I didn't see any one that open a topic for Sept / Oct filers, so I went ahead to open one.

I sent mine package yesterday (9/14) and here is my list

- Form I-130

- $355

- Copy of Petitioner's Birth Certificate (Front & back)

- Copy of marriage certificate

- G-325A @ 2 (one from me, one from my husband)

- Passport photo @ 2 (one from me, one from my husband)

- Evidence

----> 4 months bank statements, total 8 statements from 2 joint accounts

----> Holiday saving account statement

----> 1 month water, power & light bills

----> dog ownership

----> auto insurance bills & cards

----> hotel reservation for a trip

----> 20 photos

- Form I-485

- $1010

- Copy of alien's birth certificate

- alien's passport photo @ 2

- Sealed I-693

- Alien's Form G-325A

- Copy of marriage certificate

- copy of alien's passport (biographical page, visa, entry stamps)

- copy I-94 (front & back)

- copy of I-20

- Form I-864

----> 4 earning statements that included YTD earning

----> copy of 2009 W2

----> 2007, 2008, & 2009 tax return transcripts

I didn't send my I-765 since I have a valid EAD that will due till July 2011, I may send the form around March 2011 if my GC process is still pending at that time. I also didn't apply for AP because I have a F visa that will not allow me to reentry USA if I have AOS pending, so i just have to wait to my GC to do my traveling.

I spent almost 9 months doing research and I am confident of my package. I hope everything will go well and wish everyone luck if you are doing your paperwork this Fall & Winter.

No, that is for September CR1/IR1 filers, this is a thread for September AOS filers from non-K visas (check the forum).

Good luck September AOS filers!!

Thank you for the replies.

I am adjusting based on F1, so hopefully someone who is doing the process in these two months will share the experience.

-------

After filing the AOS package, I then go through my copies again and found out some small mistakes I made.

for G-325A, I only know the country of birth of my parents, which is China, I only put China in the cell instead of just UNKNOWN. I hope I will not get RFE from that.

For I-864, it said "If you provide a photocopy of your tax return(s), you must include a copy of each and every FormW-2 and Form 1099that relates to your return(s). Do not include copies of these Forms if you provide an IRS transcript of your return(s) ratherthan a photocopy." I gave the transcripts and 1 copy of 2009 W2. I didn't see this part till today. Hopefully, it will not be a big deal when they check my paperwork. Also, I only included 3 months pay subs instead of 6 months to proof employment. (but the pay subs have YTD earning, so I hope it will be fine)

Anyway, the package was delivered on the 16th. . i am looking forward to receiving the email/txt notice from USCIS. I sent the E-notification form among with the package.

I just snet out my AOS package on Saturday, September 18, 2010, to the Chicago Lockbox. Now the waiting begins.

Does anyone have an MSC receipt number and is unable to check the case status online??

I got the msg from USCIS that my applications have been received. I can't check mine, I think the # is available but not yet in the system.

I got a msg that " We suggest you wait until you have received your Form I-797 before checking My Case Status." So I guess we should just wait for the actual I-797.

Got a msg that they has received my applications... took them 6 days... not bad, but they still haven't cashed the check yet.....

Hi Everyone,

I have been here quite a while hoping that it will be over soon. I had my I-130 approved in August but I-485 denied because we failed to submit one single document. The W2 from my joint sponsor. Anyhow I have refiled again and hopefully everything will go smoothly this time.

Good luck to everyone!!!!
