Hi!

Can somebody help me. My case number is 2011AF0008XXXX, do I have any chance to win or when can be my interview? I am from Seychelles. I believe that is not very good number
Thanks in advance,
Cheers

You need to look at previous years Visa Bulletin to have an idea about how case numbers progresses. Your CN is correct however it is high. You are looking at an interview probably in September 2011 if all of the Africa region becomes current then. In DV-2008, Africa did not have the chance to be current however Africa was current for DV-2009 in September 2009. We are yet to see what happens to DV-2010. Just keep praying and try gathering documents that will not expire by September 2011.

KCC ordinarily does not confirm receipt of your documents unless it s by registered post where you can check with your courier. KCC however can confirm to you whether your documents are documentarily qualified for further processing after some months of recieving your documents. This will however be done if your request from them through e-mail. Every month the State Department releases the Visa Bulletin which shows cut off numbers for each region below which an apllicant will be scheduled for an interview. For example your CN will be current in a particular month if the cut off for that month is 20***. That is your CN is below the cut off. Where all selectees for a particular region will have the opportunity to be scheduled for an interview, that region will be deemed as being current. This usually happens in or around August or September of the fiscal year.

I'm so nervous and impatient!! I have not received anything yet... is it too late to receive something?
I'm from the netherlands antilles... not sure if they will consider it europe (since it's european property) or caribbean (since it's in the caribbean)
Has anyone there or anywhere received anything lately? pls help! thxxx

 

[sonibago]

aquablue..it looks like it's over. The breakdown of winners has already been published, check it out. I think people in the Caribbean most likely have received their NLs by now.
Netherland Antilles is classified under EU and has 16 winners and Aruba 6.

Confused....
Since I have a high number for 2011, about AS29xxx, I got into calculating the whole DV2011 winners.
Here they are :
AF = 51004
AS = 14999
EU = 30999
NA = 18
OC = 1600
SA = 1989.

TOTAL = 100609.

My question is since AS has only 14999 CN issued. How come my number is AS29xxx? Does that mean it includes family members of the people before me?
I have also heard of case numbers as high as AS45xxx. Are we ranked by case numbers? Meaning there will be somebody receiving CN100609?

Thanks in advance.

awwh

Do u or anybody know if they have posted the breakdown of how many people have applied from each country? Only 16 people won and if lets say I know only 100 applies than my chances are big..
I know... I'm being VERY impatient and desperate, can't even sleep!
