Dv 2011 winners from asia only

Thank you, leongsce, for your sharing information.

Well, my CN is 300xx. It is high. I received my first NL on May 10 letter dated May 3. Sent DSP-122,DS-230, bar code, 2 passport photos, a letter for AOS, a self-sealed envelop, and a fee to KCC on May 18 on a registered mail. KCC received on May 21. KCC return payment due to my address entered DV program is different from my actaul and bank address. So, KCC could not process the cashier's check from my bank. That check was returned with a short notice of letter to pay DOS in MO in the amount of $375.00 if I intend to do AOS or pay all fees at the Embassy in my country if I do CP. I sent $375 to MO on June 11, and DOS received it on June 14. I received a registered US Postal Service Card that I sent to MO on June 17 , and received DOS ($375) receipt on June 28, stamped "PAID ON JUNE 14." I called KCC on a later date in June. An officer told me that they received my document and would process it in 3-4 weeks and instructed to me call back in six weeks. Now I'm waiting.

I'm here on F-1 visa. I will graduate from my school in December 2010 due too skipping one whole semester. Thinking of applying for OPT and find a job in a hospital soon.

By reading this thread, I see that this year winners from our region received high CN.

Wish all the luck for you! Please stay in touch and give and share with us your experience and guides!

hi kambo,
you're moving in the right direction. does your f1 visa expire after you graduate or do you have more time left on it? remember you have to keep yourself legal in status in the usa before you submit your aos application. applying for opt after graduation will be a wise thing to do. i think your number will only become current near the tail end of fy2011.
thanks for your wishes and i will stick around to help.
 
Hi leongsce,

My f1 visa is good during my status as a student. My I-20 will stay good until May 2012. I talked to the International Office about my case. I was told that to keep my legal status I can apply for OPT. Hope to get a job offer after graduation!

kambo,
try to keep legal status as long as you can and renew it when you need to.
i believe the healthcare industry has a shortage of professionals like you. i am sure you will have no problem getting a job.
best of luck.
 
Hi all,

I'm very very new to this forum and I'm from Sri Lanka. Actually my wife won the GC 2011.
Her CN is AS00018XXX.

1)As per the previous VISA bulletins our CN has to be current by May/June 2011. Which means our interviews will be schedule to that time? Am I right?

2) Somewhere I read that GC interview is scheduled based on the first come first serve basis for the replies (Document relevant) KCC get for NL1.
Am I right?

If that's the case, is there any possibility to schedule it before June 2011???

Any thoughts?

Best regards,
Senuk

Hi Senuk,

Congrats on ur winning of the DV lottery and welcome to this great forum.
The first come first serve purpose is based on the manner of arrival on the interview day. The embassy will
conduct interview in the manner of those who came first. On the interview day they will
give everyone a DV number. The person who comes first will be attended to first.
Same to the second person and so on. Also, there is no way a person will be scheduled
for an interview without being current. I guess ur interview will be may/june/july looking back
at the past statistics, just like u said.

All the best!!!!
 
Hi,

Thank you very much for your valuable input!

I have one more question!

In my documents sent back to KCC, I kept "Name of the petitioner" field blank. (At that time I was not aware of this great forum. Otherwise I would have asked it before sending it. :( )
Will that be a problem for me?

I just got my letter from yesterday. I'm in Boston. A bit sad that the CN is high, 2011AS00027xxx.

I definitely will not do AOS since it's too risky in my case with such as a high number. Planning to fly back to Taiwan for interview. However I'm still not sure whether my number will be called in later months. Any thought?

Guess I have to keep an eye on what happens on DV2010 high AS numbers in the coming months.

-----
2011AS00027xxx
2011/05/11 => First NL received


DV-2010 high case number got visa 2010AS00028700
So you have 100% chance to get visa

My case number 2011AS00033XXX
Got 1st NL 2010/05/30 (dated May 4th)
send forms to KCC 2010/07/05 (send by regular post)
KCC confirmed 2010/07/27
waiting for 2nd NL i think i will be current next year aug ( i beleive 100%)
Because Most selectees applications did not send to KCC (Because this time not attached applications forms with selectee notification letter)

This year is expecting from asia high case number over than 35000
 
Hi persia, I am from Iran too but living in the us. do you know how long clearance processing will last for Iranian winner. due my high case number i am not sure about AOS. what do you suggest? thanks and congats..
Hi news from Iran a lot of people received their 1NL on 19may & 20 may in Tehran there are different case number 7xxx till 18xxx I wish the best for alls
 
Hi firo, regarding that your interview is in Sep do you have enough time to be clear from background checking and other further processing. I am from Iran and as I know background checking for Iranian takes long time. have you applied for AOS or cp? interview is the last step? if you were interviewed with positive outcome it means you can reach green card before deadline? i appreciate your answer inadvanc
All Asia will have there chance for interview trust me, but for high case numbers you have to wait too much like me, I won dv 2010 and my interview in september, and my case number maybe the highest in dv2010 2010as29xxx, all of you gone make it :)
