Congratulation on the appointment!

I'm curious, do you have a time of a day indicated as well, or simply a date? I dread having an 8 am appointment! :P

Just did the Biometrics walk in....

i went to the NYC ASC, even though my appointment was for the Brooklyn ASC, no one mentioned the fact that i was 3 weeks early for the appointment, just that i was at the wrong ASC.

I had to explain that the reason i went to the NYC ASC is that i work about 6 blocks away, and it was so much more convenient just arriving there at 8am, rather than traversing my way to the unfamiliar location on the other side of Brooklyn to where i live....

They were super nice about it though.... although, there was a Chinese fellow who's appointment also seemed to be scheduled for Brooklyn, but they told him to leave....

I'm not sure why.... i think that either they didn't have sufficient translators, or he was doing Biometrics for a different reason....

Just something to be aware of i guess....

Hello,

I've sent my package in to Chicago Lock box on 11-10-10 and was received by USCIS on 11-12-10.

I received text message today 11-17-10 of receipt# MSC with 10 numbers with it in 4 text messages duplicated twice.

But I did not receive any emails.

What does that mean?

maybe they got the email address wrong.... you got word that they were received, thats all that matters....

there's probably a way you can update your email address when you are able to see your cases on the USCIS website...

it's fine

Thank you!

It's mid December and yes, we're gonna wait for it. It's at 8am, but oh well! We'll just make sure to leave super early! I don't really want to chance it by going in the after noon.

We just mailed our packet today...right before the fees go up! Nothing like last minute, but my hubby is a bit of a procrastinator and there's only so much I can do to push him ;)

Just curious, for those who do walk-in biometrics, what is the reason? Does this speed up your process if you are able to get in? Best of luck to everyone!
