AOS FILERS: OCTOBER 2008

[Beantownbabe 1]

My case was transferred to CSC two days ago!

On November 4, 2008, we transferred this case I485 APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS to our CALIFORNIA SERVICE CENTER location for processing and sent you a notice explaining this action. Please follow the instructions provided on the notice. We will notify you by mail when a decision is made.

Great! Maybe no interview for you guys then! Hooray!

Hey guys- I'll be unable to update the spreadsheet everyday for the next week or so- we moved last weekend and I haven't gotten the internet at home yet. Sorry for the inconvenience.

It`s all good! Enjoy your new place in peace

Bytheway, I`ve got my biometrics letter! 11/20 is the day!

And to the rest of october filers: congrats on your biometric letters and CSC transfers!

Hi - It means that you will soon receive a letter from USCIS asking you to provide information. Sometimes, it could be that you forgot to sign something for instance - or it could be that they need tax information or something like that. Infact it could be anything and sometimes it is something that you provided already and they lost it! All you need to do is wait until the letter comes, then find out what they need and send it back to them - your case will resume once they receive what it is they are looking for. Good luck!

So I went to Biometrics this morning - all went well except for the fact that it was raining and it messed up my "look good for the picture" hair!!! I looked like a drowned rat once I got inside, but it was a smooth process and quite interesting. I don't know why I didn't even realize that they scan your fingers...I guess I'm old and expected to come out with ink everywhere! It was interesting to see all the different races in the office and now I'll wait to see if my file gets touched online. Who is up next?

Did you have to put your hair up when taking a picture like on passport photos??? Just a thought...

They didn't ask me to put my hair up and I have long hair.

No, she just said "look at the camera!" and as soon as I found it she clicked. I heard one of the other people ask someone else, "do you want to smile for your picture?" I just got the click!

Yes, I notice it got touched yesterday afternoon, I guess when they input the information from Biometrics. Both I-485 and I-765 - We filed I-130 also, but that status remained the same. It will be interesting to see who gets their EAD's first, huh?!

Completed Biometrics. Went really Fast and smooth 30mins tops. My wife had her passport with her other last name on it. Lucky we were prepared with Marriage Papers. So dont forget that if you dont have an updated ID with your current marital last name.

Sounds like my experience - I had my passport as I.D with my maiden name, but thanks to VJ came armed with my marriage certificate - they didn't care about it! I had to ask the woman if she needed to see it and she told me no! Like you though, I would recommend that you take it anyway!
