Received NOA for I-485 and biometrics appt on Aug 6. Biometrics appt in a month.

Should i be expecting NOA for I-130 petition too and does my spouse also have to go for biometrics? Also i am unable to check the case status online using NOA receipt number. Any thoughts?

Good luck

A quick question. I have read people go in for the "walk in" biometrics appt earlier than their actual appt on this website. Is there any advantage in doing this wrt to speeding the application process? I have my appt in Boston for Aug end, can i do an earlier walk in?

cheers

I haven't heard of anyone on here having problems doing an early walk-in. I think it does speed the process...we did an early walk in about 10 days ago, and this morning we have received our interview date already. Our original biometrics appointment wasn't even scheduled until August 15th.

what do they want ?

The income of my husband did not meet the 125% poverty line. So we need a co-sponsor now. Hopefully we can provide it very soon.
