Adjustment of Status Adjudicator's Manual
Hi Guys,
This information was available when I googled.The text below is a copy from adjudicator's manual.
Entitlement to adjustment of status under the DV program lasts only through the end of the fiscal year (September 30) for which the applicant is selected in the lottery. (For example, the year of entitlement for all applicants registered for the DV-2001 program ends as of September 30, 2001, and DV adjustments may not be granted to DV-2001 applicants after that date. Similarly, spouses and children accompanying or following to join DV-2001 principals are only entitled to derivative DV status until September 30, 2001.) For that reason, it is extremely important that every office carefully monitor its DV adjustment caseload and take appropriate steps to ensure that (to the extent possible) all adjustment applications filed by DV lottery winners and their dependents are adjudicated no later than September 30.

No news from the KCC or the USCIS
Hi All,
I really appreciate this forum full of very good information. But after reading some of your posts I'm a little bit worried about something: I haven't receive any confirmation from the KCC yet.
Apparently some of you got a confirmation from them.
I sent in September my DSP122 and DS-230 (plus pictures) to the KCC, I requested an AOS as I'm living legally in the US for the last 7 years (in San Francisco) but since then I don't have any news.
What should be the next step ?
Thanks

Hi Numa,
That confirmation does not really matter.So many DV 2006 winners even did not send DS122 and get through with AOS fine.The most important thing was to pay DV fee to DOS,that you did and so no worries.
For your utmost satisfaction you can call or e-mail to KCC and ask for confirmation letter,atleast they will confirm they got your DSP122.
Good Luck!!!

Hey guys, I was wandering if anybody of you had the same situation.
October 27 I got a FP notice about the appointment on November 2nd. I did my biometrics on November 2nd and today I found in my mailbox a letter from the local immigration office saying that I need to do fingerprints for my I-485.
Is this some bug of their system or I need to go again? The letter says nothing about previous notice or any record of my biometrics. It says though "please disregard this notice if you have been fingerprinted within the last 90 days".
why my local office didn't see that I did biometrics?...

Hi Vinipux,
If you applied only for I-485 then you may as well disregard the second notice.
But if you applied also for EAD then yes, they do a separate set of fingerprints.
Check each letter and see if the CODE number is the same. FP have different codes depending on whether it's complete biometrics with photo or thumbs only etc.
Still, if you don't live too far from the Service Center you can ask them.

No, the FP and background check are two different things and both are processed within a few days. Unless of course the computer returns a result that requires further checks.

Hi Vinipux,
Please take into account what Barbara said and make sure abt.FP codes on your first and 2nd letter are different in order to procede with the 2nd letter.
Hey,what is your online status now?any change....local office letter indicates that your file might very well be at local office and interview date might be forthcoming.

It sounds as if the notices come from different offices.
If the second letter comes from your local office then do it again. The other thing is that often enough FP don't give clear results, so they need to be taken again. It may be your case.
Given what you've said, if I were you I would just do what they ask.

If letter reads FP needs to be done for I-485 then it must be FP code 3.Some folks had run into this situation when they had to take FP again as they were not that good enough....You know sometime the individual FP's of the fingers doesnot match with the FP's of the same hand when taken togather i.e.all 4 fingers at the same time.
HOw was your FP's experience?was that smooth or they had to take your FP's again n again...
You can also call FBI and find out abt.your FP's check is clear or not.This will also make you clear if they never got your FP's or they send it back for a retake etc.

Online message change/800 automated
Hi all DV 2006 Winners,
When a case transfer from NBC(MSC)to local office, does the online or 800 automated message normally change?
Eventhough knowing that they dont keep up with this in particular with DV cases....any thoughts would be great.
Thank you all.

Hi Jugnu,
No, the 1-800 message changes only when some significant progress has been made on your case. Generally speaking, like they say on their recording, what you get on the phone is the same as what you get online.
Your local office will be able to tell you about the location of your file.

As long as Lockbox office mail room staff put a stamp of December 1st or later you will be fine.
Plz call and ask your civil surgeon abt the timeframe,assuming if you upto the mark for vaccination then it should be day or so...in our case it took two business days.
