I think I read that you should wait for 30 days ,I assume 30 days from the notice date on your NOA1s.But if you get transferred in between to CSC then I have no idea though.Our aos got transferred today,but no sign of the biometrics letter yet!!

Congratulations on your transfer to CSC. I guess I will have to wait my turn.

Attended my biometrics appointment on Wednesday at Kansas City. It went without any problems.

Although we were almost an hour early (appointment was at 11, we got there around 10:10) they still waved us in and let us join the queue. The security process was simple, and the guard very friendly and polite. We were handed a ticket number and a form to complete whilst we waited for our number to be called. They were already calling number 16 when we arrived, and ours was number 18. We waited about 10 minutes at most and were called in.

The form was pretty simple - name, date of birth, address, alien number. There were also some questions about height, weight, eye color and hair color. Nothing too scary - after all the immigration forms we've filled in already, this was pretty tame.

We were called through and asked to take a seat whilst the officer took our form. They were fine about allowing my husband to come in with me. The guard entered the information we had entered on our form, and then asked us to verify he had entered all the information correctly, then he took my fingerprints and my photograph. He was very friendly and polite throughout.

One thing that was strange - I took my marriage license with me, because I am applying in my married name and my passport is still in my maiden name, but he didn't ask me for any proof of marriage. I was worried that he had overlooked asking me to show the license, so I asked him about it and he said there was no need. I was a bit surprised about that.

Anyways though, he stamped my appointment letter, handed me it and my passport back, asked us to complete a customer satisfaction survey and then said we were good to leave. We were only in the office a total of 30 minutes.

Now on to the next stage!

funny..they made us drive all the way back home to get our marriage license! lol

Well... I have not received a biometrics letter yet :(

I just called USCIS and they asked me to call back on August 25th, since I had physically received my NOA in the mail on July 24th. The USCIS case status shows they received my packed on July 22nd. UGH!!!!

On the 25th, when I call back they will submit a request to check my case and explain to me the status. They will also push forward to schedule me a biometrics appointment. Five more days... I hope I can hang in there! Or better yet, I hope my letter reaches me before then!!!!

Got the RFE-and surprise!- it's for something we definitely DID submit.. but thankfully, it's something easy to obtain.

Dated August 16th, envelope stamped August 17th, and I received it today (the 21st)

Verbatim:

"Submit all supporting tax documentation (W-2s, 1099s, and all supporting tax schedules) submitted to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) from the petitioner/sponsor on Form I-864, Affidavit of Support, for the most recent tax year"

So basically you got the same RFE as me almost. They must have a goblin running around eating up all the I-864 stuff. :angry:

Up side is though, once you send your docs in they get back to working on it quickly. A few days after I sent mine in I got the news that we were transferred. Not that it's good news, I would have much rather had an interview since it's much quicker.

Goblin's the only answer-or lobotomized USCIS interns... haha. I *know* we sent it-Matt (my husband) is super meticulous and went over his part (taxes!) like 5 times, then I went over it about 8 times with my own eyeballs! It's last year's tax stuff-who HASN'T sent that to them?! haha..

I'm taking the highroad in my headspace, though, and am happy that it's something easy/that we can re-send stat. Thanks for the anecdote/reassurance post sending the stuff though! I think I'm only tweaking out re: my Advance Parole-I want that by late September for my October roadtrip of awesomeness to Canada!

Wow I can't believe all these people not getting their Biometrics letter yet or in the case of one seen...late with very little notice. I was one of the lucky ones who got mine quickly and did a walk in on friday. Unfortunately I'm unlucky that my case in not showing online and since I got my NOA1's without getting a txt or email, I expect they misplaced that form and I won't be getting any. So I get to stalk to mailman instead of clicking refresh on USCIS's website! lol

I hope everyone gets their quickly and to the person who got transferred to CSC, congrats...I hope it goes quickly and without an interview for you.

Well I decided to check the USCIS website to see if they finally entered us into the system and sure enough all our AOS, my EAD and the kids AP's were in there....my AP is still MIA. I guess since we have our biometrics done it pushed it into getting entered in the system. Hopefully others who weren't entered will have theirs entered after their biometrics as well.
