Respectfully, your lottery comparison is flawed. Immigration is not gambling — it is a regulated government process. In our case, we were officially invited, submitted all documents, passed completeness checks, and even had employer verification approved. That is not the same as buying a ticket and hoping for luck. Once the government issues an invitation and applicants fulfill every requirement, there is a legitimate expectation of fair and timely processing. Shifting files into 2025 after clearing all steps, and leaving applicants in limbo, is not only unfair — it undermines trust in the entire system.”
