biometrics appointment

[Yoink 7]

What is the typical time between NOA1 and the biometrics letter? Looks like some people are getting them right away (within a week)...

Also, if we filed AOS and EAD at same time is there 2 seperate biometrics or just 1?

BIO is typically 1 month after filing: http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/aoslis...p8=All&xfr=

2 different biometrics, one is thumb print (EAD) other is Ten fingers (AOS).

If you get both letters before biometrics, bring both letters to first bio appointment and perhaps they will do both at the same time.

Yes I see that appointments are about a month after NOA's... Its been almost 2 weeks but we haven't recieved a letter when the appointment is.

Don't worry you'll be getting it soon! And yes it will be for the I765 and I485.

All the best

Wait 2 more weeks, then if no letter, some have said they simply visited nearest ASC and did them walk in.

ok thats good to know... can I call one of these ASC's... what is the possibility that they will allow the walk-in cause the closest one I see still aint that close to me.

No way to call an ASC.

Question - does everyone have their photos taken AND the whole set of fingerprints for Biometrics?

Yes for I-485 BIO, but for I-765 BIO just thumb print needed as well as photograph.

Your NOA1 letters should have the biometric codes on it.

Like ASC Code: 2 or ASC Code: 3

Code 1 is 10 fingerrprints

Code 2 is one finger and photo

Code 3 is all of the above.

Yes, that's why I was asking - I wanted to make sure they weren't just keeping tabs on me only! J/K!

We got only one biometrics appointment for both I-765 and I-485.

I was wondering if the letter for the biometrics comes from the uscis at chicago or the local office where the biometrics are processed. Anyone knows?
