Hey guys i have been selected !!!!

OK - please share your case number range, but hiding the last few digits like 2018AF12XXX. Could you tell us what the "selected" letter says for how many people have been selected this year. It will be a number between 80,000 (hopefully) to 140,000 (hopefully not that high).

I haven´t and to be honest no rush, since I have 99% chances of getting not selected LOL

Its the best thing to do @rafi-cairo . I also decided not put high hopes on the lottery and work harder on things that are under my control

I think you have a pretty decent case number. Probably Britsimon can confirm.

I am the same, I think you start to think that way after seeing not being selected for more than 3 times lol!

Interesting - thanks.

FYI - that number is not "high" but you won't be current in the first 3 or 4 months - so - no need to rush to submit your DS260. Your interview won't be in 2017.

Its like buying a normal lottery ticket. The last time I won a lottery ticket it was without even expecting the number was going to play lol

There is always next year. Took me ages, about 11 times if I remember correctly

I like your way of thinking It'll be my 7th attempt in October if I don't win this year so I am getting close!

That´s right and you can just keep on trying while the program exists.

sorry I posted this in another thread but then found that this one is more appropriate. I entered for my wife and myself from a European country and the website says that we didn't get selected. from threads from previous years I found that in the first days the website may give a false message due to overloaded traffic. Is that information any accurate based on your experience? Trying to retain hope but not sure if that will be for nothing.
