Hi Again,

I am relatively new this.I have been reading the "Travel.state.gov" for a week or two now, but some stuff don't quite add up, for example I've been checking the visa bulletin and a number as high as mine 4xxxx hasn't been current for the passed decade(by the way I am from Iran). Asia is always current between 8000 and 15000 from OCT to SEP, this does not make any sense or may be I am comprehending the data incorrectly. I am really confused. Questions time now ; )>>>>>>>, Can an applicant begin their "medical and police back ground check" process as soon as possible I mean if I do this in SEP 2011 will the results still be good say if my interview falls in AUG 2012.

Thank you so much guys
Sorry for throwing so many question your way at once.

Welcom Kate in this page you will find the answer for all of your questions
Regarding the CN you have to read the Visa Bulletin(VB) every month because every month the CN number will start go up and every VB will have data for the up coming two months for example if you look at(VB) for this month you will see data for SEP and OCT now the data for SEP its for DV lottery winners 2011 and the Viscal year for DV 2012 start OCT they start this year in asia with 8000 and next month you will see data for OCT & NOV in nov you will see the asia number wil move forward more than 8000 now this year the asia numbers is high like your number and mine so according to last year my prediction is your CN and mine may be will be due in AUG or SEP 2012

Now for filling the form can you tell me please who won you or your husband and if you are the winner do you have High School degree or higher than that??
if you are the winner in question for the (Name and address of petitioner) you have to write your name and your address, But do not worry any mistake in filling the form you will corrected in the day of the interview because remember you did not sign the form yet and they will ask you to sign it in the interview day.

Now for the medical and police usually it will be valid for one year and since your CN is high my advice you to wait untill May or Jun and then you can do it but when you see the Second letter(appointment Letter) they will ask you to do these things and usually the time between the letter and the appointment will be 4-6 weeks and i think its enough time to do the medical and police certificate

Thanks for the prompt response EYW979.

Regarding your question, yes I have a masters degree same as my husband and I am the principal applicant. Now, I don't know how the ENTRY forms look like because my husband did the registration online(But I did complete all the KCC forms personally). Is there a section in the ENTRY from that asks for spouse's occupation because if there is I think my husband did put down housewife, but I have worked before and I have the Proofs and every thing. All been said do you think this contradiction is going to cause any problems.

Regards

Sending the dvlottery payment and the full list of the required documents

Hello all,

This thread has been very helpful, but it's been a while since the last post was made. I have three questions that I would like to know the answer to;

I will need to send the AOS package soon (January). My first question is; do I send the $440 payment right now? Or do I need to do anything else before...

The second question is; When I got the documents by e-mail, it said that "I must submit the DV "Notification Letter" printed from the Entrant Status Check website to the USCIS office nearest your place of residence in order to apply for adjustment of status" - what does that mean? Do I need to do anything before I send the documents in January?

The third question is; where do I find the full list of documents that I need to send in January?

Thanks

Your Fellow Countryman,

Did you check your updated status online on

https://www.dvlottery.state.gov/ESC/

that should have the correct details. moreover this seems fake because its a long way to go for 37xxxx to be current.
