    DV 2016 AOS Only

    Was just filling out Form I-131 to submit with my AOS package and am slightly confused about what to write for Part 7 "On a separate sheet of paper, explain how you qualify for an Advance Parole Document, and what circumstances warrant issuance of advance parole. Include copies of documents you...

    DV 2016 AOS Only

    I'm about to write my personal check to submit with my AOS package was reading this page http://www.uscis.gov/forms/paying-immigration-fees and saw that is says... Personal checks must be pre-printed with the name of the bank and the account holder. Also, the account holder’s address and phone...

    Many of the forms ask for an Alien Registration Number - I just want to be sure we don't have this yet so we should just be leaving this blank, correct?

    I went to a different clinic to have my tetanus shot, not the same place I had my medical done at. The clinic I went to for my shot accepted my insurance and gave me a certificate to take back to the doctor as proof that I had the shot so they could mark my medical paperwork accordingly.

    I thought the exact same thing - I'm waiting, too. Mom - do we have to mail it in exactly on October 1, or if we did it a couple of days prior so it got there on October 1, is that acceptable (without it being considered as early filing)?

    And another question haha... I was reading through last years AOS thread - someone had mentioned including a copy of the early filing policy memorandum as well as a copy of the September 2015 Visa Bulletin that shows the October DV 2016 numbers that become current. If we decide to file early, do...

    This makes me super happy - OK, thank you. Think I'll include it just to be safe... If I have had my interview by then and I'm just waiting for my GC, I'll do what you recommended and ask for the I-551 stamp. If not, I will probably just not go to avoid the risk associated with leaving the US...

    This makes perfect sense - thank you for clearing that up for me! And if I do include the I-131 with my AOS package, as I am currently an E3 visa holder, this means I need to submit a $360 additional payment to cover the cost of filing this form?

    I know we discussed form I-131 earlier when I had some questions about leisure travel... but I have an entire company (work) trip scheduled for late January 2016 (it's a cruise so we will be leaving port from Tampa and heading to Mexico and back)... What are my options here? If my interview is...

    Finally got the entire contents of my AOS package filled out and put together - now just waiting for my 2nd NL to come through so I can include it and then just need to have some US-sized passport photos taken and I'm done. I'm not going to file early and risk being denied - I am going to wait...

    Hey Mom - just got up to form I-797 on the spreadsheet. I know this says "if applicable", so I'm assuming I would know if I had one since it isn't a form you can fill out. I found a picture of one online and have never seen it before, so I'm guessing I fall into the not applicable category, but...

    Hey Mom - I am an E3 visa holder and just want to confirm that since I am a non-immigrant in E status seeking AOS, I need to submit this additional form along with my I-485: http://www.uscis.gov/i-508 I pay all income taxes though and am not a diplomat, so I don't understand fully what exactly...

    Just had my medical today. They accepted my immunization records from Australia, so only had to pay the examination fee - after shopping around, the best rate in the Orlando/Winter Park, FL area (without any shots) was $160 which is less than what I was expecting. Going back on Wednesday for my...

    Ah, sorry, missed that one. OK then, so I guess that brings me back to my initial questions... 1. My number just became current for October. I am still yet to receive my 2NL - should I be worried? I want to get my medical exam booked in - should I be waiting to receive my 2NL or go ahead and...
