I emailed them back and got a generic reply from KCC DV with info about the AOS process.
Oh no, I'm not proposing to get rid of the disclaimer. My point is that we might want to separate ground rules from an invitation to contribute. I think the latter is more important yet it's being lost/overlooked inside that long disclaimer. Just an idea from a guy who does conversion optimization for a living
I think the problem/point is that those who just read “how to contribute” without reading the disclaimer first are those who end up messing up the spreadsheet for everyone else. Optimization doesn’t always mean the shortest route to something.Oh no, I'm not proposing to get rid of the disclaimer.

I hope so! I submitted/ received all my documents before yours except for you doing biometrics 3 days before me… my status changed to interview scheduled yesterday and asked EMMA today when my interview was but they said they can’t see a date, just that one has been scheduled.
, guess a few days earlier doing your biometrics does make a difference?
(My last bit here) I see it as the main goal is to make people share their info to benefit the community. On the other hand, you can't screw google sheet up irreparably.
Exactly, screwing the spreadsheet up undermines the sharing of info. Past experience counts here.
You don’t need to do anything to actually get them to read the email and respond accordingly. They do read the email. You’re not the first FTJ case to get such an email request for explanation. Sending back the email as recommended has always addressed the issue in the past.
Hi, just an update on my case regarding the last letter of my first name missing on the GC.
In general, we’ve had cases of selectees who filed for AOS as late as July or August who managed to successfully complete the AOS process in the past. It was a nail bitter period for them, but they managed to pull it off. And we’ve also had a few cases of those in similar situations who unfortunately did not make it as their cases got stuck pending background check clearance.
You might as well attend it.
Do I need to pass background check if my DS-260 has been already processed? My current status is F1 visa status. If I fail to adjust my status from F1 visa to permanent residency, will my status remain F1?
1. Every applicant is required to successfully complete and pass the background check regardless of if they’re processing AOS or CP. Your DS260 form being processed does not mean you’ve already passed the background check even if you were to go through CP.
Is it necessary to be in US at least 3 months to do AOS?
It is necessary to show that you have not entered US on a non-immigrant visa with the sole intent of applying for permanent residency.
That is an interesting question. So how can you be on OPT if you’re not currently in the US? The above question and a previous statement about being able to re-enter the US whenever you wish gives me the impression you’re not currently based in the US, which makes you ineligible to process AOS.
Yes, I am not in US right now. I have an agreement with my employer to work temporarily remotely while waiting my 2NL. I am going to wait my 2nl within 2 weeks. If I will not get 2nl within that period of time, I would like to return back to US and do AOS. Is that possible?
1. Like I previously responded, G-325 is used for DACA application (hence it’s availability on USCIS’s website). You can goggle form G-325 use. You can also read this NOLO article:

Working remotely outside the US on OPT is a grey area, I don’t know if USCIS considers that a status violation or not to even start with. So I don’t know if you’re still considered eligible to process AOS in this case. I mean how long have you been working remotely outside the US while waiting for your 2NL?
