DV 2021 AOS Only

Hey mom! Today I contacted a uscis representative through Emma to ask if my case was sent to FO, and this is what she told me.

What should I do in this situation?
I can't see what the rep told you which you referenced in your post.
 
GC holders are permanent residents not aliens
You count as an alien, even as a legal permanent resident, until you are a citizen. You are a “resident alien” if you have a green card. You are required to fill in form AR11 when you move until you become a citizen.

PS if you ever entered the US on a green card before they stopped routinely stamping passports you’d know the written notation on the stamp was ARC - standing for alien resident card, another name for green card.
 
Congrats, seem your application prepared very well. Just wait for your card. I got my interview same day call.
Thanks! I appreciate all the help I have got from this forum and the moderators of the forum. I have followed all the steps from the excel files and read them 1000 times before I send my package. It has saved me a good amount of lawyer cost. Thank you very much again to Mom and all other experienced users that answered my questions.
 
Hi Sara from the spreadsheet. I didn’t find you by that name. Looks like our field office is same- Atlanta. From the spreadsheet, I noticed you don’t have any update on your case since 6/14/21. I was just wondering if you have any progress on your case. Could you please comment here?
Hi there, sorry for the late update,
I have received the bio letter on July 23th, scheduled for August 12. Although I did my bio today through a walk-in.
will update the spreadsheet
 
oh i'm sorry mom. This is what she told me
The timing is a standard response, which is not applicable to DV based AOS applications. Nothing to worry about, you just need to be patient considering your case was only accepted less than 2 weeks ago.
 
She doesn’t understand about DV
Hi
I got almost same response, however I did mention that it's case sensitive as for diversity visa and we get closer to FY .he requested expedition request and told me to wait 5 days to hear back from my office .
P.S it has been 32 days since I've got my NOA.

thankyou so much mom. I appreciate it. I'll try to be patient now. I'm sorry for getting you worked up :)
 
The package has definitely been rejected because of the overpayment in that case, it will be sent back.
1. If your plan is to send in a new package (without waiting for the rejected one to first arrive and simply send it back with correct payment), yes consider getting your CS to sign and issue you with a new medical report.
2. There’s nothing to update if everything else on the form is correct.
Hello, thanks for all the help!

Yesterday I got two mails from USCIS:
- my wife’s NOA;
- my child’s rejected package;

The form I-797C with attached check to it is on top of the rejected package then there is a rejection notice on a bright green paper and the whole child’s package under it.

So my new question is:
If all the docs I sent (including I-693) have got this printed number on the bottom of each page, does it indicates that all forms/docs have been scanned/reviewed and if there were any other issue they would be listed them on the I-797C form along with “incorrect payment amount” reason?
 
My package was delivered on June 2 and I received my NOA on June 28. No news after that.
Can you help me understand when is the best time to take additional actions (congressional inquiry, tier 2...)?

Similar to me. Delivered on June 4th, NOA - June 30th. Also considering any options that can help to expedite the case

Yes. That is correct.

You can start following up with EMMA/Tier 2 agents now.
