Called to submit documents but told other people are ahead

[randomperson2]

Listen, if they had to process people one by one, the larger lotteries would take a decade. From being requested to submit documents to a final non-appealable disqualification for someone who never even responds to the agent's communication is, last I looked, more than two weeks! Having gone through it myself, I understand that this whole process is hard on applicants emotionally, but you just need to manage your expectations throughout. Live like it's not going to happen.

I learned LATER that they then requested docs from logs 51-100. This was all for a single unit the was eventually given to someone with a log number in the low single digits.

I think its a data grab. And I will never again submit docs for a mini-lottery unless I have a single digit log number.

Sounds like a building I applied for. Was this recently ?

Example I was wondering I there was a rule like they can’t contact you to submit docs if there are more that 10 people ahead of you

They usually contact in batches. Still submit them.
