CP = consular processing - when you have your interview at a consulate outside the US

AOS - either

(1) affidavit of support (for applicants who may not be able to meet the public charge criterion on their own)

or (2) adjustment of status - when you have your interview in the US as you are already there on another visa

FO - front office - who you will deal with if you are doing AOS in the US

Hi, My CN is 2015AF000106** meaning it's current but I didn't get message from KCC yet & I also checked online for possible schedule but I couldn't find any date or schedule for my case. When or how soon should I expect e-mail from KCC regarding my schedule since the bulletin is published?

Just to add that on another forum someone reported being denied because they could not complete his AOS in time, even though the FO had understood the urgency and scheduled him as fast as possible, he had just left it too late in submitting his packs because he didn't understand the urgency or the actual proper AOS process. My feeling is that high numbers are risky for AOS and CP is preferable even though it means flying home for a week or so.

Susie, thank you so much for your response!!

Hello liews0524,

I am not familiar with AOS, so my advise is to look at AOS specific thread.From my understanding, AOS seems to have more back and forth with the FO and therefore carry some risk (FO see way less DV cases than foreign post doing CP). This is supported by issues reported by other AOS DV selectee.

And yes, it will most likely be Sept (Aug if we are luckily) before 14000 become current. Once we have the CEAC data, we will have better idea by understanding the desity and response rate of 2015.

Good luck.

Thank you dvanxiety!!

Correct , if the cutoff is not higher than your CN for the last VB in Sept 2015, no visa will be available.

The Sept 2015 VB will be published around mid July.

if your DS260 is processed and your interview is scheduled, you should expect the 2NL around mid month to 2xth of the same month the VB is published.

There's delay in processing , so there are lots of folks waiting for 2NL even they are current. Once this backlog is cleared, we should see some improvement.

I filled & submitted the DS 260 form on 29th of July.

I filled & submitted the DS 260 form on 29th of July.

If you don't get notification this round then probably next month. Seems the delays at KCC remain quite long, around 4 months to process.
