You can email KCC and request they email back a copy of your payment receipt. They may or may not respond accordingly.

Again, I cannot predict if you will be able to finish the process before the end of the FY year or not.

There's really nothing you can do to move the case forward if the delay is background check related. USCIS is aware of the time crunch associated with DV based AOS applications, and they often try to expedite and resolve (on their own) cases stuck on AP as the FY end approaches.

1- if u sent a cashiers check from your bank you can ask your bank for the copy of the cashed payment , if you did a money order from usps you can go there and ask them for it. ((((the copy of the cashed payment should be cashed and stamped from the back))))
2- i didn’t provide my receipt bc the kcc they took a long time to send my receipt (about two months)
 
Today my family ( my spouse and two kids) and I had interview and now status for all of us changed to New Card Is Being Produced. I would like to say billions thanks to mom who helped me a lot throughout this process. I know this process was more complicated and hard to proceed without getting support and advise from mom. Here is my time line from Los Angeles:
May 31th : AOS packages were delivered
July 11th :Fingerprints were taken
July 15th : IL were received
July 25th: Interview were taken
July 25th: status online changed to 'New card is being produced'

I wish every one have this status as soon as possible.
Mom thanks again for your kind support. This world needs more people like you: kind, supportive and thoughtful

It usually takes up to 4-5 weeks. in my case it took more than 2 months and they did not cash my money orders, then mom advised me to send another set of money order regarding the mistake which I had in writing in the memo part of my first money orders. I did so and then email KCC many times to receive my receipt. I refunded my first set of money orders

Oh wow! This is great - I can finally rest from you :D:D:D - Congratulations :)

p.s. remember to keep updating the Timeline spreadsheet.
 
Hello guys, I received my NOA 20 days ago. But, I haven't got my Biometric Schedule notice. My lockbox is Elgin, FO is Atlanta and there is none cases from Atlanta. From last timelines, Biometric Schedule is received within 10 days. Should I wait patiently or start a congressional inquiry too? PS: I am too nervous and added my case in the timeline.

You listed your NOA received date as 7/12 on the Timeline Spreadsheet, that does not add to 20 days ago by my calculation. Bio scheduling is based on how busy the applicable ASC is (you do not have your ASC listed). Nonetheless, I wouldn’t recommend “wasting” congressional inquiry to chase down the bio notice at this point - think of congressional inquiry as a single-use slingshot, a one time opportunity that may be required to be used later on. In the interim, you can try chatting Emma or calling the USCIS 1-800 number to find out if your bio appointment has been scheduled.

As I mentioned earlier, my ASC and FO is Atlanta. There is 0 case of Atlanta in 2023. There were cases of 2022 and they got bio letter after 10days

You mentioned earlier, your FO was Atlanta, not your ASC which also wasn’t previously listed on the Timeline Spreadsheet like I pointed out. Yes, I’m aware there’s no other case from your FO listed on the 2023 Timeline spreadsheet, I can see that. Anyway, my previous response still stands, but feel free to initiate a congressional inquiry for the bio if you like.

1-My lawyer
2- sorry mom what is SASE? But i dont know.

Another confirmation about your lawyer not being knowledgeable enough to handle a DV based AOS application. The receipt is supposed to come by posted mail and not email. In order to get back the payment receipt, you (or your lawyer) is supposed to have included a self-addressed stamped envelope (SASE) with the payment - that is what gets used for sending back the receipt. If your lawyer is saying the receipt comes by email, it means they did not include the SASE with the payment.

Not sure why you decided to use a lawyer for a process you could have handled yourself - all you needed to do was to have diligently studied the AOS Process Spreadsheet and followed the step by step guidance provided. You opted to pay someone to basically fill out and submit your forms on your behalf, while you are now running around trying to gather the needed information.
