2012 Visa bulletin predictions

Subscription

Have I missed something? When I last checked the visa bulletin (about 1 minute ago!) it still says 'April 2012 (Coming Soon)' - do they send out emails before they release the numbers on the webpage?

My case number is OC000011** - based on last years numbers I was hoping my interview would be May...getting very impatient!

You can subscribe...and those who did received the PDF copy via email I guess. I don't subscribe but that's the only explanation coz even Shusterman got it too but not yet posted.

Cut off point for May is 1150
 
I called KCC yesterday PM to find out if my file had been transferred to FO, and this nice lady told me that it had not been transfered and instructed me to contact the FO and ask them to request for it again. She told me to tell them that I was ready for an interview but I confirmed with her that I had already done the interview. I also confirmed that the file had been requested 1-2 times and the first time only an empty folder was sent. The second time, I only know coz FO told me that they would request again.
She insisted that I contact FO and ask for it a 3rd time...and informed me that I would be current in May. She told me to let them know that I would be current in May and need the file requested again...she kept repeating these facts...and so am I LOL!





You were NOT expecting this!!! Speak the truth!!! LOL! LOL! I am truly happy for you! Best wishes!


You are happy for everybody, thanks. me too. I am also happy for my own because My Number has come nearer. I was worried that I wont be current till August but now it seems that it will be in July or around.

AFRICA 50,000 Except: Egypt 33,000
Ethiopia 33,000
Nigeria 25,000

Thank you for posting - although I don't even have a number I like to keep a little eye on the numbers. Seems Oceania is a little less forcasted than last year (May was 1,175 in 2011).

Good luck to everyone that have their numbers coming up :)

I think it's best to wait until April; if you send too early, your AOS package may likely be returned to you due to early filing.
 
thank you real_picture
