Please help me decide between AOS and CP

Firstly, Thanks you all for such valuable information! :)
I am a DV lottery winner for the year 2011. I got my first letter on May 04, 2010, case number AS00037xxx.
I’m already here in USA on H-1B visa, and I realize I can do either AOS from here, or regular Consular Processing from my home country – Israel.
Looking at the bulletins for DV2010 and DV2009, it looks like I have a fairly high number. For DV2009 a similar number in ASIA was current in July, while for DV2010 it still isn’t current even for July, so best case scenario would be current in Aug. so assuming for DV2011 will also be current in Aug that would leave only 2 months for processing until program ends.
I need to send in my papers to KCC after deciding between AOS in US vs. CP in Israel. PLEASE help me decide the route with higher chances (I don’t mind traveling to my home country if better option). Since I have a fairly high number, and VISAs eventually can run out, it’s a matter of which route can be faster:
1) DV AOS - Employment based AOS (I-485) can take months and I’m afraid 2 months may not be enough (if becomes current on Aug). Do you know if DV AOS cases get a special queue with rapid AOS processing? If not, seems like all cases that become current in the last 2 months or so, don’t stand a chance…
2) AOS – can I file a bit before current? Say June 15 bulletin shows Aug as current, can I file AOS in June 18?
3) With Consular processing: Who schedules the appt? KCC? And then they let you know?
4) When is it typically scheduled for? if June bulletin shows number becomes current on Aug – is the appointment typically scheduled FOR Aug? or only ON Aug they schedule something for say 5 weeks later? Bottom line: if number becomes current on month X – is the interview typically scheduled to take place on that month? I guess hearing from folks past experience could answer this one…
5) Again based on past experience from folks on the site - how long after embassy interview for Consular Processing do you typically get your passport with the immigrant VISA? So I could return to the US…
6) I received this first letter over a month ago, and need to figure out the desired route before replying. Am I waiting too long? (They didn’t set a deadline…)

MANY Thanks in advance to anyone that can help!

Hello greuveny,

Congratulations on winning the DV. Don't rush to send the forms back to KCC, you still have time so take your time to decide. The diversity visa AOS is supposed to be expedited, it should not follow the normal processing of the Employment-Based or Family-Based AOS. Also, the USCIS seems to speed up the processes by the end of the Fiscal Year, there have been cases that were approved in only one month!

I don't think that the DOS will run out of visas because they have never gotten to use all the 50K visas available in a fiscal year.

Both, CP and AOS have pros and cons. CP usually is faster but you need to travel and you don't know how many days you will need to stay out of the country; also, you need to travel at least one week early to do the medicals, police clearance, etc. If your case is denied it is almost impossible to appeal on a CP processing.

In the other hand, AOS takes longer, you can appeal if the case is denied and you don't need to take so many days off work.

One way or another, the big risk is that if something goes wrong, and your visa is not granted within the fiscal year, then you won't get the Green Card.

For CP the DOS will schedule your interview and you will receive a notification letter with instructions and the appointment for your CP interview. They usually schedule the appointment for the month when your case number becomes current and they send you the notification letter about 30 days before the appointment date.

You should be able to file your AOS petition early (http://www.murthy.com/arc_news/a_lwadj.html) but the general consensus is that you can file your petition only after you see your case number becoming current under the advance visa notification in the Visa Bulletin.

I hope that this would help you decide.

Best of luck!

SUCCESSFUL INTERVIEW
I m just home from the interview. Guys, i cant believe it was so easy. i got approved in less than 5 mins. I was the only one who had the appointment at that time. The IO called my name and guide me to her office. She asked me to raise the right hand and take oath and asked me to take a sit.
She asked me if i hired any lawyer for the process, i said no. She told me the file i send was excellent, and she was happy to know that i did it with the help of the online forum. In the whole interview she praised about my file at least 4 or 5 times. She asked me about my school, my home address, ssn etc...
Then she asked me some questions from page number 3 of the i485. She than told me since the visa is available she is going to approve my case. When she told me from today's date u became the permanent resident of US , i was so happy. She asked me to keep patience for the card, as it may take 1 or 2 months to get it in the mail. She congratulated me again and guide me through the exit. I wished her for the great day and left.
Thank all of u guys. Your help was really appreciable without which i would have lost somewhere. Thanks capeolive for that front letter you provided. I arranged the file according to that, which came out to be excellent even for the IO. All you guys waiting for ur case to move ahead believe me its gonna be really easy. I will pray for yall.

Hi greuveny,

In general CP is a better option for applicants with higher numbers.
You are scheduled by KCC in advance 1-1.5 months. The month your
number becomes current you go to interview. In most cases the decision is
made on the spot and you get your visa within a day or two in many countries.
Either route (AOS or CP) does not guarantee green card but in your case CP
looks like a safer option...
