Pheww. Thanks!

I've been reading about photo re-use while applying for DV and I'm a bit concerned since I'm pretty sure I re-used an older photo of mine, with which I've applied for DV before. My wife is the primary applicant, and I used an older photo for her as well, but that was definitely not used for DV...

Hello all. Me and my wife both don't have proper documentation of vaccination since our country doesn't maintain/provide those well. We did receive most of the vaccines but don't have proof. When we go to the doctor's office, and they do the tests, they find the antibodies for most of those...

As per the AOS spreadsheet - you could include bank statements, payslips for 3-6 months, so you probably don't have to go beyond May. However, it recommends w2s from 1-3 years so it makes sense to include older w2s as well since you'll only have 1 otherwise (or None depending on when you get...

Got it. Thanks!

In a similar situation here. My income should be enough to satisfy the public charge requirements. Is there a need to file I-134 in this kind of scenario?

Thank you!

Hello all. I had sent the DV payment around 10 days ago and got my return envelope back today, with what I guess is the stamped receipt inside, but I wasn't sure. I basically got back the same form I'd filled out, with name, CN, payment amount ($660), etc., as instructed in the spreadsheet. It...

Thanks!

Hello folks. I submitted DS260s for me and my wife (primary applicant) in May, a few days after her selection (2025AS4***). She's a nurse and plans to continue working as a nurse here in the US. Actually we're waiting on her EAD, through another immigration process, and she may be already...

You should bring proof that you've passed high school level (12th grade equivalent) of education - hence your high school diploma. You can bring additional degrees if you like but the high school diploma is a must.

Thanks a lot again. I hadn't considered all these points before. Based on the points you've made along with @Sm1smom and @EURO2014, I feel very strongly now that I must stick with AOS. Part of my reasoning was that the apparent simplicity of the CP process, which isn't that simple if we're...

Thanks a tonne! So seems like I got the attribution correct but the application wrong. So many subtle points to think about and grasp. If it weren't for you folks here, I'm sure many of us would've been lost in the darkness.

I also wanted to add that I noticed somewhere else in the Forum @Sm1smom posted this (apologies if it's attributed wrongly, I couldn't find the original post, but had saved this for my reference) - So seems like backlog won't be a problem but potentially the background check? But that...

What is your CN number?

Thanks @EURO2014. Britsimon's foecast is that the CN's for Nepal will go up but will hit the limit from 7300-7800, possibly around 7500. My CN is just over 7500. You can see how this is a cause for concern for me :(

Hello All, I'm getting super stressed out at this point. My CN number is AS75** and I'm from Nepal. I'm wondering if it is logical to switch to CP at this point (given the cut-off situation of Nepal). I've talked to @Britsimon and he seems to think it might not be a good idea. Wanted to see...

Hello! We're all on the same boat :) @Britsimon does region specific analysis in his blog here: http://britsimonsays.com/ There's plenty of Iran-specific information there as well.

True indeed, cannot say for certainty. Thanks again!

Thanks a lot Mom! Great help as always. So it seems like basically it boils down to - If I want to proceed with AOS, I must not travel given my circumstances/time consideration. If I decide I absolutely must travel and decide not to proceed with AOS, I should be fine as long as I'm not...
