I Have a CN of 2014AF00021xxx..Can anyone guesstimate when my interview could be schedule..I'm trying to play the visa bulletin game but honestly I'm lost.well gladly appreciate your urgent response..
They are not published for recent years. But their sum is 50000 (or maybe 55000 minus Nacara). In DV-11 9167 visas for AS were issued, and that is probably close to the quota for AS unless it has been changed since then.What are the region quotas?
I did not mean to be funny. I just think that regional quota will be exhausted earlier.Which is like telling someone in a plane crash, "don't worry about dying when you hit the ground, you'll be dead from lack of oxygen before that...."
LOL - sorry - I just thought it was funny....

I know quotas for AS for 1995 through 2002 without 2000I thought AS allocated for 15% of the visa available from 50,000. So, it should be 7,500 but I also notice in DV-10 and DV-11 has more than 7,500.
I'm surprised (and not in a good way) that the cutoffs are lower than last year's even though we have many more selectees this year!!
Also, on 1NL, they told us 125,000 were selected, but in the bulletin, they say "140,660 applicants have been registered and notified and may now make an application for an immigrant visa." Does this mean they made a second round of notifications??? I'm totally confused now. Where do the extra 15,660 applicants come from, if not for a second group that were notified after the rest of us.

Not for all previous years. Just for several recent years. Where they did not have so many winners.If this as simple as u mentioned it, Asia would have not continued getting current till all current in august.... i think everybody is going to get a chance for interview... This has been the case for all the previous years

I am sorry, but britsimon just made my morning. This is very funny. exactly what i needed to get through a crazy morning.
Unfortunately, that only works for cases like DV-12 (when people did not know they won).Here's my calculation by region. According to this theory, the DV2014 was launched in the software that was used in July 2011 to DV12. Raevskii, ready? Here we go -
Africa - 50,000 winnings 13582 visas were issued. Count how many visas will be issued in 2014, 61943 * 13582/50000 = 16826 visas.
Europe - wins on 31001 13093 visas were issued. We believe 46588 * 13093/31001 = 19676 visa.
Asia - to 15002 wins 6481 visas were issued. We believe 23270 * 6481/15002 = 10052 visa.
I wondered where he got Oceania and South America a large number of winners. It turns out to be completed by the end of the global quota.
Oceania - wins for 2001 issued 562 visas. We think 4215 * 562/2001 = 1,183 visas.
South America, for 2002 wins were issued 742 visas. We think 4620 * 742/2002 = 1,712 visas.
We summarize: 16826 +19676 +10052 +1183 +1712 +10 = 49459. It all fits.
Large rooms, sleep well, gets to your turn.
Not convinced, such speculation can be applied to all the years. I need the numbers. You get them before I ever asked for. I gave you the basic convincing calculations. They are based on official statistics. 32000 forgotten do not tell me.Unfortunately, that only works for cases like DV-12 (when people did not know they won).
Exactly. If you repeat your calculations to any year (except 2012), you will get an extremely low, absolutely unrealistic number of visas per year. This type of calculation only works in case of a disaster year, like 2012. So DOS produced an excessive amount of winners, possibly just in case of a disaster.Not convinced, such speculation can be applied to all the years.
Let's count. DV10 ~100,000 winners = 50000 visa, DV11 ~100,000 winners = 50000 visa, DV13 ~115,000 winners = 50000 visa.Exactly.
