DV 2025 AOS (Adjustment of Status) Process Only

Please excuse the question, I just want to make 100% sure:
Nothing besides the ASC bio notice and valid ID (DL/passport) must be brought to the appointment?
 
what do you mean no decision has been made? Are you in administrative processing? There is always a decision made, sometimes it takes a while

anyway yes if kcc has sent your file to a consulate and it’s being processed it can’t send it for aos as well
That is correct. Like the proverbial saying, you can't eat your cake and still have it intact.

I have a CP interview going to be scheduled in Montreal this January (probably sometime around Trump's inauguration lol - my CN is treading the current numbers). I am concerned about 221g/DS-5535 because it's Montreal. If that drags out and Trump shuts down the embassies, it's game over for me. Can I have another relief where I enter the US and do AOS? I understand the implications of immigrant intent.

In one of the FAQs on the AOS spreadsheet, it says I can ask the consulate to send my file the USCIS Field Office. Can I still do that with a pending 221g/DS-5535 post interview in MTL? Technically, it sounds like yes. I enter the US, I ask the MTL embassy to please send the file to the USCIS FO and carry over the jurisdiction?

If not, can I just ask KCC to do AOS instead of CP, skip the CP interview, and then do AOS months later when I'm ready to enter the US during the FY? I'm sorry but I'm in a huge pickle and need some advice. I am in borderline dangerous territory with this.

The possibility of switching from CP to AOS which you’re referencing is pre CP interview, that option is no longer available post interview. I mean ask yourself, why would an embassy that is working on determining your admissibility to the US be willing to transfer your case to back to the US for you to go complete the process inside the country?
