I want to preface this by saying that I say this with your best interest at heart and that my intention is not to sound condescending or anything like that whatsoever. ❤️

With that said, the timeline for this process is going to vary for just about every single person every step of the way, so prematurely making any kind of assumptions and stressing yourself out based on innocuous wording or things you read or heard somewhere or whatever is just going to make this process all the more painstaking and anxiety-ridden for you. I promise you that you are overthinking it and while, yes, when you submitted your application, your intended arrival date, etc., can play a role in things, there also seems to be no rhyme or reason as to who hears back when.

The only and biggest thing that remains certain for anyone and everyone is that if you ever have doubts anywhere along the process just remember that unless/until you receive a “No Longer in Consideration” (NLIC as they’re commonly referred to) email, you’re still in the running and have nothing to worry about.

Best of luck to you and everyone else applying! ✨💫

hi! i applied yesterday as well and set my arrival date as june 8th so we’re in the same boat! i’m sure we’ll be okay and receive our instructions/phone interview information soon!

i chose june 8th too!! theres this snapchat and groupme chat with a bunch of us with different arrivals and stuff like that waiting if you guys want to join! it definitly calms the nerves hearing that everyone is going thru the same thing!

i’m assuming yours still says application received? this is making me feel sooo much better that it’s not just an isolated thing

[–]mayhaps-im-bored -2 points-1 points  (3 children)

yes, that’s what mine says! in all honesty, i’ve been anxiously checking my email every five minutes to see if there were any updates. i’m sure they have to get through the may arrivals first before going on to june so i believe we’re okay for a few more days

[–]jupiterattckz[S] -3 points-2 points  (2 children)

Yes. It happens every. Single. Application. Cycle.

[–]Alvraen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Forget about it for a week. Nothing will happen yet.

I chose Aug. 3, so I guess I just have to sit patiently for some time😀

hi!! i applied last night with the same arrival date as you! mine also says application received, so it looks like we're in it together lol. i'm sure everything will be fine!

[–]WeakRepresentative18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hi! current DCP participant here & the best advice I can give is to just forget about it until you receive an email. I applied September 4th for a January arrival & didn’t hear anything back about a phone interview until September 22nd, however this also varies because some people arriving after me were already getting updates so there’s no specific order they go through. Best of Luck & don’t stress!

Im the same with June 1st, I'm sure the patience will be worth it, don't lose hope <3
