yes, the appt was scheduled at that date. your noa for bio shd be arriving very soon. i don't know how fast they'll be moving the appts for bio but i hope they will schedule you faster than the 3 weeks they gave me since the end of the fiscal year is approaching. i did my bio at the pomona asc.

Ok, I will sent only DSP 122 + Barcode. My wife and me are here and we will choose AOS. Thanks for your advice and I will follow your forum and wish you the sucess towards your GC.

Yes, both i and my husband are in US. If both of you are in US and doing AOS, DSP-122+ barcode would be sufficient. As you said DSP-122 is filled by the primary applicant. Some applicants have sent DS-230 as well. Both the ways no harm. Anyway we sent only DSP-122+barcode. If you are doing AOS while other family members do CP, then you will also have to send the DS-230.

Also I had 2 more questions, One was on payments you did to the State dept- DV, did you write both names under one check, or different checks but under one principal. The second question was during AOS do you also file 2 different 1-485 for adjustment of status or.

good to hear that Norkira. hopw u had a nice vacation. we are waiting on our turn to get green so that we can enjoy the status.

Wow, it took me couple of hours to catch up with all the newly filled pages.

First of all, congrats to new one for the welcome letter. For me, that was it...I was happier than getting the actual card.

I've been away for the holiday, decided to give my new green card a try and went over to Canada, and boy, I could not believe how easy it was to pass the border back and forth. I do feel now like I'm FINALLY being treated like an American I hope you all get to experience this real soon.

Best wished to everyone of you.

worry, just be prepared.

Does anyone have experience or know somebody who did his AOS interview at the Houston, TX field office ?

Hi skul,

DSP-122 + bar code page would be enough. Of course you should
pay the AOS fee. As far as I could remember the fees went up recently.

Would you add your signature and location so that we know where you are at in the process?

If you have a wife already in US, and you are a principal 2011 DV winner are you also required to fill DSP 122 + DS 230 (for principal and spouse ) or just DSP 122 + bar code. I read somewhere and with my understanding -the DS 230 is for winners who are expecting to do CP or they are outside the United States and will do their DV process outside US. Following the instructions under dvselectee it does not say anything about DV winners with their spouse/wife who are already in US and were married before playing lottery to fill the DS 230, it ends with principal applicant filling and sending DSP 122 + bar code to Kentucky. Ok Chooti, I see you send only DSP 122 and later paid $750, is this because your spouse is in US or?

Chance of ASIA being current

Hi Guys,

Tomorrow is big day for us. My heart is thumping hard and worried about uncertainty. We were missed out by only few hundreds for August. Just wanted to throw in question about Asia being current or even moving few hundred this fiscal year??

We just received an email from KCC today confirming that our request for changing from AOS to CP is in their file. Thanks to Capeolive, i2009,NuvF, Nokira,Chooti, Sumeet and everyone.

Please pray for us.

Hi skul,

You should make separate payments and file a separate I-485 for each applicant.
Also take the new fees into consideration.

Hi maila,

They may or may not post it tomorrow. At my times I have seen it posted
between 5 -18 of the month. Usually it is around 10th of the month though.

Nobody can know it for sure but it should at least move even if
it doesn't become current. You have my best wishes for your processes.

If you want to check past visa bulletins and do some guessing you can do that...

Thank you Capeolive. We really need wishes. Just curious to know whether KCC sends in our documents to US embassy after the number becomes current or they wait even after the number becomes current !!

Hello maila,

It's hard to tell what the next Visa Bulletin will look like but I am pretty sure that your number will be current and that your files will arrive to the Consulate on time. I hope that we get the Visa Bulletin for August soon and that it brings good news to all.

Best of luck to you, everything will be alright!

Hi maila,

KCC will send your case file to the US embassy in advance.
In my friend's case it was around 45 days. First you should
get a package in mail on how to proceed. You should also
see the interview schedule in the embassy's website...

Thank you Capeolive. We really need wishes. Just curious to know whether KCC sends in our documents to US embassy after the number becomes current or they wait even after the number becomes current !!

Hey guys, what documents do I need to send to provide as an evidence for high school education? I have M.S. degree already.

 

[capeolive]

Hi sagarghimire,

High school diploma. Sometimes they can be very insistent on it.
It is better to send it if possible. If not you can try to convince them.

Please add your signature, so that we know where you are at in the process...

Hello, I want to go for AOS so at what point are you saying that I need to convince them. I am just worried if my AOS package would get rejected due to missing certificate or so.
You mean I can convince them during Interview? Please let me know.
