DV 2013 AOS Only

Hello all,
Just got my biometrics letter. I had a couple of questions:

1. The SSN box is empty? I do have an SSN # which I did fill in the documents.

2. What is a TCR because that box is blank for me...

Thanks!

Hello Darkelf,

I also have SSN but it was not stated in my acceptance and biometrics notifications. TCR in biometrics letter is also empty... Probably this does not matter since they already assigned an Alien Number to us. It would be interesting to know about other cases.

Help plz!!! AOS questions

Hi all,

I got DV2013, and I'm doing OPT in the US now.
My attorney suggested me not to do AOS, he said AOS always need to wait maybe over a year.
But this year, Asia cut off number is running super slow....my case is AS72**....
I'm wondering if i can do AOS now? is it too late to apply AOS???
Please help me and give me some suggestions!!! Thank you so much!

Thanks Pryanik. Let us see what other people say. I thought the way it worked was that you kept the same SSN even after the process completes successfully. If that was the case, why wouldn't they put the number in there..?

It should get here in a week or two. I don't think the application getting there earlier is any more an issue considering that you already got a Notice saying it was Accepted.

HI Darkelf!

Something I am 100% sure is that we keep our SSN, this number will be associated with us forever even if we go to live somewhere else and if we come back to the US we have to use it again. However, it is surprising that they haven't put it in our notifications being this number related to our legal status in the USA.

For those who are still waiting for the interview letters, try to check your I-485 case status. I just did it and my status changed directly to testing and interview tab. The status message shows the date the appointment notice being mailed as well as the appointment date. Good luck :)

What I have seen is that my I-131 and I-765 (filed concurrently with I-485) have been approved and mailed. There is still no information available for I-485.

Hey folks. I am trying to fill the forms but I am stucked with couple of parts.
i-485:
1.in Part 1: under the address parts there is a section " C/O (in care of)". What is this? What should I write?
2. in Part 2, application type? which one apply to an f-1 holder who is doing AOS?
g-325:
1."this form is submitted in connection with an application for?" section must be "status as permanent residence"?
 
Hi everyone,

My receipt number for I-485 is finally active. The tracking system shows the case in the "Acceptance" stage. I hope it is a good sign that the FO is finally doing something.

I-485
1. In the C/O box you can either leave it blank or put your first and last name again, I put my name
2. I selected "h" and added the note "Diversity Visa Lottery Winner. Copy of lottery letter attached."

G325
1. Correct! Status as permanent resident.

Vacation during I485 process

Short question - Can I go on vacation (Canada) during my I-485 is in progress?
I guess no -cause I sent a copy of my visa with my last Date of entry and this would be different then?
 
It is not advisable to travel out of the country once the I-485 has been submitted, unless you included the advance Parole form in your package and the form has been approved.

In fact, I believe that traveling out is indication that you have abandoned your Green Card application...
