DV 2023 AOS (Adjustment of Status) Only

Hi,
l made the DV processing fee, but l made a mistake and forgot to write down my case number. l emailed kcc to rectify the issue and had not received the payment yet. l emailed again after 3 weeks to inquire about the receipt and payment and l received this response
"Thank you for your inquiry.

The adjustment of status fee to the Department of State has been paid or indications on your DS-260 show that you wanted to adjust your status in the US. The payment of the adjustment of status fee indicates to KCC that you are residing in the US and wish to process your case at the local USCIS office. As a result, KCC did not continue the processing your case.
"
lam confused now, who am l supposed to contact for my DV processing fee receipt? Thanks in advance!
1. Has the payment being processed/cashed?
2. Did you include a SASE with the payment?
 
Hi, in financial document , is there any limit to savings($) that I need to have when I include my bank statement? My husband is on L1 and can show salary slips etc but not sure how much we need to show the savings.

"A substantial amount". If your husband is able to present an employment letter with his income showing at above the Poverty Guideline Level, applicable to your household, you most likely will be fine even if you have no substantial amount in your bank account.
 
My bank (US bank)informed me that the money order was cashed but they did not have the date of when it was cashed
Knowing when the payment was cashed would have been useful. In the absence of that information, if it’s been up to about 6 weeks since you sent in the payment, you can email KCC and request they send you a copy of the payment receipt by email, explaining you forgot to include the SASE with your payment when it was mailed it.
 
hi Sm1smom , hi all

Quick question:

My L-1a visa is valid till the end of 2024.

I-797B notice of action is valid till the end of 2022 (the first three years), and my employer has filed for an extension for the next two years (premium processing) to USCIS.

We filed DS260 ( no 2NDNL at the moment ) – Does it affect one another?

Thank you

One shouldn't affect the other. L-1A allows for dual intent.
 
Hello dear host,
I have a question regarding my passport.

So basically, the passport that has my non immigration visa (which is the one I used to apply for the dv) expires in May 2023. However, I already have a new passport issued by my country that goes from March 2022 (I am surprise why it’s this early date) to March 2029 I guess.
So I was wondering, on the I-134 (Aff of Support form), on question #8 of part 2: “Passport Number of the beneficiary's most recently issued passport”. From this question, I will have to write the passport number of my new issued passport even if the one with my visa hasn’t expired, is that right?

I was also wondering, do you think USCIS is going to make the fact that I have a new passport while the other one haven’t expired yet and the starting date of the new one is March 2022 a problem ??

Not sure why you’re still claiming to be surprised as to the early date of the new passport considering it was previously addressed as shown below back in May when you asked a similar question or made a similar comment:
You obviously applied to renew/for a new passport early, which became valid based on when it was issued. Surely, you weren’t expecting them to issue a new passport in 2022 and post date the validity date from May 2023 which is when the old one is set to expire.

Anyway, you will use the passport you last entered the US with in completing Form I-485. Since you already have a new passport, you take that new one to your interview when you get to that stage.

Anyway to your “new questions”:
1. Yes.
2. I can’t think of a reason as to why they would.

1. DS260 submission confirmation is not the 2NL.
2. You’re allowed to split the payment into two money orders.
3. The Advance Notification section of the VB shows October current CN. Only one person has November listed on the Timeline Spreadsheet and I’m believing they’re probably guessing they will become current in November based on where the October CN cutoff is, it doesn’t mean they’ve already filed for AOS.

Could not find the name for which I should get the DV money order of 330 USD made is it :
U.S. Department of State Diversity Visa Program

Or U.S. Department of homeland security

Could not find the specific name to write in the Pay To field ...

The former. You're paying U.S. Department of State for running the DV Program.
