Guys i am still a little confused about the CN.
Don't the interviews start from October? Applicants are informed August/Sept?
The visa bulletin says my CN is current now.
If you're place in the visa que is determined by the CN, what impact does getting the application forms in early have?
I think i am missing something here.

ajk,
are you a 2011 winner?
the current bulletin are for 2010. the dv lottery visa fiscal year ends sept 30. so oct 1 will be the new fiscal year for 2011. therefore you should start checking the bulletins starting oct 1.
the bulletin publishes the current month's cut off cn's and the advance notification cn's for the following month, ie, sept's bulletin will have the cut off for oct and advance notification for nov.
for 2011, you cannot apply until oct 1 (as stated in the 1st nl), if you are doing aos, it will have to be oct 1. if you are doing cp, they will inform you for appointment for interview in the month you are current. however, you can send in your ds forms to kcc now.
