    DV2007 AOS Time Frame

    I did not write ( or at least I hope I didn't ) that only a few chose AOS if they win at the DV . If I well remember, I wrote that AOS for DV winners is a very small percentage of all the people doing AOS. AOS is not only for DV winners, it's also for GC through your employer, and spouses of...

    DV2007 AOS Time Frame

    Yes. If you were among the very low case numbers, and if your information has been processed ( by KCC : you sent your paperwork very soon after having received it ), then you could have your interview on Oct 1st. And if your interview is successful ( education, evidence of support, you paid the...

    DV2007 - Can I choose which consulate to go to?

    Hopefully, you will get other replies from experienced people. But, yes, you can contact KCC. I have always been pleased by the way I was treated when I was calling. You can expect to have your questions answered.

    Help , anybody can answer this question !!

    Thanks Anahit for advertising my post ! I do not understand why it has not been made into a sticky. But, I'm not the boss here... Maybe it's become Rajiv himself, or a moderator ( which we don't have in this DV forum ) did not write it.

    DV2007 - Can I choose which consulate to go to?

    1) I am not positive on that, but I would have said you can do it in London. I might be wrong on that, so listen to what other experienced people will say. 2) For your region, your number is not low, but it's not high either. Based on the last 3 DVs ( 04, 05 and 06 ), your number would...

    received NL

    Please specify if you already live ( legally ) in the US. I'll assume you're not. So, you are only left with the CP route : interview not in the US ( most likely your country of origin ) According to the visa bulletin for DV 2006, you would have probably been called in April. Remember...

    DV2007 AOS Time Frame

    You did not provide your case number, so it's hard to make a guess. worst case : your number is too high, or called too late and your case is not processed before Sept 30th 2007 => you do NOT get the GC. worst timeline : you are approved in late Sept ( but at least, you get it ! ) best...

    551 and GC

    No, the real GC ( plastic card ) is better than the stamp in your passport. The last is a temporary GC, valid for one year because getting the real GC can take up to 10months.

    DV 2006 Africa chances?

    May numbers: 20400 June numbers : 23500 July numbers : 27850 ( except for Nigeria and Ethiopia ) The numbers increased of 4000 ( approx ) per month for the last 3. I would say AF 35000 or 35500 for Sept. Of course, I am just guessing, based on the last numbers. It's impossible to know...

    To need or not to need I-134?? that is the question!!!

    USC : US citizen LPR : Legal Permanent Resident (GC holder) The affidavit of support form ( I 134 for DV winners ) has to be signed by a USC or a LPR only ( supposedly. So far I had not heard of AOSers able to sign for themselves ). But I agree with the previous post : YOU have to show...

    To need or not to need I-134?? that is the question!!!

    A I134 can be signed either by a USC or a LPR. So it seems strange that winners could sign their own I134 as they are not yet LPR. My own experience : DV 2005, F1 visa, chose CP My husband and I had just graduated ( MS degree from a top rated college ) : 2weeks before the interview. As...

    Hi Anahit, I do not understand either. I already sent two messages to the administrator ( there is no moderator for DV ). I can't do more, otherwise, I'm gonna get sued for harassment :p . Hi Funlu, I payed for lawyer. To be honest, I did it to buy my peace of mind which is priceless to...

    Direct me.

    It's a scam : _Case numbers for DV winners are different . _THe NL should come from KCC and be an officail mail package. It could only be an email if you had made an entry through sites like USAFIS, and the email would be from such a site. _You are not supposed to scan/send documents if you...

    What documents are required for N-400??

    Here is " A guide for Naturalization " ( form M476 ) . http://www.uscis.gov/graphics/services/natz/guide.htm There is a document checklist at the end .

    More tha 6 months less than 1 year

    I would disagree with you on that. The " A guide for Naturalization " says ( form M476 ) in the document checklist pages ( at the end ): _ absences < 6m : continuous residency not broken _absences >12m : continuous residency broken ( unless there is an approved N470 ). However, it says that...
