How long does it usually take to hear back from USCIS about my biometrics appointment once I have sent all my docs for my AOS?

I know a few people who just got their biometric appointments last week and they only got their NOA's two to three weeks earlier. I don't know if it varies by state or anything though....

I got my NOA for AOS today. made my day

I know it doesn't sound all that important but it's irritating me to no end. i'm desperate for those spiral folders you can find everywhere in Oz. I've tried just about everywhere i can think of and i can't find them anywhere here!! I thought about getting some sent over but then remembered the difference in paper size here.

These are the ones i'm talking about.....http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://files.turbosquid.com/Preview/2011/05/24__15_17_34/folder01.jpg1a544cf0-5285-47eb-99ac-dd17635728eeLarge.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.turbosquid.com/3d-models/3d-folder-paper-model/607515&h=600&w=600&sz=30&tbnid=gkAEg9g52xuE4M:&tbnh=99&tbnw=99&zoom=1&docid=XxJKfX-LsnTZkM&sa=X&ei=5HTqTvimI-e1sQK19MCoCQ&ved=0CKsBEPUBMAk&dur=3908

Fixed the link above.

So do you want US sized ones? Or Aussie sized ones? I have one here that holds my resume. It's Australian size yes but like you I've been unable to find something similar here. You may just have to get a skinny folder (they do make some crazy skinny ones)... or get some sent over (I may have a spare here, I recall seeing one but they're Aussie sized)

[Travis and Meghan 24]

Ah, thanks I did try to find another link but got distracted and forgot about it. I guess i'll just have to make do with the few Australian ones i have left and find something else for my American sized paper. They're just so convenient for holding sheet music because they actually stay open, lol. It's funny some of the things that i jsut can't find here that never occurred to me

Yep. i use mine for my resume, and I have another at home that has all my music in it. It's convenient to be able to add pages easily. It's weird there's not something similar and folders just don't stay open! Sorry.. *binders* don't stay open :S

[Travis and Meghan 24]

Thank you for the links! I had pretty much given up for a while on finding anything, lol. It is really weird that you can't get them here, of all the things you can't get and this is one of them, lol

*waves* Just saying hello--I'm not an Aussie but I married one, so I hope it's okay to drop into this thread.

Thanks for the tip on using Paypal for money transfers. I didn't know there was a way to avoid a fee. That's good to know.

Welcome Totally okay even though you're the USC It's handy to post qn's and stuff here or in the Aussie forum to get country specific advice

Best of luck for the process

[Travis and Meghan 24]

Welcome! Great to have you here

Got my biometrics appointment letter in the mail today (well, it's probably been the letter box for a few days, we just haven't checked it). I looked at the post office stamp and it was posted the day after my NOA date. I was pretty surprised at that, i wasn't expecting to hear anything about it for a few weeks given it's Christmas

Congrats!! Are you going to try a walk-in?

[Travis and Meghan 24]

Nah, i think i may aswell just wait until my appointment date if my husband can get it off work. I figure it's less than two weeks away so it probably won't make a lot of difference if i try a walk in.
