Totally agreed. The only thing we can do is to wait for improve Sept cut off. If it doesn't turn up the way we wanted then execute plan B.

Based on Sloner video it clearly stated that each country can only get 3500 visas. Anyway, it is not important right now.

Law said only 7% limit of 50k per country max. If you issues more and no one sacrifices because of that it is ok, just like in DV13 but in DV14 they are taking aways visa slots those in the queue. So it is a potential lawsuit if they really do it.

I don't think any country will get more than 3.5k this year because it is not current in Sept. If they do it, it is against the law. In DV13, it is ok because everyone got their interviews but not this year. If they really stop the CN and yet issue to any country more than 3.5k, they are opening...

As I said start to kick in your recovery or plan B or whatever you call and still keep you eye for Sept VB until Aug 15th. Anyway, is your choice on what you wanted to do. Since you are still monitoring this forum, I can safely say you still hope some miracle will happen.

VB Aug (release on mid July) = Official cut off for Aug and advance notice for Sept. VB Sept (release on mid Aug) = Official cut off for Sept and advance notice for Oct (DV2015).

15 of Aug

Different people have different ways of interpreting it and no one even thought the Sept cut off ended up this way. So, to me everything is still possible in this weird DV year. As I said, have nothing to lose. My state of mind already prepare the worst and plan B already started to kick in, so...

No one can answer this question because we all just don't know but it is possible. If you call KCC, some will say yes and some will say no because they have no clue how DV14 is going to end. But I just have a feeling that it is not final yet. Why? Because for Asia it pushed Cambodia Aug...

Sept VB for Aug cut off is final. Yes, theoretically you can wait until Aug 15th before you can say it is official game over. No harm hoping for 5 more weeks since we have hoping and waiting for more than 50 weeks. Anyway, your state of mind should be prepare for the worst by now.

We already hit the worst moment in DV life. It will not hurt us anymore even the # stay the same so no harm hoping for last minute luck. We have nothing more to lose now and it doesn't matter how they get the # to current. If it do some adjustment and it favor you then perfect if not just let it...

When the journalists trying to get more info on the background processes, he doesn't want to tell much and insist that is not public information. How it actually allocate visa slots to CN is unknown and is up to them to make any changes when needed.

Based on this video we can confirm that regional quota do exist and it will adjust year by year. And one more thing is that it will not put a region as current if they do not have sufficient visas for that region. So, very likely DOS and KCC are working on the final cut off for all regions in...

Guys, let do this. Get a volunteer to call at 2pm and 4pm Kentucky time and others just come back at 2:05 and 4:05 to check the status. No point of keep calling and get nothing out of it. Any volunteer?

18k or 19k CN don't need a miracle, it just need a bit more luck but going current need a miracle. If visa slots increased to 2k then below 20k CN should be in. Next 2-3 days we will know our faith.

You still remember your CN #? I am sure you remember it then that's is the proof.

Let think how DOS decides the visa slots. Allocations are done in 2 months advance so they have to predict the success rate. How they predict the success rate? The best way is to look at last few months success rate, so if rest of Asia is having a success rate of 70%, it will needs 13k to 14k...

I think they will go for 1k but whether NACARA plays a role here or not for the last month allocation I am not sure. I hope it will. If NACARA quota release for the very last month then it is possible to have 2k visa slots but it cannot go beyond that, that's why I said 99% it will not go current.

This is probability. For the first 8k, on average Rest of Asia is having the density of 25% so in term prediction it is safe to pick that number. During selections, it might be 75% chances they pick Iran and Nepal selectees and 25% Rest of Asia based on the entrants statistic, when Nepal and...
