:whistle:

Thank you very much for your help "need Patience",I just read your post and gave a try calling again and this time like u said the lady was very helpful and took

a bunch of information and gave me a ref number and told to call if we didn't receive anything,and she said we did the right thing by calling again since been more than 50 days since the NOA date.

Biometrics appointment today. Very fast, simple, employees all nice. Hoping I get EAD soon. I was selected for a paid internship but can't start until I have EAD. Deadline is Nov. 1st. Should I try NOW to expedite - anyone know how? Calling congressmen or senators office? Or wait for a few weeks to try those, if I haven't received any updates from USCIS?

It seems like I have a lot of time but some people have not gotten EAD until almost as same time as interview :o Plus I can't apply for social until after get EAD....

Thanks for your suggestions and hoping everyone waiting for bio letter gets it today, so you can have a relaxed weekend!!!

oops..and I am in the wrong one! Guess it's still been helpful to see others that are waiting for their letter in the other categories!

Hello Suley & Tami, I submitted my packet same date as yours but I already had my biometrics last August 12th. Hope I could receive my EAD soon because I have a final interview with an employer on September 1st.

I hope you get your biometrics appointment soon! good luck to all of us!

Good to know we are not the only onces still waiting for biometrics after 2 months. Our application was received 6/17/11 at Chicago Lockbox and we have all NOA1's dated 6/22/11

Already called last week and basically the same ... lady took some general info, gave us a ref number and told us to call back in 30 days if we hear nothing.

if you are not too far from your field office, you can make an infopass and find out more that way. They will tell you whether you're in the queue from appointment and when yours is scheduled. I was able to find that out during an Infopass and after much convincing and waiting (5 hours), they agreed to let me do my biometrics right then and there.
