There was no change or touch on the website when I got my biometrics letter - only after I did the actual biometrics.

But I'm sure you'll be getting it soon! :)

>< are they stupid or what at that USCIS office ><

I called them to ask if i can just do a walk-in for my biometrics, and the lady told me that it's better to get an Infopass appointment, or just ask for rescheduling following what's written on the notice.

So I go on Infopass, and after i enter my postal code, I get an option to choose a local USCIS Office 1 hour closer then the one they wanted to send me too. So I call back the USCIS to ask them if it won't be an issue to go to that office, and the second lady tells me that I can't reschedule the appointment via infopass ...

what to do, what to do ><

I'm not sure about the location issue for biometrics, but we got our appointment letter last week for August 16th and just tried a walk-in on Monday (July 26). It was no problem at all, no questions asked even, they just took our appointment letter, checked ID and we were back out of there in about 15 minutes.

Good Luck!

what to do, what to do ><

Hmmm, is there anything worth going to in the are where the original appointment office is? Like, could you go there for a day trip? That way, if you go to do walk-in biometrics and can't, for whatever reason, the 2 hour drive wasn't all for nothing...

Hi my lovely November 09 friends

I just feel I should let you know, it's not worked out for me. Believe me, there is no one more shocked than me! If I hadn't bought a house here (outright) and brought my dogs I would have gone back home before now. Working out what to do day by day. It's not all in my hands, though.

I won't be on here much, but I so very, very much need to express what you all mean to me and when I can get on here, I will. I'll tell my story one day, but not any time soon.

Always thinking about you guys and wish you all so much happiness xxx

I am so sorry that this journey has turned into a nightmare for you, this is such a vulnerable position, I really feel for you. Do let us know if we can help in any way, if you're stuck somehow I'm sure one of us will have a good idea or way to help.

Hope to hear from you still, you are such an important and inspiring member of this community!

Lots of love!!
