DV-2012 Possible to AOS before end of Sept 2012?

My spouse finally got her letter back from USCIS with instructions to make payment and file I-485... The letter is postmarked late July and they screwed up our address, so it has been delayed! Now there's only 1 month from now until end of fiscal year from DV-2012... Is it even possible to complete AOS in time for DV2012? She is already in the US...

Not really. USCIS are very slow. Try contacting KCC and see if she can do CP instead. It will cost more money but she will get a green card.

So I just called USCIS and they said that the AOS just needs to be submitted before the end of Sept and that it doesn't have to be approved before then. I was also told that the fee is $1070 which kind of conflicts with what I've seen posted online (People paying a $440 fee)?... Are there 2 fees?
