US Immigration Question:When will my interview be?
Beginning with DV-99 the Embassy would not schedule green card interviews until the applicant’s “rank cut-off date” was current. The INS is also not supposed to accept an “adjustment of status” application to set up the interview in the US until the number is current, although policies seemed to differ throughout the United States. The “rank cut-off number” is at the bottom of the winner’s announcement and is the case number after 2000AS.
