DV 2010 AOS Only

Hi mechta,

We can only worry so much, including for ourselves.
We have to do what we can, pray and leave the rest
to God. We have so much to be thankful for. Winning
the DV Lotto is just another one. What are the odds
of winning the Lotto? Very little.

The One who brought us so far can take us further.
Keep up the faith!
Thank God!!!!!
I always believe and pray and I always will!!!
 
Hi suu5,

Welcome to the forum.

Practically you could have applied around June 10.

Anyways, I have some questions:

1. Have you filed Form DSP-122
2. Send pictures?
3. Paid DOS fee?
4. Did physical exam (I-693)?
5. What is your current status?
6. Where do you live?

After we get the answers, we probably will be able to help you better!

Dear Capeolive! This question is still without answer :
I-485. Part 1. If my current status is F-1, what should I write down in a blank “Expires on” Duration of status or the expiration date of my last I-20?
 
Hi mechta,

I answered it, you should write n/a

It jut does not apply to you, once you enter US with a student visa
you can stay here as long as you maintain your status. So, it should be n/a

Hi mechta,

May be you should double check it, just in case.
I have been out of F1 business long time ago.
Since you still got time, just ask how the current
students have done it...

Hi capeolive,

Thx for quick reply.

I sent DS-122 form to Kentucky.
I sent DOS fee $375 to State Department and received PAID stamp.
I did physical exam I-693.

I'm currently F-1 in CA

I still got 2 copy of passport picture 2X2. I think I need to send those with all my documentation to Chicago Lockbox right?

How about Police Reference. i need to get that too?

Thank you!!!!And while you are still here one more question please: Should I write down in the all blanks which doesn’t apply to me N/A or I can leave them empty? For instance, I-485. Last part: Interpreter’s Statement and Signature: N/A or empty?
 
Hi suu5,

Q1. When you filed DSP-122 did you opted for BCIS on page 1 of 4. You have a copy of the form? (I take it you sent the form last summer, not recently)

Q2. Have you filed Form DS-230 (pictures are sent with this form)

HI capeolive

Q1. I did
q2. For aos, applicant doesn't ouneed to send ds-230 that what i've been told by kentucky attendant. After i sent dsp-122, i checked up my process to kentucky. They said they transferred my process to uscis.

But i still didn't received nl2. Now i'm wondering if i can send my file without nl2?

Hi suu5,

You should have received 2NL in about two weeks after sending DSP-122.
Let's not worry about the other form.

What you should do is call KCC tomorrow morning 8:00AM eastern time.
Ask them about 2NL and if they can send you a copy of it. You can also
ask them if you can send AOS package to Chicago without 2NL.

But I believe that you don't have to have 2NL with the AOS Package.
It won't have to get a copy of it from KCC for the future, they have it.

I will come to your original questions soon.

As I said you could have applied around a month ago but we cannot do
anything about it now. You can make everything ready and send your
application this weekend. Stay tuned.

At this point in FY you should not be filing:
I-134
I-765

I-864 is not relevant you should file, or get somebody to file an I-134 instead.

Hi suu5,

You will have to prepare a "cover letter" I will post a sample for you.
It is just a "sample" showing how "I" did it. Read the instructions for yourself
do NOT make a mistake. Do NOT copy the things I post without making sure
they are correct first...
 
The following cover letter is only a sample.
Make your own research. Take out the things
that are not relevant to you, add the things
that are relevant. Always read the instructions.

You might also have to pay the difference of
AOS fee since they recently raised the fees...
