We've been selected for DV-2017, in August we submitted all paperwork for AOS to USCIS, in October we did fingerprints, then for 3 months nothing was happening and on January 10 we receive notice that our case has been moved from Nebraska to NBC ( our FO is New York), my question is, is it standard procedure that they move case to NBC , should schedule INFOPASS, do you think it's unusual that we wait so long and other peoples average wait time from fingerprints to interview is 30-60 days.

The FY starts in October, so your CN was current in October, not September.
I do recollect from DV2016 that the NY NY FO was one of those that took their time in scheduling interviews. That notwithstanding though, I'm not sure what's going on with your timeline. DV cases typically move from the Chicago Lockbox to NBC to FO. I don't know why your petition went on to Nebraska Service Center from the Chicago Lockbox in place of the NBC. I suggest you make an INFOPASS visit to your FO.

92 days passed after biometric no interview letter...
Like Mom said, NY FO takes their time to send out interview letters. I had a similar situation last year. I was current in October with CN 2016EU2***. It took me 7 months to get the IL after I completed my biometrics. So you may potentially have a little more time ahead of you till you get the IL. It's a patience game but you'll get it eventually
good luck!Hello Mom,
I am DV selectee AF00037*** (F1 student visa, and DS 260 sent already). I read the AOS package you posted but I need some clarification on aspect. I have a sponsor (LPR) who is willing to file the I-134 on my behalf. However, the person's last year tax return does not meet the 125% FPL. But the person has a new job now with a better pay that exceeds the 125% FPL.
Can the person still sponsor me and add a letter from her new employer reflecting the new annual income on it?

During the infopass appointment, shall we get the chance to meet the same immigration officer who took our interview? If it happens so, does he accept any supporting documents that we did not submit before? Have scheduled an infopass appointment for the case waiting for two months after the interview to adjudicate.

Hi, please is it a requirement or a neccesity for F1 as primary applicant and F2 as derivative to submit financial support from a sponsor when submitting I 485 application?

There is an expectation that anyone applying for an immigrant will not become a public charge by apply for benefits they do not qualify for once they become a LPR. The only way I know of overcoming that is to submit financial support documents indicating one is either financially capable of providing for themselves on their own, or they have someone willing to support them should the need arise.

Hello. I was going over AOS package in the spreadsheet while preparing my package and I would like to ask you few questions. I came to US in 2006 as a J1 student, then in 2007 I changed it to B2 visa, then I changed it to F1.
a) When I include all my I20's and I94 do I need to include I-797(notice of action) for my B2 visa?
b) When including EAD cards (I have two of them for OPT), do I also need to include the corresponding I-797 (work auth approved status)?
c) According to the spreadsheet I'm including passport page with visa, but do I also need to include J1's certificate of eligibility?
Thank you in advance!
