We need to scrape to get the full picture of 2NLs that have gone out for April interviews. No further 2NLs will be sent for April interviews now, so the next 2NLs (for May interviews) will go out later this month.
Many hands make light work – please go to the Scraping site here to find out how you can help!

Hey Brit, you are such a blessing to this generation. More grace to you
May 7, 2019 at 11:12
Hello brit please what does scarping means
May 7, 2019 at 11:13
It’s a way we can all work together to gather data about cases in process right now.
May 7, 2019 at 11:15
Ohh I get it but is it so important to get it?
May 7, 2019 at 11:23
It’s useful to know progress… that’s all.

Hi Brit, Im an Iranian Origin and my interview was on 8th April in UAE (AbuDhabi)… officer hand me the red letter and said due to PP9645 I can process further but she told me if I provide an signed job offer letter from a US based company before 30th sep I then shall email AbuDhabi Embassy and they will decide if I can apply for waiver then!
Is that maybe because i live in UAE from the past 13 years?!!
And do you have any link which would help me undertsand what kind of job offer I shall look into? (The officer just said it should be a decent job!!!)
Cheerssss

I don’t have a link. I actually I think the CO has misled you about the chance to get a waiver. They are not being granted for ordinary scenarios such as wanting to take a job offer.
March 25, 2019 at 10:42
Can’t wait scrapping for May 2019
March 25, 2019 at 13:37
We are waiting until the end of the month.

hello Mr Simon,
please permit me ask. my uncle who is supposed to be my sponsor says he was a government worker but he is now retired so he cannot provide payslips. However he says he could try to make available the 1040 tax return documents. please is there an alternative document to add to that?
thanks
March 6, 2019 at 18:10
If the tax document shows enough income then that is OK on its own.
March 3, 2019 at 23:53
hi simon, does the embassy accept the laminated document?
March 4, 2019 at 00:17
Procedures vary by embassy, and I don’t track that detail on every embassy.
March 3, 2019 at 22:13
Hi,Brit
1.The birth certificate need to be translated in english? Because it is not specified
2.My sponsor give me her I-134 but doesnt want to give me her W2,1040, of her earnings it us going to be a problem for my green card?

March 3, 2019 at 22:24
1. It is specified in the instructions. Documents must be in English OR the official local language of the interviewing embassy. Read the instructions please!
2. The I-134 needs the accompanying proof.
March 3, 2019 at 20:43

Hi guys,
Yes, I am also waiting for his new article (especially) about Europe. But be in note, that he is living in a different time zone. In the FAQ, you can see, he is close to San Francisco.
So check your home town with his time zone:

Good luck to everyone! 🙂

March 3, 2019 at 20:55

March 3, 2019 at 20:34

March 3, 2019 at 20:25
Hi Simon.
Many EU hands helped scraping.
Please, they need someone to read between numbers? You.
Thank you.
March 3, 2019 at 19:39
Hi Sir,
When will you publish an article about EU?
Best regards.
March 3, 2019 at 18:14
Hi M. Britsimon and all. Please M. Brit, do you have a prediction for the next visa bulletin for Africa ?

March 3, 2019 at 12:27
Hi Brit,
My number is 20xxx, EU. Next month my number might be included in the visa bulletin and unfortunately I have not received any mail from KCC for sending the scanned documents. What should I do, wait or send the documents? Thanks
March 3, 2019 at 15:29
Send them.
March 3, 2019 at 07:19
Hi Brit,
I have since submitted my DS260 form in September 2018 and not yet receive any notification on the new documents processing procedure to send my documents. My case # in 2XXXX. I am now worrying about the whole processing as to when do I send my doc to KCC so that I can’t be left out. Do I have a chance to submit and be interview, when Sir?
Thanks,
Joe
March 3, 2019 at 15:26
Send your documents without being asked.
March 3, 2019 at 03:44
Hello Si
any speculation why some cases remain “Ready” even after interviews?
March 3, 2019 at 05:04
Embassies sometimes don’t update CEAC. It’s not a problem.
March 2, 2019 at 11:05
Hello Simon,
Our case number is EU179xx, we sent all documents to KCC on February 6th 2019 (it took very long to get the police certificates), and our case number is current for April, but haven’t received the 2NL yet. As per the scraping data, I see that other case numbers very closed to ours have already received the 2NL (literally 2 digits up got the 2NL already).
Is the backlog the reason of delaying the 2NLs and not being received for all cases current for April? Does this mean that our interview will be pushed to May instead? Do you have any idea if there is any chance to still have the interview scheduled in April?
Thanks a lot!
March 2, 2019 at 16:49
You submitted your documents too late for April interviews. It might be May.
March 25, 2019 at 16:15
Simon i have three questions:
1. Simon can you please explain to me why some Guys have Lower Case number and got call earlier, for example my case number is EU168xx and Gabriela has EU179xx ( They sent documents earlier than us, we sent on Feb 25 and they Feb 6 ).
2. Current Visa Bulletin in which dates it usually changes ?
3. Current Visa Bulletin what does that mean ? ( does that mean Interview will happen on April or Your Interview Date will be schedule )
March 25, 2019 at 17:34
1. No – I don’t know what order they have used.
2 & 3. https://britsimonsays.com/dv2019-basic-questions/
March 25, 2019 at 17:56
thanks a lot
March 2, 2019 at 08:44
We can see that we have 3500 visa difference between DV2018 & DV2019.
From dvcharts datas we see in DV2018;
March 2NLs there were 1257 ready cases, this year 1011,
April 2NLs – there were 934 ready cases, this year 880.
It means difference will not decrease, even will increase. I know that you have no idea about this year because of new document procedure, but I think you support this think that – if there is no chaos, this year will be current. Because even there are too many backlogs, and we care about density, capasity of embassies, but it`s possible that after 18500 also there will be noshows, people – can not fix new procedure in time. Thank you for your help & datas.
March 2, 2019 at 08:02
hello britsimon.
i hope you doing well i’m in Somalia also my passport is Somali i got my interv-appointment later from US-DJ-Embassy what do you advice me .
March 2, 2019 at 16:40
You would probably be wasting your time and money to attend the interview, because of the travel ban.
March 2, 2019 at 07:00
I would appreciate your thoughts about the backlog for Europe. It was a busy day yesterday.. 🙂 Thank you for this Blog!
March 2, 2019 at 16:41
I’ll write an article this weekend.
March 2, 2019 at 00:25
Hi Simon.
All done, do not solve anymore
After 6 hours scraping we hope to hear good news.
Thank you.
March 2, 2019 at 03:20
Thanks for the effort! The effort doesn’t guarantee “good” news. Just news.
March 1, 2019 at 19:09
