DV 2016 AOS Only

Gordon Gunn said:
Hi, It looks like we're thinking of applying for the GC after all (Number OC8xx - in the 800's). When we entered the dv lottery draw we were living in the UK, and entered with a UK address, since entering last year we've moved to the USA on E2 visas and of course have a US address (and we've ended up loving it here and decided to pursue our DV win and stay). My question is, when we file the DS-260, will there be an option to select AOS, or is the online form locked to Consular as when we entered the DV we had an overseas address?

You will be able to process as AoS - the form will not be "locked" to the UK address.

The address used during the eDV registration is irrelevant. You'll have the opportunity to list your current address on the DS-260 form and to indicate whether you wish to process AOS or CP.

Just one more question - obviously now we've decided to stay we'd like to get the DS-260 in asap, but we're flat out busy for the next two weeks so we'll probably be submitting late September/early October. What's the timeline for the AoS DS-260 approval? Is submitting it this late going to delay anything? I've checked the bulletins and our number looks like it'll become current sometime around March-May or so.

DS-260 submission date has little to no impact on the AOS process.

Anyone can try their luck by applying for American Diversity visa program also known as Greencard or lottery.

It is free to apply but you need to have the right photo requirement and education requirement since they are very keen in the two mentioned.

Please have a close look at these photo requirements and samples.

What are your qualifications to come here and advertise your website?
The photo specs are clearly explained on the DoS site, I hope you haven't just copied and pasted their info on to your site...

Hi MOM,
I have served mandatory military service around 10 years ago for 20 month.
In form I-485 in Part 3-C, I should fill out the table which I don't have any problem with that. My firs question is: am I need to attach any additional explanation for (separate sheet) Part 3-C?
In Part 3.15.a Should I answer "Yes" to the question?

If "yes" what kind of explanation I should bring on a separate sheet?

Thanks,

You don't "argue with women?" In that case can you answer a simple question: are you a DV winner who has successfully emigrated to the U.S.?

You select 'Yes' and explain on a separate sheet of paper, what kind of military service it was, (e.g. Mandatory military service like you stated above), the duration, your duties, etc. You will also need to submit your military papers from your home country.

You simply fill out the table in 3-C as applicable to you, no additional/explanatory sheet required unless the table provided isn't enough to list out your membership organizations.
 
Hi, just looking over the package forms/spreadsheet - as we're on E2, I'm assuming we have to fill out the I-508 also, so do we just include this in the package we send along with the I-485 at filing/current time? It's not on the documents list to include if required in the package in the spreadsheet.

Yes, you fill out an I-508 and include it with your I-485 package.

No, it is not listed on the AOS spreadsheet because it isn't applicable to the vast majority of people using the spreadsheet. If we had gone ahead and listed it as "if applicable" there's a high possibility majority of the spreadsheet users could end up being confused by it and some may actually simply go ahead and still send it even when it's clearly not applicable to them, hence the none inclusion.
