interview letter
Hi guys
today we received biometrics letter. but it is for the 3rd week of July.so we are planning for walk in bio.
I have a question though..
I know that walk in bio does not speed up the process, but it only affects EAD.
is bio appointment somehow related to interview letter?I mean, is it possible to expedite the case(requesting for earlier interview date) by calling local USCIS office and KCC?How long does it usually take to get interview letter after the biometrics is done?
to rainyman: what have you done guys?did you have your bio along with your wife's appointment?have you received interview letter?

Hi every one I really need urgent help from every one of you friends
My application been rejected for the third time for the same reason which is " You have submitted a notice not authorized from DOS please check the www.dvlottery.state.gov "
I print the winning letter from the website with the date of 7/15/2011
I include also the letter from KCC when I ask them to do AOS they send me letter but without the logo only my info and the barcode so I think this letter the problem any one has any idea please

Interview Timing
Hello,
I do not think you expedite the interview. Cases are handled in the order they are accepted. The only thing that you can do earlier is the biometrics, provided that you have your biometrics letter with you. This greatly depends on your FO's policy. I had no trouble doing it at the Orlando field office.
You can check the approximate time that it will take to process the I-485 here:

Hi guys,
I have checked the timelines of my FO, and unfortunately it has very long processing time.I am worried that visa numbers will be exhausted very early...Have you heard of any case,where DV winner requested from his/her FO for an earlier interview appointment during the infopass?
does anyone know whether there was anyone in the past whose application was rejected due to unavailability of visa numbers?

In the past years winners with high CNs were given the visa even at September, while we still have 3 months left. So lets hope that this year it will be same. As for infopass to talk about the interview date I don't think it will hurt your case.

Spreadsheet
Congratulations to all of you that have your visas. For the rest of us, let's keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best. We have another 90 days to go.
The DV AOS community has maintained a spreadsheet to track their progress in previous years. Do we have one for this year? It'd be a good idea to maintain this in addition to our signatures so we have a snapshot of everyone's progress (timelines, FOs etc.)

That is correct. You will be assigned a new A#, much different than your OPT A#.
I did provide my OPT A# too in those forms and now have a new A# which will be the number on the face of your GC.

I was thinking the same before I read like last 30 pages of the last year's forum http://forums.immigration.com/showthread.php?312270-DV-2011-AOS-Only. It's a lot but it's worth reading.
Though I cant assure you, I think we will be fine. The announced processing time on the website scares you but it is my understanding that DV winners are the expedited cases and it does not follow the rules.
I took a half day off from work for the stuff I have to do near the ASC this Thursday the 5th. I will try to see if they let me in. I live in Atlanta area. I will let you know how it goes.
My case has been approved mine and my husband's.
I had my interview on june 6th and today we got our sms and email notifications that our cases has been registered as permanent .....
I thank you all for your help, encouragement an good wishes thru this journey.
I hope everyone will get approved soon.
Happy 4th everyone!

Approval
Glad to hear that you are getting to the end of the journey successfully.
My case is also like yours in that I have to wait another one month after my interview. At the end of our interview the officer told us he needs to take a look at our back ground files and it would take another 30 days !!! I asked him if my KCC file has been received and he was like "What is KCC file" !?
I guess I am the first DV case in the history of this small FO. I called KCC and was told that my KCC file has not been requested yet and I have to make an infopass. However during infopass the officers are really unwilling to give any information regarding my case, just saying that the average possessing time in this FO is 4 months, go and wait. This is just getting embarrassing !!
