobs, hence more check before they get you a citizenship. One example of US person job is: Export Control compliance requirements, therefore a “US Person” as defined by 22 C.F.R. § 120.15

Not if they are being called in the same month, which beats the purposes doesn't it? They put 3800 AS CN range in 1 month in 2014. Imagine I got my visa before Nara just because we got called the same month, she will be mad. (Nara, its just an exmaple and I hope you don't mind. I am sure you are...

Exactly Sussie, you got my point. I am sure you remember at the beginning of the program year, post cannot pull up DS260. If the problem is unrelated (no DS260), they will halt interviews all together.The CO simply doens't know what to ask. I always think the CO won't ask a question they don't...

Could that be due to what they've "done" or perceived to have "done" in the US? For example, someone cleared check and enter as a student on F visa can study physics and therefore be considered on tech alert (counter proliferation) and when the next touchpoint (e.g. GC) comes, they are subject...

If biometrics (photo and other info on e-dv) are not connected to DS260, how can a CO check your entry name vs DS260 name, entry DOB vs DS260 DOB, and with the photo, you are who you claim to be? On an IT perspective? would you build 2 queries, 1 for eDV and 1 for DS260? Based on the above, I...

That's right, I remember you telling people about scheduling a bio. What I meant is the "interview" process, bio+questioning, but good catch. That I doubt. If they only carried out name and DOB check, what's the purpose of the photo? I am anticipating your answer being fraud - duplicate entries...

I would have to disagree with you Simon and side with Euro here. DV2014 is "flawless" because the VO have many tricks (control) up their sleeves. I understand the law regarding the rank order and at the beginning of the year, the VO must have some plan/target in place. And here this is where I...

Care to explain why they are unrelated? Since they mentioned hardware and affects every post, my mind jumps to server. I am sure everyone knows the info being sent from post to HQ is not by cable (despite the name being used sometimes). It has to be by satellite so there's another related...
