Hi Inlove, Yes our green cards arrived in the mail on Saturday, thank you for asking ! I also want to say to everyone the advice offered by anti-climacus is as good as any other given on this board. We would all be wise to heed it as I was also guilty of some of the things he described...

Inlove, I'm no expert so this is just my opinion... I would say that if time is an issue (which it really was for us since DV visas need to be approved by September 30th and I was'nt prepared to wait for my FP appointment) then go right ahead and try for a walk-in appointment. Both my wife...

Anti-climacus and Inlove, thank you. Yes it all worked out very well for us and the cost and time saved of winning DV2005 as well as getting to apply through DORA was huge. We are citizens of South Africa. If anyone has any other questions about our whole process please feel free to ask.

Approval today for DORA I've not been a regular poster here but wanted to update the forum on my (and my wifes) experience. It may help some of you in a similair situation. We live in Dallas and my wife won the DV2005 program so we went ahead and enrolled in the DORA program. Timeline...

Awaiting DORA for DV 2005 Hi All, My wife won the DV 2005 lottery so I get to apply with her, but her case number was quite high (Africa region) and since all DV GC's need to be approved by fiscal year-end (Sept. 2005) the DORA program was our only option. The current message for both of...

Also waiting for DORA Hi Piyalove, Well it seems we have a similair timeline as you do (see below) so lets see how we do before the 30 September. :confused: My wife won the DV 2005 lottery so I get to apply with her. :) Timeline: 23 June 2005: Appointment @ DORA Dallas, all forms...

Both my wife and I just walked-in (separate days) about 3 weeks ahead of our scheduled dates and they allowed both of us to get early fingerprinting right there and then, and that could end up being the difference between us getting our cards or not, we'll see. However I think the follwing is...

I'm no guru, but I believe going to a different ASC is OK. They all share the same database and I'm told that USCIS has access to the fingerprints almost instantaneously. Good luck.

Hi all, Was wondering if anybody had any information for me. Here's my status... My wife won the DV 2005 and we are currently in Dallas on my H1B so we're going for an adjustment of status I-485 through the DORA program, which aims to complete the whole process in 90 calendar days. Our...

how long do you think the FP will take before it's accepted by USCIS ? I have FP on 8/17 but think it might be too late as I won the GC lottery and need to have I485 approved by 30 Sept.

Hi Phil, I'm in the same position as you here in Dallas. I won the GC lottery and need to get my status adjusted by 30th September otherwise I won't get my GC. The only appointment I got was 17 August for my fingerprints but I fear that will take too long. I tried once already going to the...
