If they ask you to do it again, you have to do it. This is what happen to me. I have to do 2 biometrics within a 2 months time span. You call USCIS customer service, they will tell you the same thing. Different files are distributed to different departments/officials once they receive your AOS package, so it is up to the officer's discretion and if you play tantrums and don't turn up for it, potentially your case will get deny. By the way, on the top right hand of your NOA, what is the code number? Because 1 means to do both photos and fingerprints, 2 means photos only, 3 means fingerprints only. Mine is 3, so I just need to do fingerprinting for my 2nd biometrics.

the second appointment its the code 2 coz the first one it was the code 3 and i did the both the finger printers and the photo.so how long it takes to get my EAD? thanks

look at my time line for EAD approval. still, it varies on individual.

the second appointment its the code 2 coz the first one it was the code 3 and i did the both the finger printers and the photo.so how long it takes to get my EAD? thanks

I am not really sure why you said that. But, no, you can't get your EAD yet, since your NOA specifically said the 2nd biometrics is for your I-765 (EAD). Look at my time line for EAD again if you are not sure. I got my 1st biometrics on 06/02 for both I-485 and I-765 and got my I-765 approve on 07/14. But then, I am requested to do a 2nd biometrics again, but this biometrics is strictly for my I-485 only.
