The next VB (which will be published in the next few days) will list the final number for each region - including AF. Right now the number (after 11 months) for AF is 69300. The density (amount of real cases per 1000 case numbers) is lower in higher case number ranges BUT STILL - a jump of 30k in the final month is a big jump. So - IF you go current, your interview would be in September BUT there is a chance that your case number is not reached. So - fingers crossed for you and the rest of waiting selectees.

About the bank statements - yes you should have them ready.

Away from the unfruitful verbal war, there is a Dv related concern: on average and based on realism, if a permanent resident files for his or her spouse, how long will it take for the spouse to be called for an interview? (Kenyan Embassy)

Not sure this is what you are asking (Source: VB July 2014) - underline included:

"Second: Spouses and Children, and Unmarried Sons and Daughters of Permanent Residents: 114,200, plus the number (if any) by which the worldwide family preference level exceeds 226,000, plus any unused first preference numbers:
A. (F2A) Spouses and Children of Permanent Residents: 77% of the overall second preference limitation, of which 75% are exempt from the per-country limit;
B. (F2B) Unmarried Sons and Daughters (21 years of age or older) of Permanent Residents: 23% of the overall second preference limitation.
Third: (F3) Married Sons and Daughters of U.S. Citizens: 23,400, plus any numbers not required by first and second preferences.
Fourth: (F4) Brothers and Sisters of Adult U.S. Citizens: 65,000, plus any numbers not required by first three preferences.
On the chart below, the listing of a date for any class indicates that the class is oversubscribed (see paragraph 1); "C" means current, i.e., numbers are available for all qualified applicants; and "U" means unavailable, i.e., no numbers are available. (NOTE: Numbers are available only for applicants whose priority date is earlier than the cut-off date listed below.)

I mean filing for a spouse of a permanent resident (someone you married after becoming a permanent resident who is still in Kenya or any country outside USA). How long will it take before they are invited for an interview....I request for a real successful example from Kenya.

Yes, this is the information I provided to you above (as she/he was not included in the initial DV process):

"A. (F2A) Spouses and Children of Permanent Residents"

LPR files form I-130, current waiting time 07/2014 - 05/2012 = 2 years 2 months, this may change going forward, the reason they post this information monthly in VB Bulletin. Best.

PS: Waiting times just differs if you are from China, India, Mexico or the Philippines, which you are apparently not.

I thought only posts about 2015 diversity visas were "allowed" here? :rolleyes:

Now go here http://forums.immigration.com/forums/family-based-green-card-through-marriage-relative.121/ where people can answer your question. For crying out loud, the majority of people here are trying to figure out the DV process, you are on an entirely different track.

Well, that forum may not be of much help to him either since he wants only those with Kenyan experience to respond. I would have been more than happy to explain it to him but my lips are permanently sealed for now when it comes to questions from him.
