Its April and people usually start recieving notifications as early as now. So come on and let us know if you were lucky or not!
 
Good luck, fellow Australians. Good to see more on the forum :)

I have an interview next month in Sydney, but entered the 2011 lottery too.. as it was before I had heard..

Generally only about 700 Australians win each year.
 
Good Luck

Good luck with the whole process, my wife and I have received our greencard from the 2010 lottery yesterday and we plan tp move to new york in sep/oct. We went to hawaii to "activate" and loved it there. I must say the whole process was very easy from start to finish as this was the only year we applied and got through with no hassles. Hated the medical as I have a fear of needles and the interview lasted a whole 2 minutes and ws very easy.Lots of opportunites await us in real estate over there as we liquid cash to buy properties and hold for a while.

Good luck and any questions please feel free to ask

Hey Kenny21275, I have a question about the medicals.. where did you get yours done? I'm getting mine done in Melbourne this friday. I think I will need to get a few needles that I didn't get as a kid.. what do they charge for the needles? How long did the whole medical exam last?

Congrats and good luck in NY, that's where we'll be headed too when we get the visa :)

Hi, I am living in Brisbane Australia at the moment and this will be my third time I have applied for the lottery. Does anyone know if they ask how much cash you have at the interview? Would a car count. I read they do this so they don't deem you as likely to claim welfare. Just wondering.

The letter from the Sydney Consulate which has the list of documents to bring doesn't have anything mentioning bank balance or affidavit of support, however it is often asked for and you'd be better prepared if you could show your savings. You are meant to show you have enough to meet the poverty guidelines which is around $10,000 US per person.
 
Hi all,

I am and Aussie waiting for my number to come up for 2010 lottery. I am hoping that it will be current in the next bulletin (July). Now I am a little concerned. I sent in my DS230 and all that pretty late (in Feb). Should I of received a confirmation of receipt from KCC?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Sorry about the confusion. I will re-post in a new thread....I was just thrilled to find some fellow Aussies.
 
I AM positive NM... If you go to my last post in the 2011 post you will see my concern over the education issue tho. BUT I am still very positive. I still check the mail 'daily' :) with the Hope. If you win - what state will you live?
