No clue on how to update the list, thus here is my info:

mailed in application05/30/08

NOA 1 June 03 2008

Biometrics scheduled for June 26 @10 am BUT I'm currently in Canada, and my wife just returned to VA today(from Canada), so she will be sending in the letter to reschedule the appt, for a later date.

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

Hey guys,

My original Biometrics was suppose to be on June 26, but im in Canada, so it is now rescheduled for July 09. They were very quick at rescheduling it. We recieved the new date about 1 week after mailing out requesting a new date.

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

Road-block in Boston... I had biometrics on 6/6. I called USCIS today to inquire about my name check status, much like some of you did. The rep said that USCIS does not disclose info on name checks. She basically read whatever was available online in the Case Status section. She also said that normally USCIS does not post biometrics dates in the online case status section.

What say you, guys? Touch luck - try another rep? Or just sit tight and wait?

I have read that you can call the FBI, 304-625-5590, and ask for the status of your name check. They will only tell you if they received the name check request and if it has been sent back to USCIS. They will not tell you the result. I have not called the FBI yet because my wife just did her biometrics last week but will try to call next week. If you do call let us know how it goes.

Boston Chick,

Did you talk to Customer Rep or IO ? Because Customer Rep don't know anything about name check status and they don't have access to see that information but just IO. You need to talk to actual IO to find out more details about case. I called them last week and make sure my Name check is cleared and I'm in queue for interview date.

I am not sure how to add to the list, so I am just putting my information here.

Sent N-400 May 31

NOA1 arrived June 12

Biometrics appointment June 26

The biometics appointment was in Buffalo, New York. I was suprised to see on the biometics notice that if I could not go to that appointment, that I could go instead any wednesday until mid-September. However, I had no reason for delaying.

Good luck to everyone!
