DV 2022 OC Selectees

Shezza85 said:
I think though what @miiint is asking to know whether to select Sydney on his DS 260 as I'm assuming he/she is from there and then email Suva embassy or just select Suva on the DS 260. Its a good question might be something to ask BritSimon on his website.

Hey hey, thanks so much -- yes you're spot on this is what I'm asking :)
Good call, I shall pop the question on his website. If anyone else has any insight in the meantime do let me know!

To answer your question, I used the word “them” to avoid making an assumption of gender but, seeing as you followed the comments/ replies, and are replying to me… you’re a smart cookie, who do you think I was referring to.

I won't speculate who you referred to as one of the most vulgar and insulting words one can use, certainly the most ever used on this forum, and that you wished they don't succeed in their DV journey, why don't you let us all know the name of who you were referring to by their forum user name?

Also, just confirming, your the same person who posted the attached message, which (correctly in my opinion) stated what it said?

Oooo, juicy! Although, I’m not following your comment “one of the most vulgar and insulting words one can use”… can you elaborate? You’re more than welcome to get on that high horse but, have a quick read on singular pronouns and how they can be used within a paragraph.

Yes, that was me that made that comment, great research. Again, I’m not following… what exactly are you trying to pull the ol “ha ha, got you” about? I’m sure you have stalked all my previous posts by now, and would have read that it was kindly pointed out to me that my understanding of that specific post (picking consulates) was wrong.

Normally they ignore your embassy selection and base embassy assignments on your stated address (which presumably is in Australia) so yes, you’d almost certainly have to ask Suva to take the case,

Any impartial unbiased person on this forum would agree with the Wikipedia definition of the 4 letter word you have used today to describe someone in this thread, which reads:

..."is an English-language vulgarism which literally means the vulva or vagina, and is used figuratively as a derogatory epithet"...

In Australia the equivellent is a 4 letter word that starts with a C and ends with a T.

You then go on to wish the same person does not succeed in their DV journey.

Feel free Mods to take the correct action against Cbk and anyone who gave that abhorrent comment a thumbs up, but I won't be holding my breath.

Nothing I have said on this forum has come remotely close to what you have said in this thread today, and if it was directed at me, what's next? Hey I fly back from Suva to have cancer surgery, will you next be posting that you hope I die?, with the predictable thumbs up/s?

Within the last 24 hours @Sheaza85 correctly suggested everyone is in the same boat and try to get along. I agreed, so when someone publically reached out to me above last night, I was only too happy to publically post the information they wanted so they, and anyone else who sees it, can benefit from it.

Then someone decides to post today that my help is useless and to "stop it, now".

Stalking you? Really? Now I've heard it all. Um no, unlike by your own admission, I have actually read this thread in its entirety, that's why I can say who has said what with confidence.

I really hope I am am wrong with my predictions, if I'm wrong, we all win, but when I read the above post about the Sydney consulate, how is that post any different from what I predicted several weeks ago? and i fear my interpretation of the available data, and therefore my predictions are correct. We will all know come 1 October.

And Mods, don't come in here with your "chill" comments and "there's always one", if you want to be taken seriously as moderators, start acting with impartiality and enforce the forum rules, instead of turning a blind eye to the selective members who break the forum rules. The likes of Cbk maybe acting like they have today because they have seen others in this thread use similar profanity, against me, and get away with it.

Ahhh, now i’m following. You’re referring to my comment where I said “twat”. You started to lose me with the “starts with a C ends with T” babble, and the Wikipedia reference…words can have multiple meanings.



Your essay is to much for me to process. I apologize, I can’t keep up with you.
 
Hi everyone! I emailed Suva on Wednesday about a transfer and heard back Thursday! Thank you everyone who has shared their experiences with transfers and interviews in Suva, really helped to make my decision! Hopefully all of our interviews will be scheduled soon, and that the Sydney office opens up asap!
 
Enough said @Ckb and @090521@0411, and anyone else who feels a need to add their own opinion to the recent back and forth posts. Sydney processing folks have already experienced enough tension without new drama being added into the mix. Administrative action will be taken against any subsequent non conforming post and potentially against the account of the forum member.
Let’s not derail this thread any further please, and thank you.

p.s. yes as a moderator I am indeed asking everyone to “chill” as I refuse to be dictated to on how to moderate the forum.

Just received my interview date for Suva! Seems they are indeed going in order of CN and not change request date. Mines for early July, so anyone else that has requested a transfer can expect it to be July onwards! Unbelievably excited and happy :)

I got early July, I’m 21xx, and I only submitted my DS260 in April when things went current.

I held off as I’m on an E3 and worried I had left it too late. So excited!!

To clarify, this means that we have been allocated a visa to some degree and as long as eligible and approved at the consulate, there’s really no chance of them running out of visa allocation once already allocated an interview right?

Not necessarily so. Previously scheduled interview appointments once got canceled a couple of years back when a region ran out of its allocated visas

Yah me too! I would think given that they haven't been issuing visas for the majority of the year we may have a good chance of there being visas left for the OC allotment .....just my personal opinion but hope so!! I have been applying for 15 years so I am crossing all fingers and toes :)

Ok good to know, thank you. I saw OC got around 2500-3000 visas in previous years so hopefully that is the trajectory now with low covid levels of immigration.

I believe it’s actually happened twice before- once with Bangladesh and once with Iran. I don’t think that’s a risk for OC given the total number of selectees. However, one thing that is perhaps a higher risk to happen (no idea of the probability) is the warning in the VB that they might retrogress numbers if visa demand is too high. If this happens and you end up being scheduled an interview when the cut-off number falls below yours, you will not get issued in that month and your visa number will be reallocated back to KCC, raising the risk of not being able to get one in future months depending on case number and visa issuance progress.
 
Received my 2NL today!

I requested a case transfer from Sydney to Suva on 20 April and received my 2NL today!
My interview will be in early July. I've just booked my flight and I'm working on booking my medical and hotel.
Thanks to everyone who has shared their experience with transferring! You've all helped me tremendously with this process.

Best of luck to everyone else!
