Hi VJ friends,

My AOS application has been received on Jan 6, 2011 and we received the actual NOA on Jan 12. However, we haven't received biometrics letter yet, is the waiting time normal? How long do you guys usually have to wait for the biometrics?

Thanks.

Thank you SisJ,

We are thinking about call them if we haven't received the biometrics letter after 30 days. Thank you!

Yup, if you haven't received it by 30 days from your NOA, you can put in a service request. If you call prior to that they'll most likely tell you to call back at 30 days. What is your local USCIS office?

Hi Jo,

It varies, depending mostly if your ASC office is back logged or not. Some get theirs sooner others later like mine. I waited 5 months for my biometrics to arrive from the day I received NOA1. Check my timeline. Be patient and positive it may take awhile but it will come...:)

Good Luck!!

Yup, if you haven't received it by 30 days from your NOA, you can put in a service request. If you call prior to that they'll most likely tell you to call back at 30 days. What is your local USCIS office?
