Hi all,

I am a lucky winner in the DV-2013 lottery. I did returned the DSP-122 and DS-230 I & II to the KCC.

I did check the box for "Consular processing" but I have changed my mind: as I am currently in the USA (legally on a H1B) I like to simply stay here and apply for an Adjustment of Status (AOS).

Can this be done? If so, how? Should I sent KCC a letter informing that I like to go for an AOS as it saves me a trip abroad?

Thanks

Congrat for being a DVL winner,

You are in USA as non immigrant on H1B visa.DVL is an immigrant status that gives you much more advantage than the H1B.You could lose your H1B status if you are fired or laid off.

Since you have been leaving in the USA for awhile you should contact the US consulate in your home country for advice. Your application will be sent to them and they would conduct your interview and issue the visa.

Write or call them...

Good Luck

NB:I am not an Immigration Attorney, All i say here is based on my personal experiences through K-1 visa process and CR1/IR1 visa process.
