Thank you very much! How about the credit cards and auto loan. Will that be an issue?
Thanks

Dont know, sorry
Hi. Got referred to this thread now that I am considering Consular Processing for my GC application. I am intending to not delay my interview until after my number is supposedly current. Just wanted to clarify - I can submit my DS260 anytime in the fiscal year (but ASAP better), and once that is processed and my number is current I will be contacted about the interview? or do I have to actively 'apply for a Consular Processing' and get an appointment. Apologies if duplicate question but I couldnt find a clear answer

Just to be clear. DV2021 numbering will be UNLIKE any past year, with the possible exception of DV2020, because there was a change made that causes more holes. So - no one should get too concerned with the numbers below. And I say that as the person maintaining the data above that you copied from my website. You should have given some author credit at least, by the way!

Apologies sir. I tried to put the link directly but it said I could not. No harm intended!
I still think the order of magnitude can't be significantly different. Anyway, curious to see what these new changes mean for the progression.
It would be good to have a submission form where we could all input our numbering, this or past years, and then we could do some stats on it to understand what the gaps are like. Your samples wouldn't need to be huge in order to get a picture of what the system is spitting out.
Really appreciate all the work you do btw

In addition to the point about case numbers. I wrote the answer below today to someone that was trying to make predictions on case numbers - which is a completely pointless exercise until we know selectee numbers. The illustration explains why...
The case number is not important. The number of selectees (and cases) is what is important.
To be clear – Let’s say I took three years each with 5000 cases and then spread the cases in a different way each year, so that the cases were numbered in three different ways.
Year 1 had numbers from 1 to 5000 (no holes).
Year 2 had numbers from 1 to 10000 (50% density)
Year 3 had numbers from 1 to 20000 (25% case density)
In these three years is there any more risk for case number 20000 in year 3 compared to case number 10000 in year 2 or case number 5000 in year 1?
No of course not. They are the same.

Questions about I-944 (and I-485):
- In I-944, it says that "Foreign education should include an evaluation of equivalency to education or degrees acquired at accredited colleges, universities, or educational institutions in the United States." I'm planning to apply for the evaluation of equivalency report through some companies. Our schools issued diplomas in both our official language and English. Some companies mentioned that sometimes UCCIS challenges the English version of a diploma issued by the university. Is this common?
- Following my first question, when preparing the AOS package, could I just include the English versions of diplomas issued by the university, or I'll have to bring the academic documents in both official language and English to be certified and notarized?
- How many copies of the diploma should be included in the AOS package? Two copies (one for I-944 and one for I-485) or one copy is enough?

Please post AOS questions in the AOS thread, it’s quite different from CP. in addition please make sure you read the spreadsheet linked in the first post of that thread thoroughly.

Can you attach the Asian historical data. I have seen this before but wasn't able to find it later after a quick search.

We called hospital , they said you have only 20% of total bill unpaid :
1- I'm thinking to pay the remain 20 % before interview.
2- why they dont care about their money , they never ask or follow up with us before.

The question might rather be why didn’t you care enough to honor your debt?

Yes you right visa or not we will pay , debt is a debt.

What was the change that causes more holes?

1. Did you already pay the 80% of the bill when your wife had the baby or that was covered through some form of public benefit?
2. You had the responsibility of ensuring you fully pay for the delivery, not for the hospital to be looking for you and asking for their payment.

Case No. 2021OC6XX (3rd consecutive attempt at DV and am over the moon with the selection and case number). My question is this, in case I've missed some crucial piece of information since applications first opened last year.
I understand the DV-2021 application, contrary to prior years, asked applicants to enter a passport number. My passport/citizenship and country of permanent residence is in OC however my country of chargeability (country of birth) is an AS-region country. As such I always expected, should I ever be selected, that my case number be AS rather than OC. Any thoughts or am I tripping over nothing of significance?

No we didnt ask any public benfits , we went to hospital and pay all bills but they told us there are some bills will be available later but i cant stay in US i have to go back and i agreed with them to send remain bills by mail and they didnt send anything .

Unless you’re able to provide a copy of your eDV registration form which shows you clearly selected your country of birth under the chargeability section, I’m afraid you’re looking at a denial. Chargeability is not based on the passport information, I do not believe KCC would have gone ahead and assign you to the OC region based on your providing an OC passport information, you most likely made that selection error. So yes, you have cause to be concerned with the OC CN you have.

You must have listed a US address when you registered at the hospital. If you provided a US address, the hospital must have sent the bill to that address. That is how things work here. And I hope you have the receipts for the already paid bills also, the CO may request to see those, in addition to whatever balance you pay now.
