DV 2015 Winners Meet Here

Hello guys, my number is SA 125X. I sent the form on February 10, do you think I will be called for the interview or I sent the form too late to be called?
 
Hi Britsimon , hope you are doing good

My case was under AP , I just checked case status and finally i found a reply in the embassy website :

( We are pleased to inform you that your immigration case is ready for issuance. You may bring your passport(s) to the Embassy any Sunday or Tuesday at 1:30 p.m., excluding holidays. In most cases, the visa will be ready for pick-up in 4 to 7 days. Embassy staff will provide further details when you drop off your passport(s).

The administrative processing on your file has been completed. However, a visa number may not be available for your file within this month.

Please note: if you do not send your passport immediately, a visa number may not be available for your file within this month.

Please check the Department of State’s current Visa Bulletin at Visa Bulletin for information about visa availability for your visa category. )

WHAT dose it mean "visa number not available within this month" ?

Congratulation mradel,

the embassy have limited visa number in each month.
by example is embassy have 500 visa number,and get clearance about 510 case,the extra case 10 case must wait until next month for visa number .
Dont worry ,email to embassy and ask to time for deliverying the passport.
 
hi guys, am from Liberia, Africa. My wife and son won the DV 2015 and i wasn't part of the original entry but got added since we married after she played. Right now we are really nervous since our number is AF00081XXX, which seem relatively high. Should we still be hopeful? And if so, when di we expect an interview?

Forget NVC. They have no part of the DV process. KCC control the process until they send the file to the embassy - you deal with the embassy from then on.

Utopias answer is not accurate. The embassy don't have an allocation each month at all. Here is how it works.

When each case is sent to an embassy it is preallocated with a visa - so if approved the embassy can just issue the visa(s) for the case. Then at the end of the month the embassy has to account for the cases it was sent that month - this data then feeds in to the VB process. I don't think the embassy has control of its own allocation - the cases are accounted for individually. However, if the case is on AP the end of month process means the case loses its pre-allocated visa. In that case, once the AP is resolved the embassy has to go back to KCC to get a visa reallocated to the case. This can cause issues - especially during the last months of the process, because the last pre-allocations are made in July - so the AP cases in August and September rely on denials. However, this early on in the process - the re-allocation of a visa to a clearing AP case should not be a problem .

A letter like that would come from the company - if it is a real offer - you don't have to tell them what to say!
