Visa Bulletin: September 2013 (Coming Soon)

Maybe....at this stage nothing can guarantee ,every ready case will have an interview for sure.Maybe because of the quota per country issue or maybe because visas will be exhausted before the FY ending....less likely...since they never met the 55000 figure.

Did you count the total of visas issued per region till this latest days?Do you think the program will end ,visa under filled...again?Like with perhaps 3000 visas wasted?
 
Will this be an example of high selectees country that exceed the country quota?
Unlikely
253 admin processing,
941 issued
1947 ready
358 refused
7 transfer
3506 total

Ready is more than the rest of cases.
Also, even if they issue all Ready, that will still be under 3500

I did count, the results are in the tab "Reg Data".
As I said before, some consulates and AOS are not counted in CEAC system. But about 97% visas should be included for AF and about 96% for AF region.

Hmmm... weird. Could be visa exhausted.

Great,didn't see it!
I would have loved to make that counting work if i had had time!
 
I still don't understand the reason why so many current numbers are still on Ready status.That means those people never attended their interviews or never got any interview scheduled at all,like they were some how disqualified in KCC after sending their forms?Or simply the embassies doesn't have updated the system?
Btw I believe in your theory.
Regards.

For example I was scheduled for interview in April , but I didn't go because I already got my GC , my wife is a USC, I already sent an email to the embassy informing them that
 
when does second letter of DV 2014 starts to come?

Hi everyone
I am dv-selectee of 2014 from asia and my case no is 2014AS00002*** . In which month i can get my second letter?

thanks
 
i have see in another forum something someone now something about this? regarding Visa Bulletin, you should have already know that the current government (DHS site) around the 10th of the month (August this case). It includes both cut-off next month (September) and one for the second month (October). in fact cut-off is established before that date, at the time the files are sent to applicants consular section interview will take place. therefore delay the sending of documents end up losing "turn" had to wait at the very least a minimum of 3 months since they sent papers to KCC.
 
Cumulative distribution functions for regions are ready.
They all have the form of broken line with 2 breaks. Except 5 countries, which have only 1 break each. There is an additional 6th country like that (Uzbekistan) that is not represented in CEAC.
The right upper break corresponds to additional selection point.
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B2bWzexdyvIlNXBoWHJZbndaR1U/edit Africa, additional selection point is about 86300
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B2bWzexdyvIlcElEWkRZRmg0VDA/edit Asia, additional selection point is about 9450
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B2bWzexdyvIlVUxZT3p5MUNvVjQ/edit Europe, additional selection point is about 27700
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B2bWzexdyvIlZTh3SmNlbjBkM0U/edit Oceania, additional selection point is about 1445
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B2bWzexdyvIlQ18tVUxiTnJ2UVE/edit South America, additional selection point is about 1100

Just called KCC, the beautiful-sounding lady says that they don't have the numbers yet. Better luck next time!!!!

BTW, if the process is truly random from the very beginning until the very end, the distribution is uniform and cumulative distribution function is a straight line. Broken line is there is some kind of non-uniform factor. Either the draw is not truly random or the further processing is not uniform.
 
Should be out soon. 18 out of 19 US embassies reopen last Sunday. It closed around 10 days, so that might have some impact to the Visa Bulletin.
