Yeah, you're probably right. Maybe they are not reviewing our submissions because there are not so many people from the Balkans who applied. Maybe they are waiting for more people to apply. Who knows...

I think they not only see your applicant ID number at first but some additional information like your location pops up as well. They use very advanced software for this, who knows...
But one thing is for sure : just because someone applied very early before the big wave of applicants hit (28th,29th ect. of January) that doesn't mean their application had any priority.
Maybe we just have to wait and wait until our time comes... but it's really depressing
btw. you nailed this profile photo, looks fantastic

I think they already have some AD dates in their mind, and if there is one for the Balkan area in late March, lets say, they will review our applications later on.

Thanks for the nice comment on my photo ;)

Until when can we apply? ????
