DV 2021 AOS Only

Hi, How can I obtain an Employment Verification Letter? Do I need an employment verification letter for my current job only or past jobs also?
 
I am currently in the process of filling I-485 form. I have a couple of questions:
1. Can I write 'None' from 2a to 4c (Other names you have used since birth if applicable) part as I don't have any other name ? Or can I leave it blank?
2. What is the expiration date of authorized stay shown on form i-94 (23 b) ? I am in f1 and it doesn't show any date.
3. In 23c (staus on form i-94), I wasn't able to type F1 the only F is allowed. What can I write in that field ?
4. Do I need to fill part 2 (application type or filling category)?
5. I am currently single so can I leave with current marriage part blank or should I have to type None ?

I got confused on can I leave the form empty or should I have to type None or N/A ?

3- F is enough

Are you saying that USCIS automatically withdrew your spouse's OPT application after they received your DV AOS package?

2. Usually F visas are D/S (duration of stay)

1 and 5: Did you read the instructions for i485? “Answer all questions fully and accurately. If a question does not apply to you (for example, if you have never been married and the question asks, “Provide the name of your current spouse”), type or print “N/A,” unless otherwise directed. If your answer to a question which requires a numeric response is zero or none (for example, “How many children do you have” or “How many times have you departed the United States”), type or print “None,” unless otherwise directed.”
 
Do you mean she was going to graduate but now is taking courses to stay a student and got a new I-20 to stay on F1 status?

There is no known case where simultaneous OPT and i-485 AOS applications affect each other. But it's good that she maintained her F-1 status so that if i-485 does not get approved, she has a fall back status of F-1.

Would her later OPT application be affected by a previous immigration intent if i-485 does not get through? I don't know that. Maybe someone else can better comment on that.
 
What to write in Part 12?
Contact Information, Declaration, and Signature of the Person Preparing this Application, if other than the Applicant

As I am preparing myself the application, should I have to write N/A or write my name?

No my spouse did request withdrawal her application and we got verification letter through mail 6 days after our package arrived to USCIS, However the withdrawal request toke almost 36 days to get approved .
 
Hi guys. I contacted my attorney regarding the expedite request situation on Friday and I expect to hear back tomorrow. I will post an update here when that happens.

Also, on Friday, my status changed to "card was mailed" but it didn't have a tracking number. I think that happens the next business day usually, so I expect to have tracking number information tomorrow. I am also signed up for Informed Delivery from USPS.

Does anyone know where green cards are mailed from? As much as I know, they are not mailed from the field office.

I didn't include anything and here's why. My lawyer wrongly suggested that I didn't have to pay the fee, so he sent my package without the receipt. Later, I realized that this was a mistake, so I paid and I will bring the receipt with me to the interview. I think I was lucky and my package was not rejected.

Do you think it's better to include a note or not re not having received the receipt yet and intending on bringing to interview? Not sure if a note inclusion will send them a red flag message that I SHOULD HAVE, thereby bringing more attention to it and possible rejection.

I'm not sure to be honest. I think that's up to you.
