    OC - 2025 - Selectees Thread

    Are you aware that all states have vaccination requirements for school entry? Maybe you can pick a state that has exemptions if you don't mind being in those states...

    DV 2025 All Selectees (Consular Processing - CP)

    And it's not that I am suggesting you could do the "every couple of months" thing forever, that would not be my advice, because sooner or later they will be a nuisance.

    Super high Oceanic number

    I can't remember exactly, but that is mostly because quotas themselves were never really tested prior to DV2022 and DV2023. The caps were never fully me. OC is the closest of the regions to meet the quota in DV2024, and SA is close too. And yes you are correct the 7% cap can't be hit by any...

    Super high Oceanic number

    Big caveat. DV2023 and DV2022 taught us that the government aren't quite as "logical" or even in control of the numbers as those of us like you who can do the math. There is always the possibility of a surprise.

    That is possible, but very rare.

    The CEAC data is extracted, compiled and shared by Xarthisius, not me. He answered you already, but was too polite to correct you giving me the credit for his work. :-)

    Not sure where I gave the idea you can pick any country to be interviewed. That's a "nope".

    Super high Oceanic number

    Well it's not "impossible" to go to 2500 - but here is my thinking explained. I'm not so much looking at the VB movement, as the quota and how it is filling in OC. OC has a quota of about 850. To take more than that is possible, but means taking unused quota from other regions (which is...

    OC DV lottery 2024

    Mom is correct, disqualification is certain. You can see the country of chargeability on the 1NL (the "selected" letter).

    OC - 2025 - Selectees Thread

    In DV2024 they increased the selectees to 4450 - a 77% increase over 2023 where the 2503 selected in 2023 were proven to be significantly too many. It made no sense whatsoever. OC has a quota below 900. Even with some moved allocation from other regions (which can happen if a region doesn't use...

    DV2023 is over, there is nothing more that will happen to any DV2023 case.

    Is it possible to claim spouse’s country of birth for the DV lottery, though he doesn't satisfy the educational requiremnt for DV lottery? I do though

    You are correct Mom. I have known such cases go for interview and both applicants were treated as principal applicants, which in the case of DV means they had to meet the education/work experience requirements. I have know at least one refusal on that basis, although to be fair I have also know...
