DV 2020 AOS Only

First Part:
In the new required form I-944 of Self Sufficiency the part about health insurance asks for:

"1.For each policy, a copy of each policy page showing the terms and type of coverage and individuals covered; or
2.Letter on the company letter head or other evidence from your health insurance company stating you are currently enrolled in health insurance and providing the terms and type of coverage; or"
So after talking to my insurance provider for #2 requirement they sent me a Letter of Creditable Coverage in their letter head. As all the options are "or" so that should suffice. My question:

1Q: if I submit #1 the health insurance policy page then what part of the policy coverage contract I should submit? The actual policy coverage file is almost 80 pages long!
2Q: Should I submit the only schedule of benefits section (6 pages long within the contract)?


Second Part:

The I-944 also asks for Credit Report and Score. I have submitted a request through annualcreditreport.com. and it takes more than 2 weeks and given the current situation might take longer. However, I have a paid experian account and I have downloaded all three agencies (experian, equifax, transunion) reports through experian website.

3Q: The experian website provided credit report with credit score, will that suffice as a credit report? Or does it have to be through the annualcreditreport.com website?

thanks in advance. I might have more questions as I am compiling my AOS packet this week.

Stay safe everyone

1. I think you are overthinking about this. Usually, in first couple of pages of your health insurance policy, there's a summar of benefits (it doesn't included every single detail but enough information to compare the health insurance), As long as you have that page that's enough.
2. Usually annualcreditreport.com gives you the credit report instantly, so you can print it (but it doesn't include your credit score though). Anyway, it doesn't matter where you get the credit report, as long as you get the report from one of the main three credit bureaus it will be okay.
 
Am I too desperate but it looks to me it is for those who are looking to enter US. Those who are in US and plan to do AOS should be safe. Can yoou comment? I cannot add link, so I quote:

Sec. 2. Scope of Suspension and Limitation on Entry. (a) The suspension and limitation on entry pursuant to section 1 of this proclamation shall apply only to aliens who:

(i) are outside the United States on the effective date of this proclamation;

(ii) do not have an immigrant visa that is valid on the effective date of this proclamation; and

(iii) do not have an official travel document other than a visa (such as a transportation letter, an appropriate boarding foil, or an advance parole document) that is valid on the effective date of this proclamation or issued on any date thereafter that permits him or her to travel to the United States and seek entry or admission.

I believe you're right. This is also Washingtonpost interpretation:
"The order blocks the entry of several categories of immigrants for 60 days, but it will not apply to immigrants already living and working in the United States who are seeking to become green-card holders as legal permanent residents."

My health insurance does not show an end date, its an employer sponsored health insurance. Anyone dealt with this issue? I'm gonna ask my HR tomorrow
 
Good news to AOSers, the new EO suspending immigration to the US not applicable to the AOS process. The process will continue, assuming USCIS offices re-open to the public. And new VB gets released for those yet to become current.
That's great news for us. Is this official release from government?
 
You’ll be allowed to remain in the country even if your current status expires while your AOS petition is pending, you just wouldn’t be able to work without an approved EAD in that case.

If you wish to apply for an EAD at this point you’ll need to send in the I-765 form plus the NOA USCIS sent you for your I-485. No payment required because of the NOA.

Can I apply for I-765 with my passport that will be expired in two months?
Or should I renew my passport first? ( i dont know if i can renew during this time tho).
 
Greetings Mom!

I already legally reside in the US as a student and my DV lottery case number became current in March (for May). I have not yet applied for AOS provided the events, but will most likely apply early next week. Does Trump immigration order affect me?

I read the link and what got me worried was: section 2(ii):
I quote:
"The suspension and limitation on entry pursuant to section 1 of this proclamation shall apply only to aliens who: do not have an immigrant visa that is valid on the effective date of this proclamation."

Knowing that a student (F1 visa) is a non immigrant visa.

Thank you!

Hi Mom. I have submitted my i485, have the NOA, and 2 weeks later lost my job. My understanding is that AOS in the US is safe for now. *However* the executive order also says: those who "do not have an immigrant visa" and "do not have an official travel document other than a visa"
I'm still waiting on the advanced parole document, and don't have the visa, just have the AOS. Does Section 2a ii and iii affect the status of AOS still waiting for the DV and Advanced Parole? Thanks!
