Visa Bulletin for November 2023!
News
The Visa Bulletin for NOVEMBER 2023 was published late last week! It shows the cut-off numbers to apply during the month of December 2023 as part of the DV 2024 Program. For December, there were movements in the cut-off numbers of all the regions and exception countries.
December Cut-Off Numbers
For December, the cut-offs numbers that will apply in the various regions and exception countries as revealed in the Visa Bulletin for November are shown below. Those cut-off numbers identify the case numbers that are eligible for interview during the month of December 2023 as part of the DV 2024 Program.
Let us be reminded that a case being eligible for interview for a given month does not mean that that case will be scheduled for the month concerned at all cost. A number of other factors come into play to determine the cases that will ultimately be served their interview notification.
Case Numbers Concerned
With the publication of the Visa Bulletin for November 2023, cases whose case numbers are eligible for interview during the month of December 2023 in the various regions and exception countries are as follows:
AFRICA: Case Numbers 1 through 10,999;
Except: ALGERIA: Case Numbers 1 through 10,499; EGYPT: Case Numbers 1 through 9,999 and MOROCCO: (same as for Egypt) Case Numbers 1 through 9,999
ASIA: Case Numbers 1 through 2,999;
Except: IRAN: Case Numbers 1 through 2,799 and NEPAL: Case Numbers 1 through 2,499
EUROPE: Case Numbers 1 through 5,999;
Except: RUSSIA: Case Numbers 1 through 5,899 and UZBEKISTAN: Case Numbers 1 through 2,999;
NORTH AMERICA: Case Numbers 1 to 4;
OCEANIA: Case Numbers 1 through 449;
SOUTH AMERICA: Case Numbers 1 through 599.
Conclusion
Cases whose case numbers are the same or higher than their regional or country cut-off are still not current or eligible for interview. Such cases can not expect to receive their interview notification yet. Applicants concerned must check the Visa Bulletin when it is published in November – to ascertain the status of their case number.
The Visa Bulletin is published every month, and it is by means of this tool that Diversiy Visa applicants get to know the month when their case becomes eligible for interview. Publication of the next Visa Bulletin – the fourth showing cut-offs for the DV 2024 Program – will be done some time in November. The cut-offs shown in that Visa Bulletin will be for JANUARY2024 interviews.

Hello Great Job!
My case number is 697x and I submitted my I-485 form for adjustment of status but USCIS returned my application package stating that I submitted before the block of case number authorized and that I should continue to watch DV website.
I do not understand what this means and I called USCIS but the officer I spoke with was not able to help me establish what is happening.
Any idea about this issue?
