Hi folks,
I have recently gotten the DV-2006 green card winning notification letter.
Here is my situation:
I am on H1-B, already filed for green card thru my company (employment based). Application waiting somewhere in DOL, since 2003.
I have several questions:
1. Can I file for AOS in the States or I have to submit my papers to the Kentucky Center and go for an interview in my native country?
2. Which one in your opinion is preferrable? AOS here or interview in the local Consulate - advantages and disadvantages?
3. If I choose AOS do I still have to file all the paperwork thru KCC or this is not neccessary?
4. What would be the right approach? Calling USCIS or KCC and asking them? Try the 1-800# for USCIS or try thru the local office. It's always very tough reaching those guys, so I really don't know.
Thanks in advance for your help and ideas.
