DV 2021 AOS Only

It won't make any difference. In the US a lot of people refer to street names without the word "street". It's best to go with whatever the courier's website corrects it to. When I sent mine, they even changed the last 4 digits of the zip code and it didn't matter.

Ok great thanks! :)
 
Hello

I have paid $330 last month and it was cashed at the same time. But, I have not got the receipt from DOS yet. Contacted KCC, they said that I need to contact USCIS. Contacted USCIS they do not have my case as I have not applied for I-485. Well, I cannot apply without having the receipt from DOS.

Where do I contact now? Are you folks going through like mine issue?

Thanks

I believe KCC should be able to send you a receipt, I'm not sure why they referred you to USCIS. What did you tell them?

As far as sending the application w/o the receipt, there are enough information in the spreadsheet for you to make your mind. Go through AOS spreadsheet and the FAQ tab and see if you would like to still wait for the receipt.

Hey guys, when trying to organize my courier to send my AOS package to Chicago Lockbox, the address has STREET in it on the auto lookup address tab. It automatically comes up with Dearborn STREET, not just Dearborn. But the address is FBAS 131 South Dearborn - 3rd Floor Chicago, IL 60603-5517
So should I just put street after Dearborn?? or would that go to the wrong place?

So this is typical " i dont care" reply KCC sends you when they just want to reply with something..i think they are overwhelmed with emails and simply send a template. The moment they see adjustment of status , they will not read your email but simply reply you with - Please contact USCIS at the 1800.........
Unfortunately theres no other option but to email them clearly and precisely to get a proper reply .. this happened to me several times.
 
hello everyone,

on the AOS spreadsheet, there's a portion that talks about the form DS-5540 for the public charge rule. On the form, it says that DV applicants have to submit it which I did it, nor is it included in the spreadsheet section of "AOS Package". Can someone explain to me, bc im a bt confused. thanks

Form DS5540 was required to be submitted by certain applicants processing CP, the form is no longer. It has never been used by AOSers, it has never been listed as a required form on the AOS spreadsheet. When did you submit your AOS package? Where you previously going planning on going through CP and later on changed to AOS?

Which is your ASC and FO? You still didn’t add your info to the timeline spreadsheet by the way.

I don't know if there are people waiting for biometrics in Boston, but a friend of mine with a pending marriage-based AOS attempted a walk-in last week with her appointment letter and they did not let her in. This is the Revere, MA ASC. Her appointment is on 7/9.

A walk-in attempt is never guaranteed, nonetheless it is worth giving it a shot. It isn’t unusual for a particular ASC to deny a walk-in attempt to one person one day and allow it to someone else another day. It all depends on a number of factors such as how busy the ASC is at the time of the attempted walk, a grumpy security guard (or a nice one) at the entrance, grumpy/nice technician or supervisor, the time of the day, etc. It’s really a matter of luck.

I was reading someone tried to do it and was denied at first, but the security person tells what time to come back so ASC is less busy.

Takes more than 2 weeks for them to respond. No phone is answered.

It's been more than 3 weeks and still no response to my emails. Is there any other way to contact them? It's been 35 days since they cashed my DV fee but I have still not received any receipt yet. And that's the only thing I am waiting for right now, before submitting my AOS package.
