DV 2022 AOS (Adjustment of Status) Only

Hello everyone,

I am sure this question has been answered before, however I could not find the post.
What are the steps to update my mailing address for whenever I receive any updates regarding my case?

Calling USCIS/Contact an online agent? (USCIS page)

Or

Filling an AR-11 form

Thank you!
You can change it via USCIS Online account if you already have one set up and/or by submitting Form AR-11
 
Hi
I mailed the adjustment of status fees,1650 for 5 people.
The package was delivered on 22nd February

One of the USPS money orders 1000usd has bee cashed on 28th February.
Another USPS money order, 650 dollars has not been cashed so far.
What should I do?

I did receive the return receipt on 28th Feb.
Be patient.
 
Hey y'all,

I messaged KCC following up on the process as I was going to send the $330 by mail. Does this follow up mean anything from them? or is it just a generated standard message?

Hello,

If I change my address during the process, what should I do? Is forwarding the address at USPS enough?

Thanks.
 
Hello @Sm1smom,

do you think it will help or speed up the receipt of the DV 330$ receipt, by using first class for both sending the check and for the self addressed envelope?
 
DV 2022 Winner here on F-1 Visa. So i completed my masters in 2019 and got my OPT approved but I never used it because i went back to school to do my PhD. Do i need to fill the A-Number on form I-485 since i never used the OPT Card that was issued me in 2019? Please help

It is basically a response to whatever inquiry you asked of them. Not sure if you've gone through the AOS process spreadsheet to enhance your understanding of the steps/process for DV based AOS applications. I strongly recommend you go over it if you're yet to do so.

It may speed up the delivery time. It however isn't likely to impact the processing time for the payment itself considering the receipt will not get sent back to you until after the payment has been processed.

It doesn't matter if you used the OPT card or not, you were issued with an A# which is attached to you. List it.

Thanks for the response. I've gone through the spreadsheet thoroughly, but I suppose my question is more-so, do you receive any correspondence from the DOS prior to sending them the DV payment? I received my 2NL back in September from KCC.

The steps involved are well highlighted on the AOS process spreadsheet IMO. DOS will not be sending out any correspondence prior to or reminding you to send in your DV payment. You make the determination on your own as to when you want to make the payment. KCC sends the 2NL following DS260 form submission (or DV payment when no DS260 has been submitted in some cases).
 
Hello Admins. I want to update the spreadsheet which I think will benefit everyone. I requested edit access from the time line spreadsheet with a message. I did not receive any reply or should I do it differently? Appreciate your help.

Access has now been granted.
 
Hey Sm1smom! Thanks for the post, it was really helpful. I'm currently in the US and was selected in the Diversity visa. I would like to file my I-485 as soon as possible but just paid my DOS fee. Do you think I can just include a copy of the money order in the I-485 filing as proof of payment or do you think I need to wait for the official receipt from the DOS before I file? Also is it possible to file and adjustment of status and through consular processing and go with the quickest option or do you not recommend that? Thanks again for your help!
