For all those who will find out that they have been selected for DV 2013... post your questions here.
We will do our best to answer your questions as fully and thoroughly as possible.
Thank you for starting this thread. I have read 2012 AOS thread, yet I have a question:
1. It has been 3 weeks since i sent DS-122, 2 pictures, and bar code letter to KCC but they haven't reply. I sent an email last week, but no reply. Shall I call them or be patient?
Thank you
Hi I also have similar question. Has anyone received any further notification letter, mail, email from KCC? we sent that to them on 8th May and they received by 10th. Actually my wife (F2 visa, DV selectee), my daughter (F2) and I (F1) are doing AOS together. Can I send DV fee without any letter/email received from KCC?
This forum is really really helpful and hope you guys have answers of my question.

Just be patient... If by the end of week 4 you do not receive an email from KCC, you may call them.
They should send you an e-mail with an acknowledgment of intention to do AOS in the U.S. as well as the DV fee form.
Thanks for you quick response.
But how about my last concern ?
How should i let them know that my marital status has been changed to married ?
Do i need to send DS-230 along with DSP 122?
When should i pay the DV fees ?
And more importantly, while submitting DV lottery form back in 2011, i was single but now my marital status has been changed. So how should i incorporate my spouse( She is also here in US) in my application for further processing now.
Thanks in advance.

Today I received the following email from KCC, but they didn't mention anything about acknowledgment letter. Here is the email:
"Thank you for your inquiry.
Your forms have been received and are currently processing. Allow several weeks for processing. Interviews are scheduled numerically based on case numbers that have completed processing.
Please refer to the visa bulletin on our website at www.travel.state.gov after the 15th of each month to locate the current numbers being processed.
Entry Status Check (www.dvlottery.state.gov/ESC) will be the sole means of informing you of your selection for DV-2013, providing instructions to you on how to proceed with your application, and notifying you of your appointment for your immigrant visa interview, so it is essential you retain your confirmation number.
This will also be the means by which selectees are informed of their DV visa interview appointment date. The KCC will not be sending selectees mailed letters informing them of their interview appointment.

Hi everyone,
I sent the 2 forms and photos 3 weeks ago. I haven't received any confirmation from KCC. I just sent the letter by regular mail. I should have sent it Fedex. I called them last week they said they have thousands of unopened letters and they have to finish DV2012. They say I should call again in two weeks to confirm they received the letter.
ok I called again KCC, they received my forms but they aren't processed yet. The agent told me I should call again around August 15th. She recommended to pay the AOS DV fee of $330 not before I hear from them.
I suggest you go ahead and do that.
From what I understand there's no due date for the fee. They recommend not to pay it before they approve the change of status.
Like Amine said, if you have always been in status and never worked without authorization, there is no reason for your green card application not to be approved. Plus, if you have not paid the $330 DOS fee, your case cannot be approved anyways! You need to send a copy of the receipt of that $330 with your I-485 to USCIS. So go ahead and pay that $330 as soon as you can.From what I understand there's no due date for the fee. They recommend not to pay it before they approve the change of status.
guys,
I have two questions about my status as a F-1 visa holder:
1. I have been here in the US for four years. I have never left the county during these years and I have never registered on Summer terms. Therefore, there was no course work from June to September. But I was fully enrolled for the rest of academic year. I was told that it is not necessary to register for summer terms to maintain my status. Is this correct?
2. During these years I have had TA and RA appointments with my school. From school's perspective, we are employees. So we have SSN and we use employees insurance. Therefore, when I sent the form DS-122 to KCC, I mentioned my school as my latest employer. Did I do something wrong?
