Officially game over. I sincerely hope those that still in the progress will get their visas and have a happy life in USA. Good bye guys and good bye America.

Someone ask about the possibility of Sept cut off changes and the following is the reply from DOS. Dear Sir, I am a DV 2014 winner. Any changes in September cut-off number for Asia? U.S. Department of State: Consular Affairs DV numbers are reviewed every month, and there is always a...

Why DV2014 so screwed up? Damn. It looks like KCC and DOS don't know how to handle things if is oversubscribed. The last occurrence was 9 years ago.

It was 9 years ago that DV has the final cut offs. I believe no one has experience of the final fiscal month with final cut offs . Some think it will not change and it is final. Some think it will increase a little. Some think NACARA will come to rescue. Some even think it will go current. Well...

There is a different this year. AP cases globally still have a lot pending and whether they can clear it in time I am not too sure. Remember, all regions go current in Aug for DV13 but in DV14, it will still have AP cases flowing in in Aug and Sept.

Asia is really interesting this year. Nepal cut off at 9500, Rest of Asia is not many in the run and yet they try to limit the AP clearing for Iran. Then how they going to fulfill the regional quota? Unless they intend to increase the Sept cut off next month or regional quota has been reduced.

Nepal has similar notice too in their US embassy website.

we make our Iran Ceas Data on following link h t t p s ://d o c s .g o o g l e . com/spreadsheets/d/1OM3vXRxPsDSftKiJtvZrG4oUWdXedQpxezG7pbsRq3s/edit?pli=1#gid=2044988675 and according ceas data 1438 case have AP status and only afew case remaing for Intervie on July And aguest ( less than 25...

It still have around 1.4k AP and 800 ready from Iran. I was thinking they are clearing AP cases and it looks like AP cases have it own monthly quota too.

Ankara still list all the Asia case #. If those are fresh interview then it could be because of AP clearing needs minimum of 3 months and it doesn't make sense to have interview in July since dv14 officially stop on 30th Sept.

It doesn't make sense. If Iran is having about 3k visas issued so far then we can said it could be interviews from others embassies or AOS but now only 2k issued. If is incomplete of data, it cannot have such a huge gap. Those interviews or case # is fresh interview or AP clearing interview?

Iran has 4.4k selectees already scheduled for interview and at least 800-900 will be disappointed too.

Where you get those info? Is that official? As of now, Asia still below 6.5k visas issued so it still have plenty visa left until AP clearing which is expected to be in 2k range.

Iran Visa Issued Statistics Issued 2060 July 472 Jun 683 May 204 Apr 160 Mar 104 Feb 108 Jan 95 2013 Dec 89 Nov 87 Oct 58 Ready 764 AP 1437 Based on the above statistics, Iran is clearing a lot of AP in month of Jun and in July it might be in 800 range. If DOS believe Iran will be clearing...

Last minute??? Giving one month notice you called it last minute? Anyway, everyone have their own opinions. Let hope they will make some adjustments LAST MINUTE.

What I get from KCC is this. We should wait for Aug 15th (not July 15th) because that is the final #. Now we only have an advanced notice. Of course no guarantee it will change but there is a slim hope. We already waited for more than a year, no harm to wait for 3 more weeks. We already have...

You reschedule your interview via US embassy or KCC? It is strange because you should have a visa slot before you can have an interview. It looks like you have an interview without a visa slot.

I don't think we need any weekly update anymore because based on the Sept cut off, KCC is trying to avoid any interview cancellation.

3500 and above when they have no one else waiting in queue but this year we have at least 5k+ selectees waiting and mostly likely will be disappointed.

KCC is just a consulate center that process DV applications and they do not know how the visa slots are allocated, etc... Department of State (DOS) is the one who decide the movement of DV visa slots and allocation, regional quota etc... So if you call or email KCC or any US embassy or consulate...
