more entries could be disqualify

nope, they are doing a recheck.
how can they reinsert the disqualify to just delete them again thus adding too much work?
the thing is that they might have seen duplicate selected

I highly doubt they reinsert the disqualified from the first draw. However the selectees of the new drawer of 90000-100000 will be checked for eligibility. I really doubt they check all 14 mill, if you weren't selected then it makes no sense to check you.
 
they said in that interview that they check all entries.
I realy think they might have seen duplicate selected do do a recheck because realy why adding much work in a short period of time if they didn't find something suspicious?
but me I have nothing to worry eccept my luck because i only placed one entry & got "selected"...

e launched a project to learn about the entrepreneurial landscape there. Over eight months, we surveyed 153 workers who had studied or worked in the U.S.and returned to India to start companies, and 111 who went back to China. We detail our findings in our new study, The Grass Is Indeed Greener in India and China for Returnee Entrepreneurs. It shows that the majority of returnee entrepreneurs are doing better at home than they believe they would do in the U.S.

Why did they return home? Because of burgeoning economies, access to local markets, and family ties. More than 60 percent of Indian and 90 percent of Chinese returnees said the economic opportunities in their countries were a major factor in their return. Seventy-eight percent of Chinese were lured by the local markets, as were 53 percent of Indians. And 76 percent of Indians and 51 percent of Chinese said family ties were strong factors.

Respondents took pride in contributing to their home country's economic development. More than 60 percent of Indians and 51 percent of Chinese rated it as very important. Government incentives weren't at all important for Indians, but were very important to 23 percent of Chinese. Only 10 percent of Indians and Chinese said they left the U.S. because they had to; others may have been frustrated with their visa situation but had other, more important reasons for returning home.

How does their situation in their native countries compare to the U.S.? Surprisingly, 72 percent of Indian and 81 percent of Chinese returnees said the opportunities to start their own businesses were better in their home countries. Speed of professional growth was also better back home for the majority of Indians (54 percent) and Chinese (68 percent). And the quality of life was better or at least equal to what they'd enjoyed in the U.S. for 56 percent of Indians and 59 percent of Chinese.

Read it again jayo2k...I just finished reading it and it confirmed what I suspected, they do not check all 19 mill entries, only the selected.

See the quote below..

SENIOR STATE DEPARTMENT OFFICIAL: The main reason is that as part of the application process, you may only submit one application. So we - during the last six months since the first selection process, we have gone through all of the selectees to ensure that they had applied appropriately and that they had only applied once. We will now do that with the new selection group, but we are going to redouble our efforts to make sure we can do it in a shortened time, because our goal is to not have it affect the visa processing year which begins on October 1st, 2011. So we hope that we can - this will not have any impact on the processing of these visas, that we will process these as normal when we are permitted to start processing, which is not before October 1st, 2011.



QUESTION: Right. But it's not a new selection group, because if I understood you correctly, these - precisely the same 19.6 million entries that will now be processed with the fixed computer program -



SENIOR STATE DEPARTMENT OFFICIAL: That's correct, but we did not do the thorough vetting until we had selected out because that's - obviously, that would be even that much more work to do 19 million. We select out randomly from those who submitted, and then we do a thorough vetting to say that they are fully qualified as far as their applications prior to notifying them that they can continue to qualify. So for example, if - to see if they apply twice, we don't do that against the 19 million.

People migrate where they perceive greater economic opportunities and standard of living. If today people perceive China and India to be more facilitating of their endeavours then that's where they will go, likewise for the USA. Some people will stay because it's not economically wise for them to make that move. In the end it boils down to what people want for themselves economically and socially wherever that maybe.
 
India & especialy china are not as welcoming as the usa

Oh, this explains why we always have people in the forum worried that they either misspelled their names or their parents name, or the date of birth is slightly wrong. I always felt sorry for them though wondered how can you misspell your name since you are not under much time pressure when you enter the lottery. I think a bunch of cheaters still make it through.

I hear you and agree that I never understood how people don't know their name or their parents name...but if it comes to a typo error or little mistake that is something that can happen and it happened to my friend.

Two years ago when she won the NL she wanted to check with KC and they couldn't find her when she gave her DOB. They had giving her the option to guess what it could be and she was really concerned since she clearly knows what they it is. After calling back and giving a couple of different dates she found out her birth month and date were correct by the last digit of the birth year was wrong and was her siblings birth year...She send multiple proof of her correct birth year and what her siblings birth year was and it didn't come up at the interview. This was not like a complete different name or anything like that.
 
Which means that they will have to check at least 1,666 winning entries per day in order to meet the deadline.
Previously they mentioned they could do all 100,000 selections within 24 hours - the software they use have those capabilities. I remember a press release for the software.
So we - during the last six months since the first selection process, we have gone through all of the selectees to ensure that they had applied appropriately and that they had only applied once.
This does not look like they could really do that within 24 hours as was said before
 
India & especialy china are not as welcoming as the usa

Funny you should say that. They are welcoming more Americans. The number of American expats in China is growing. A lot more americans are looking for jobs outside of the US because its harder to find jobs in their own country.
 
China takes the cream of the cream (can't blamee for that) while usa have a less strict policy
