Hubby spoke with a real live person at the USCIS. Not everyone has to have a biometrics done is what they told him. Is this the case with some? :unsure:

I don't think this right, a lot of times wrong information is given to the callers. I would try calling again or just wait for your biometrics appoinment letter.

Everyone removing conditions must have their fingerprints taken, that is why you also pay a fee.

YGandMAT is right. I think under 14 are exempt from bio. tri_gear your hybby spoke to Customer Rep or an Immigration Officer? Customer Reps are well know to dis-inform.

Hi there

I am still waiting for my biometrics letter to come, it seems liek USCIS is stopped sending them.

I will going on vacation in Sept for 22 days, and am worried that I will miss the biometrics appointment, what if they sent the letter when I go on the trip, and appointment is within the date I was travelling too. What should I do if I really missed it?

Please advice.

You may ask someone you trust to continuously check your mailbox. If the biometrics appointment is during the time you're overseas, you may request to reschedule it (but most likely it's gonna elongate the i-751 process).

GREAT!!!!! Well I suppose like anything else we can't do anything else but just wait for this biometrics letter to come. It just irks me that others who sent in their case AFTER us have already gotten through their biometrics..sux!

It's very very rare, but I saw few filer got approved without Bio before.

Read this thread Biometrics :) (FYI, USCIS didn't give them a refund as far as I know :whistle: )

tri-gear, are you sure you're removing conditions? Your timeline would indicate that you've recently filed for a CR1 visa.

Yes we have just filed for a CR1, i'm not sure why someone mentioned "removing conditions" I have no idea what that even means. We are just waiting for the next step which is a biometrics appt., then NOA2, then off to the NVC like everyone else.

Help Please:). We still cannot get to the case status using the receipt number on the NOA1. I noticed that most people from CSC already have their biometrics date apprx 1 month out from when they received their Notice of Action. However, if that is true, we should be preparing for ours in the next two weeks, but we still don't have that letter and it has been 17 days. If I call USCIS they can't find it using the WAC**** number on the NOA1, so this is almost helpless. Should we be worried?

I looked at your timeline and saw that you filed in the end of June. you still have minimum 30 days after your NOA to wait for your Bio letter. We revived ours after 30 days + don't panic as you can't use your NOA number for online status as you should wait for your bio letter where you can find your "tracking number" - I believe it's called CR I-89 :) you can start worry after 30 days :)

I too am awaiting a biometric letter - though as I live in bush Alaska I suspect that it could be sometime as the field office is what they term mobile.

It looks like there was a little flurry of biometrics letters and now a lull. I know that it hasn't been 30 days since the NOA but I don't like the lull. I had been hoping to have my husband go early to get his biometrics but earlier postings showed no such luck at the Detroit office.

Hopefully everything will get moving.

Have got Biometric appointment 07/27/2010 - however will need to see if there is another way to do this otherwise this means hanging out in Dutch Harbor for 3 days to wait for the flight back at the tune of $550 and the cost of hotels for 3 days !! Has to be a better way - I Hope!!!

Detroit office didn't let my husband in and he had a good reason for early biometrics. They were very nice about it, but said they can't do it until the appointment.....there wasn't anyone else there either. :crying:
