DV 2021 AOS Only

Noob question: in the timeline, how do I view the whole content of a cell? Some of them have a lot of text and I can't see it all.

When you click on a cell, the text also appears on the top, in front of the "name box" and the letters "fx". You can pull down the border line for that and make that box bigger and read the whole cell there comfortably.

Yes it can arrive without any change online..In fact It never changed in my case - all it said was Fingerprint fee received. It changed only after the interview when the case was approved and card was in production

You mean you got interview notices without the online status change “ interview was scheduled “

That's what I also want to do. I am waiting for the bio and interview. Although it's been only 15 days, I do not think I can wait for 3 months to follow up.

Waiting is killing me :)

It's frustrating I agree, but 15 days is nothing. If it were me, I would call USCIS after the first 4 weeks. You can ask to speak with a tier 2 agent and explain that your AOS is DV-based and that we are approaching the end of FY. If they don't help and more time passes, there are other steps you can take. But for now you should wait IMO.

Thanks Raphael.

Do you know how to reach tier2 when calling uscis? What are the number keys that will forward us to a human agent?

You have to speak with a tier 1 agent and request a phone call with a tier 2 agent, who will call you in 1-2 weeks. You can also use EMMA on USCIS website. When I did it, I just typed "live agent" and it connected me to a tier 1 agent who requested the phone call for me.
 
@Sm1smom @SusieQQQ i thought ill just ask this here - so my name is way too long..in my green card the name is cut short , im guessing they cant type more characters ...will this be a major issue? . I had all the characters in my i485 though.

Which one got truncated? First name? Middle name? Or Last name?
How does the name appear in front of the GC compared to the back?

Apparently GC has an 18 character limit per name. Does this sound consistent with what you have on your card?

USCIS has your full name in their system, you should be fine on that end. But when it comes to the DMV or SSN Administrative office, prepared for some potential long delay and to be given the run-around when trying to update those documents based on your GC. Their verification process when there’s a slight discrepancy or variation on the official documents you’re presenting and your listed name on their application form sucks and can be quite frustrating, but gets resolved eventually.
 
Hi Mom, I sent my AOS package May 18 and hasn`t received anything yet (no message/email). When I should start worrying if nothing received?

Have you checked with your bank (in case you used a personal/cashier’s check) in order to see if there has been any activity for cashing your payment?
(if you’ve used a credit card, was there any attempt on your card?)
 
Hi,
Previously when I was planning to do cp I have my family friend to help with affidavit of support and I mentioned his name in ds260. Now that I changed from cp to aos I still planned on submitting I-134. I found out that he had taken unemployment benefit for certain time back in 2020. My question is
1. Does that affect on my application?
2. what if i want to put some other person other than him for i-134. Do I need to update it on my ds260?
Thank you
