Does anybody know how many NL has been sent to EU last year?
tigerGC, how do you know that 24,257 NLs have been sent last year to the EU region?
Is this information listed anywhere?
What i'm trying to figure out is if there is a correlation between the number of NLs sent and the Visa cutoff for the EU region (i.e. ...the higher the NLs, the higher the cutoff number).
Theoretically, if you think one region got more number of selections in a year, then it would be normal to also have more visas issued, hence the cutoff to be higher.... or maybe i'm just hoping here, given my high CN (23XXX)
Anyone who might know better?
Thanks for the link tigerGC!
Is there any explanation for the decrease in the cutoff number for Europe region? Or it's just variable from year to year, depending on chance?
Probably my chances of getting the number current are very slim, but trying doesn't hurt, right?
Congratulations. Send your forms in and see what happens.Hi there, I just got a letter today,
I am in Ireland,
NL dated May 1st,
postmarked May 9th
Delivered today, may 15th.
After applying consistently for the last 5/6 years. I was very happy to get one, but after a good bit of reading on this forum I think that I may have gotten a bit too excited too soon, my case number is: 2008EU00025XXX.
This seems very high, and after looking at the last two years the cut offs were well below this. Although I have looked back at years gone by and they have gone beyond this some years. I will of course send back the form, but if the cut offs did manage to go above this it is likely to be a year from Aug/sep 2007 that I might get an interview! so lucky to get a letter and then so unlucky to get such a high no! ahh well thats life! I just thought I would post this as it is higher then most of the EU numbers on this forum so far I think. I will be checking back to see if anyone has gotten one any higher.
Hi, my number is EU000175XX. I got this information from the company (USAFIS), that proceeded my application, through e-mail.
I have not yet received the package.
Is that normal? What is the interval for the letter to arrive?
(my region country is Hungary)
Thanks
If you applied through a company it means they have the package. So the time it will take to arrive depends on how fast USAFIS sends it and what service they use (e.g. regular mail or courier).
Congratulations. Send your forms in and see what happens.

By the way for dv-2007, the response to the first NL was so few from Europe that KCC sent out NL to new winners in March 2007 [for dv2007].

Hi Entermate,
