I hope what they told you was right. At this moment I have no idea who knows what... Are you "ab" on the spreadsheet? Which field office are you allocated to? Just curious...

I called KCC, when I asked the lady if my file was requested, she said their IT people were still trying to figure out a way to transfer the files to USCIS. No files had been sent yet. She said January would be a reasonable time to follow up. I asked her about the total number of visas that can...

Yep, you were the one I saw on the spreadsheet :D Thanks for getting back on this!

Okay, thanks for the info! It seems like I have some digging to do.

Hey, sorry if I was confusing, I didn't mean to argue. However, there is another factor for me that makes me more time-sensitive. Thanks to the economy getting better more of my co-workers are being offered positions paying better salaries so people (not people on visa) have been leaving. It is...

Yes, I can definitely see your point. As I am on H1B and is going down that route as well, and have multiple friends who are in the process or had got rejected already, I know that is not an easy one. I understand that we can start from the I-485, which is a huge help. On the same token, in our...

Yeah I see that. With that and yet another government shutdown looming I hope the effects won't be significant...:( Obviously as we are pressed for time we are more sensitive to everything and think too much into things. I saw in prior years' timelines that it is faster and depends on the FOs as...

I am a bit confused. I understand that KCC is the one administering the DV program. However, I was under the impression that the AoS cases are transferred to USCIS field offices for processing. So right now we are actually waiting on KCC to make the move? I thought it was the FO. Anyway, I hope...

I was wondering about the same thing. I saw that in prior year people current Oct-Nov started to get letters around January-March. However, I was also wondering if the immigration reform can result in delays. In October there were news around the net about USCIS getting ready for the immigration...

I am not an expert, but I think you got a confirmation page for the DS260. As I remember after 6 or 7 weeks I got an email into my spam folder saying something like "please see the letter attached, KCC" with the pdf attachment of the letter. I paid the $330 fee and I got the receipt back like in...

I hope for the same then... Do you think it is safe to assume that specific cases are allocated to IOs with the related experience (DV cases to IOs with DV experience)?

Yeah I hear you that it's a bit early. The reason I went to this appointment is that I had it set up and didn't want to waste it. It took an hour and a half and $2 parking, so I gave it a try. Who knew, I might have got some additional info. And at least I timed the traffic. It's funny because I...

Thanks for confirming, that's what I thought too. I got a bit scared first when she mentioned the 12 months. Good idea, I will schedule an appointment to mid- of late-December, just in case. I can always cancel it. Hopefully I don't even need to use that, or get better responses next time.

Hey Guys, I went to the InfoPass this morning to the Los Angeles FO, however I am not sure if the lady just wanted me out of the door. Her answers were so unrealistic that I don't know if she was right. First, she asked me why I was asking about a case that I filed only two months ago (Sept 17)...

Makes sense. I am eager to see how helpful IOs are at a FO. I hope they will turn out to be friendly. Thanks again!

Hey, Good points. I called KCC and they said my file had not been requested yet. They also said I need to go into the FO with the payment receipt and schedule the interview (I don't think they are actually right though). While at the infopass, can I politely push the IO to request the file from...

Hi Guys, I have another easy question for you. Back in the day, I scheduled a general speak to an immigration officer appointment at the local FO to the first week of November, just in case, as I am current in November. However, you guys already answered all my questions / found all the answers...

Okay, will do. Thanks for your thoughts!

Thanks for your quick response. Yeah I understand it is self sponsored. Bummer. I know it is hard to predict, and each case/IO is different, but in you personal opinion, if the IO sees that I am on my third employer sponsored visa and for that you have to have an employment agreement that they...

Hi everyone, Good thread, I like you guys are so responsive. May I have a question too? Sorry if it had already been answered somewhere in the 44 pages before. I'm on H1B, current in November, so I sent in everything on September 10 according to the early filing and did the biometrics two weeks...
