ASC appointment notice letter after 2 weeks in the states

[Svadharma 11]

Hi everyone,

I'm sorry if this is the wrong area to post this question, but I wasn't sure where to post. My husband arrived on August 31, 2009 with a CR-1 visa.

Today we received an ASC Appointment Notice (code 2) and I am wondering why we got this and what it means. He just had fingerprints done at the embassy and at the port of entry. Has anyone else had this experience? Is this normal?

Thanks in advance!

WHEN did he arrive? Surely not Aug. 31, 2009. Anyway, has he applied for AOS? Fingerprints are required again (biometrics) as part of the process of getting the work permit & green card.

Woops, sorry about that. He arrived on July 31, 2009. But he didn't apply for AOS because he arrived with a CR-1 visa.... So, I'm not sure why they need biometrics. We aren't trying for AOS and we don't need to remove conditions for 2 years.

We received a CR-1/IR-1 and my husband did not have to get finger printed once he enter the US. The only thing we had to do was wait for the green card to arrive. However I would post this question on the CR-1/IR-1 forum. It is possible that the process has changed since we were approved in Sep 07.

It could be possible that the fingerprints they took when he arrived at the POE aren't good enough to use so they are requesting him to redo them. There is a finger or thumb print that is actually part of the green card.
