Hey guys,
My number will be current in April. I'm so happy.
Stressstudent, what kind of payment you made for the DV fee: casher's check, money order? and how you sent it (regular mail, overnight?).
I the AOS package have you included the paystubs or you took them only for the interview? For how many months?
Thank,
Leny
Hi Leny - congrats on your number coming up!!
First, I sent the DV fee via overnight UPS, that way I could track it and have a delivery confirmation, and I also noticed some people were taking up to 6 weeks to get the receipt back and I wanted to have it to submit with my application.
Second, for the AOS package I did not include the paystubs, I only took them to the interview. Here is a copy of the letter I sent listing all the documents I sent in (similar to previous ones posted) - oh, and it was formatted nicely, but posting it here made it ugly!:
