Hello Jugnu786,
I read some of your posts and appreciate the detail and accuracy of your suggestions and advices. I am sorry that you are still waiting for your name check to be completed, and hope that it will all work out for you very soon.
I have couple of questions for you, and would appreciate your advice very much. My sister got 2008EU00022XXX, forgot the exact number. She is a F1 student here in the US, and will graduate in May 2008. So you can say, she got selected exactly when she needed it. Alas, it is my understanding that this case number is quite large, and even if she gets an interview, it is likely to be in July or August 2008.
In your opinion, what is a better option for her: AOS or CP? In addition, she will either have her OPT papers by then or, she will be in process of obtaining them; is this a problem as far as DV procedure goes? It might be difficult to travel with OPT pending. Also, embassy folks seem to cancel any non-immigrant type of visa you might have in case you opt for CP. So in case the interview does not work out for her, she might get stuck in the old country.
Thanks a bunch!
Best Regards
Nebo
