Nah, i really don't think that's he case. I'm talking about the actual number of Diversity Visas issued. I think you are right, darkhorse. However, if you look at the link below, it says "diversity transition" where they quote 38000 for 2007. It was actually at 48000 in 2003, then declined...

could it be that there are 50,000 or so who actually pass the interview stage, but then not all come to the US. The statistics probably refer to the number of actual green cards issued (I think green card is only issued after being in the US for a few months). So 50,000 win, but only 40,000 or...

So I added up all the winners from Africa, and the total number comes to 53979. I guess this confirms the presence of empty numbers (CN's reach 69000 for Africa in 2009). Corrected for the 7% per country maximum, the total for Africa is 43299. Still about 50% chance. Greekos, you still have a...

TNDV2008, i am sure that if i do apply, it will be through CP in Nairobi. I think you are right about the lawyers- but I've been pounding my head on this issue for a while. I do agree that this forum is probably more informative than any lawyer would be. But even after reading alot, I have...

TNDV2008, I think your response aptly narrowed down on my concern. Yes I am a DV2009 winner. I just renewed my F1 visa this last December in Nairobi, and it's valid until December 2009. However, I am hopeful that I will graduate by June 2009, and will start looking for employment thereafter. So...

Asante for your thoughts TNDV2008. I'm really hoping that your application works out well. In a way you are my inspiration. I am also in the states, and my main concern is the 'intent to immigrate' status that I would adopt if I do apply. I am in graduate school, and I am worried that if my...

Jambo wananchi, mimi pia nilipata barua, lakini nambari yangu ni mbaya sana ata sijui kama nambari langu itaitiwa. Ati AF60xxx! TNDV2008 - any updates on ur application? r u in kenya or abroad? cp or aos? Good luck to you guys though.

From last year's bulletins, case numbers over 40,000 only became current in August and September. This does not give enough time for AOS (atleast from what I have read in the forums). That leaves only CP. But the numbers are still called in order, so the only way that someone like me (case...

It would be really helpful to hear of experiences from past winners who had high case numbers. And I mean really high case numbers, like mine for example (2009AF00062xxx !!!) I think it would be good to know what the high limits for AOS and CP are, and what one can do to boost up their chances.
