UK AOS 2009 Thread

[JimandChristy 1,689]

I'm pretty sure biometrics aren't required for AP/I-131. I did exactly the same as you, and yep only had barcodes for AOS and EAD on my ASC appointment letter too. In fact if you look at the NOAs, AOS and EAD both mention biometrics required next but AP doesn't - I really don't think they're needed. Also visajourney timelines don't have a space for it which convinces me! Hope that helps, someone please correct me if that's wrong?!

Biometrics is only for EAD and AOS, don't worry!

Thanks for clarifying!

Hi guys,

I had biometrics done in New Jersey on Saturday so that's done. Good to tick it off. Just checked case status on the new website and our case was transferred to CSC on the 22nd of September which I guess is good news. The only slightly weird thing is that my I485 case comes up on line as being in "initial review" which makes sense but the I765 can not be found in My Case Status. Hoping the EAD will just arrive in the Post no worries. Have a good week everyone

I had my bio last weds and I haven't had so much as a touch as of yet.....I'm trying to be calm....but i want to look for a joooooooooooooob!

@ Emma - I think most people were notified by email that the AP had been granted, BUT.....USCIS updates are not always the most reliable!

Great news Magpie, what kind of work are you going to be looking for?

[Gemmie 142]

Congrats Magpie, you can start having a life again!

I got my NOA1 for all 3 applications today (but dated 24/09).

[Ellie-and-David 38]

Yay! Glad those NOA's found their way to you. I have updated the spreadsheet to include this, but was wondering...did I read it right that you had the HPV in the US and used Dr A's services?

[Gemmie 142]

Yeah, that's right. We received a sealed envelope for immigration on 08/07 exactly a week after sending it out.

For some reason, the receipt numbers aren't working on the website, it just says our case cannot be found at this time. Perhaps it's just a server glitch.

mine showed up online a few hours after they came in the mail, so keep trying!

[MARM 7]

Congrats Magpie!!! :dance:

[KnightAndMagpie 7]

Thankums, guys!

And Emma, my AP just appeared in the mail...didn't get an email or anything!

Gemmie, grats for getting your NOA1 -- it's a really nice feeling . And then, there was me thinking my EAD was going to happen much later than it did!

Julie Ivy, I'm not sure what I'll be doing...to be honest, I do have a very pretty degree in my pocket, but I want to avoid retailing. There's lots of jobs up here at the moment so I'm going to have a look around. I might even look into animal rescue or something, but I don't know what kind of training that entails.

So, eeeeeeeee. Lots happening .

Magpie.
