DV 2024 AOS (Adjustment of Status) Process Only

Sm1smom - Just for some more context. I've been on an E3 since early March and before that F1 OPT and as an E3D (have lived in US now for ~15 years). From what I'm reading in the AOS FAQs sheet, because I had already resided here in the US, its acceptable to form AOS, even if I'm on a NIV?

Apologies if I come across as rambling or not making sense - I'm just very stressed now that I've made a massive mistake.

Hey,

I know Sm1smom has answered your question about immigration intent.

We are also on E3's and going the AOS route, but our CN is current for June. If you do need to chat with an immigration lawyer, then let me know. We've used one previously who is Australian and based in NYC and has experience with E3's, DV lottery, etc. She's provided good advice and very receptive to answering questions via email after our consultation.

We are not using her for our green card as very $$ and the process is easy enough to follow. Send a DM if you need details to get peace of mind, but it's likely not anything you need to rush into until it's time to renew the E3's.
 
Hi mom,
I have a question about the I-485 form, what would be the best answer for the question Are you subject to the public charge ground of inadmissibility under INA section 212(a)(4)? for me (f1 student, principal aplicante,) and for my wife in asylum pending.?

Yes for both of you.

thanks mom, but if I say yes, I would be ineligible to make the AOS, is that correct?
and if my answer is yes so, I don't need the form I-134 declaration of financial support, for demonstrating that I'm unlike to become a public charge is that correct?

Everyone filing DV based AOS is subject to INA 212(a)(4) regardless of if an I-134 is required or not. Take a look at the AOS FAQ section of the AOS Process for more information on this.
 
I'm about to send my package away and have one final question.

1. For principal applicant, it says to include current I-94 and past I-94s but for spouse/children, the spreadsheet only has I-94. Should full travel history version of I-94 also be included for spouse/children?

Thank you.

Dear Mom,

My number became current for June. My application got delivered to Lockbox on 4/24. Waiting on NOA and sms/email. I am on F1 visa, I recently won H1B lottery. Should my company start filing for H1B? Is there any risk that if my company files for H1B, any my Green card gets approved, can it by accident be changed from Green Card to H1B - by confusion/mistake? does my question make sense ?

I am in the same situation (I will very much likely go current in July) and my company's lawyers are doing H-1B consular processing for me. You can indeed have multiple applications going on at the same time, but they told me that while a green card application is pending, I cannot make the automatic switch to another nonimmigrant status. So I will have to travel outside the country to activate my H-1B if my AOS is not successful.

Thanks again for your attention mom,
I'm going to make the money order for DS-260 may I pay $660 for both me and my wife, or should I pay separately?

No need for separate money orders when making the DV administrative fee payment, a single money order is fine in this case.

Hello. Received an update in the morning that a new card is being produced. Can't make any changes in the excel sheet.
So does it mean that interview is waived? Am I approved?

CPO means the interview has been waived, congratulations.

As for not being able to update the excel spreadsheet, you asked about this back in May, and you were provided with a response as to what you needed to do in order to update the spreadsheet. See the link to that post below:
 
Hello everyone,

I live in Texas and I am trying to file form I-485. I am having confusion as to where to send my documents. Can someone please provide me the right address to submit my application for adjustment of status?

Sizden sonra başvuran kişilerin sizden önce mülakata girmesi veya GC'sini alması olağandışı bir durum değildir. Bunun nedeni, her FO'nun süreci farklı şekilde ele almasıdır. Zaman çizelgenizi yalnızca sizinle aynı FO'dan olan birininkiyle karşılaştırabilirsiniz, diğer FO'larla karşılaştıramazsınız. Sizinle aynı Fairfax VA'dan 2023 Zaman Çizelgesi'nde listelenen bir vaka var. Bu vaka görüşme yapılmadan onaylanmış olsa da (ki bu harika, özellikle de FO'nuz bu yıl aynı şeyi yapmaya karar verirse), sizin yaşadığınız uzun süreli bekleyiş kesinlikle yaşanmadı. Dolayısıyla, geçmiş kontrol izniniz hala beklemede olabilir ve bu durumda FO'nuz, bu durum netleşene kadar davayı onaylamaya devam edemez.

Ne yazık ki her şeyin yolunda gittiğinden emin olmanın bir yolu yok. Gecikme geçmiş kontrolü izniyle ilgiliyse sabırlı olmanız gerekir. Çoğu zaman gecikmenin sebebinin ne olduğunu bilmek mümkün olmuyor. Ancak bu noktada kongre vaka araştırması başlatabilirsiniz. Gecikme FO'nuzun davanızı gözden kaçırmasından kaynaklanıyorsa, kongre soruşturması en azından konuyu FO'nuzun dikkatine sunacaktır.
