Britsimon, you were truly fantastic as always. You figured it all out approx. 1,5 days sooner than DoS. They should offer you a job as DV2017 program IT director. Congratulations to all the winners all over the world!

Congrats! Congrats! Just in the very same minute another guy posted on the U.S. Department of State: Consular Affairs FB page that his time out error just changed to 'you have been selected'... and the winners will now start turning up hopefully :)

I don’t doubt that testing took place I guess I am just questioning why they did not believe the masses, the thousands of people who called them, e-mailed them, flagged the issue on Twitter, Facebook... they keep saying nope, we are good, 12,000 people confirmed winning entries, blah blah. And...

But how can they not check ahead of 5th May that the winner notifications are loaded and visible? All it would take from their end is someone to trial a simple move like outside of their network entering one winner's details and see what the winner sees, surely it can't be that difficult. And...

I first entered using the official website in 2005 I think. I applied 6 times between 2005 and 2013 (forgot about it in some years...) and finally my 2013 submission was selected.

Hi Yun, the USCIS website got updated today (24 hrs later) with the tracking number, so I guess you should see your tracking number by now as well. Delivery is expected on Monday.

Here are my dates: Interview: December 05 Paid fee: January 01 POE in Miami: January 22 SSC produced: January 27 USCIS ELIS case received date: February 06 USCIS status tracker message 'sent a notice' (lockbox): February 25 USCIS message that green card was mailed to the address: March 06 :)...

Hi, just read carefully Sherryxllq's and SusieQQQ's response above - they are explaining that 'optimized' means green card production has been triggered and the notice they will send is the welcome notice for new immigrants. It's my understanding that the messages displayed on...

Great, t Great, thanks so much for sharing this information!

So their website says: How do I know when the Lockbox facility has accepted my form? We will send you an e-Notification if you complete Form G-1145 and clip it to the front of your application package. In all cases, we will mail you a Form, I-797C, Notice of Action, receipt notice that shows...

Hi folks, same situation here as Sherryxllq's... I entered the US on 22 Jan., on 24 Feb. my case moved to 'optimized' on USCIS Elis, and the case tracker says: Case Accepted By The USCIS Lockbox On February 24, 2015, we accepted your Form OS155A, Immigrant Visa and Alien Registration, Receipt...

Hi guys, I entered the States on 22 Jan., paid the immigration fee a few weeks before that. My SSC was printed on 27 Jan. already which is great and I was surprised how quickly it was produced. My status on USCIS ELIS is still on 'accepted' so stalking the status check there is my new hobby :D

Great info! Just wanted to flag that I know of cases (not AoS) that are still showing as at NVC even though interview was scheduled, the case was approved at the embassy interview and passport was sent back already. Might be just a small handful of cases though (some embassies are slacking...

Congratulations to Iliona, Bleri, EU2015, lutsss, enodr, AzAnt, alman and janar2015 on getting the immigrant visa! It's great to see so many people with the recent 'issued' status. Sunny Girl, I'm sure you'll be fine too and they will soon process your papers. ;)

If I completed those instructions... well I didn't because I still live in the UK so I paid via a different method, but of course you should follow the outlined steps with the bank transfer as your situation is slightly different. Good luck!

Hi Flori, I know I'm not BritSimon but since I also obtained this doc. just a few months ago, maybe I can help too: ACRO accepts copies of documents from "official bodies" e.g. bank statements, letters from a GP, letters from a school or college, water/gas/electricity bills, phone bills etc. If...

Hi EmiHami, you need police certificate from a country where you previously resided if you lived there for more than 6 months. I believe if you did not move back to a given country, a police cert. older than 6 months would be fine. You can also check the country reciprocity site to see what...

If the police certificate in your current country of residence is valid for 3 months, then obtain one that is not older than 3 months from the date of your interview. For example, if you have your interview in Abu Dhabi around April / May and they need police certificate not older than 3 months...

Thanks a lot for your response. This info means those who'd like to avoid filing for 2014 should only go through a POE after January 1st, 2015.
