Default Adjustment of Status through Lottery Visa with a E2 Visa

Hi,

I have a E2 Visa and I have been selected for further processing in the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program for the year 2010.
The next step would be to do an Adjustment of Status through the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program.

I read on some web sites that people who hold a E visa can't apply for an Adjustment of Status...

Has anyone more information?
Can I apply to an AOS in my current situation?

Thanks!

As an E-2 visa holder in the US you are entitled to apply for adjustment of status through the DV lottery. To do so you must waive your formal treaty rights which is done by submitting one additional form with your AOS application.

Do I need to fill out an I-508?
I am a French citizen, and based on what I read, I should probably fill out a I-508F

Thanks!

I believe only the I-508 is required unless you receive a salary from the French government.
