Well I had my biometrics appointment yesterday, in Alexandria, VA.

Things went well, and I'm glad one more step is done! Now more waiting!

Two things I want to mention for people still waiting for the bio appts....

1. Don't forget your marriage certificate! Bring an original certified copy if you can! I had to go back home for mine because I forgot it.

2. You can go early, even if it's 15 minutes it will make a difference. It seems like they schedule appts. in 1 hour blocks, so try to get there early and you will get through faster. I was there 15 minutes early (with all my paperwork) and no one was in front of me.

Congrats to everyone that had made progress this week!!

You could do the online one now. BUT make sure you sign up at the post office for Mail Forwarding! I sent in all my moving paperwork and changed my address online but they still sent my bio letter to my old address. Luckily we had the mail forwarded so I got it... just in time!

HI GUYS!

I Just discover VJ and is very cool. (I hope is not to late to take part of the october filers )

Recently on 10/23 i send all the papers for the AOS that were in the USCIS website. (I485, I30, I765, I693) and they send me the recipt on 10/29. I can see the status online since 11/16

But i also notice in VJ that many people send a form DS-230 that i dint send. (is not on the list of green card based forms)

Do I have to wait until they give an answer to send that form?

I know still early

Thanks,

Thanks for the advice! I really appreciate it!

Did you mail the AR-11 form or just filed it online? and did you also file the I-865 (Sponsor's Notice for Change of Address)?

Hi joshue, welcome to VJ and the October AOS filers. I'll add you to our October filers spreadsheet (see link below). Just need to know a few things:

- what Visa type are you adjusting from?

- what is the notice date on your NOA?

- what is your local ASC office (where you will have your biometrics appt)?

The DS-230 is not part of the AOS package.

Keep us posted on your progress.

Greg

I also mailed the AR-11, and the I-865. Too much is better than too little!

I had my biometrics today it went by really fast. I was in and out. Everyone was really friendly. Now we wait.

[minnew 4]

Update! Did my bio appt today as scheduled! Everything was quick and easy, everyone was really friendly! No cell phones allowed! Didn't ask to see my marriage certificate either.

Hoping for some touches on my cases soon!!!

Spent the rest of the day shopping with Inky:)
