Signatures with information

[vadim88]

I see a lot of people with the following in their signature :

CN:2011AS00013XXX (Canada)
Oct 5 2009: DV Lottery Entered
May 19 2010: NL1 Received
June 14 2010: Forms sent to KCC
June 17 2010: USPS confirms the delivery
July 06 2010: KCC confirms the receipt of documents
CP: Nepal

I assume this has to do something with the lottery program and the documents sent to the USAGC, But i did not fill in the documents myself but used usafis.org i payed a few $$ and they take care of it for me. Was this a bad idea (besides the money waste) ? I mean they did submit the application and i got my confirmation number for lasts year lottery but i did not win of course. Can i learn anything from just looking at that number? Like what are my odds of wining or anything like that? And what's those stuff written in the signature and why do people share that info?

Ok, so vadim, this info that you see in the signiture is for people who where selected, who got notification and start processing their papers further in order to get the green card.

I see, So this is only for the ones who actually won the lottery?

 

[natta]

Yes.
Millions of people apply but only 100,000 are selected. So this is for people that were actually selected.
P.S. where are you from?
