Dear britsimon, I think our case numbers have been assigned according to the order of the application form they had received. Am I right? Because I have sent my forms in the first week of the June (one month delayed!!) , and my case number is 2014AS00020XXX !!

No that is not correct. The case numbers are assigned during the draw process - before you ever sent in your papers.

If you mean they are being processed in the order that you sent them - then again no that is not entirely correct - assuming the papers were sent in time, then they will be processed in CN order (roughly - within the monthly cutoff range).

Aimanda, no need to ask the question multiple times on different threads. Would have been better in its own thread.

Send the corrected/updated forms to KCC. It won't cause any problem.
 
This is actually a minor error, not worth contacting KCC over. The correction regarding the phone number and new address can be made at the time of the interview.

And I agree posting the same question on multiple and sometimes unrelated thread can be off-putting.

Really 20XXX :-(
Anybody know, can I have an interview?

Nobody can be certain - but your are certainly in the "risky" range of numbers. If you do get an interview it would be very late in the year - possibly August or September. My advice would be to put this out of your mind for a few months - we won't know anything about your case number until we see the next 5 or 6 months of visa bulletins.

Thanks britsimon for your reply :) Could you let me know the highest known CN number in Asia?

Someone mentioned 27k as being the highest number. That sounds about right as there were 23,000 selectees in Asia this year compared to 16k last year.
 
hey... yes i sent my application on 2013/07/04... my cn is 2014AS000020** so can you say how many days ago to received my 2NL
 
britsimon said:
If you sent your forms in late that will delay things a bit. Otherwise people who are current in December are just starting to receive their 2NL emails at the moment - so wait a few more days...

Did you ask KCC about the status of your documents? If they have completed processing then you'll get your 2NL in a few days.

Original Birth Certificate

Hi, Is there anyone here who didn't had the Original Birth Certificate but managed to get the GC, My parents have lost my original certificate(first issue) some time back (think they haven't collected it from my nursery), but I've copy of the certificate which was issued in the same year as my original (1988) It's identical to the original- seems like hand written (can't say for sure as it's written in black) and all but there's a small claim at bottom stating "this is true copy of the birth registration entry field of record in the office. If any of you has any experience in a similar matter could you please share it here or advise me as to how to proceed further.

It is no problem to use an official extract of the birth certificate as long as it is the long form version. There is a short form version used in many countries which does not show details of parents. That type is unacceptable - but if the extract you have lists your parents then you are fine.

@Dila
Further, try substantiate the data in there with some other doc like 'school leaving cert' or 'baptismal record' etc. (if applicable).
I blv CMB post is well aware of this common problem with many.
If you have not obtained the school leaving cert. from your last school in SL (12th gr.) there is a big chance that they still have your original birth cert with them, go knock on their office and see.

Best!

My brother's CN is 23XXX. Just submitted all the documents. I think it is too early to get 2NL as current calling AS numbers are really low even you submitted the documents way early.
