Just got an email from my lawyer that she got her paper copies of the NOAs today, so I am hoping that mine will show up tomorrow. She emailed me scans of hers though so I can at least print them out and use it as proof of lawful status, but I need an original copy for the Texas Department of Public Safety so I can apply for an ID card.

Fingers crossed for tomorrow.

Does anyone have any new updates? I presume that those of us who have completed biometrics may be receiving interview notifications within the next few weeks. It looks like the March filers have had luck receiving them quickly. One person received it a week after their bio was completed.

Fingers crossed for all!

I received my paper NOAs in the mail today.

About to head out to the local Department of Public Safety to apply for a TX ID card. Since I live in the middle of nowhere I am expecting there to be issues since they don't see applications like this very often in a small town like this.

Do you still make an Infopass appointment (they have a lot of open time slots at the local Denver office)and bring that in with your Biometrics letter or do you just walk in with the letter?

You do not make an InfoPass appointment for walk-ins. You simply walk-in and hope for the best.

Besides, your Biometrics will not be taken at the local USCIS Office in Denver. It will be taken at a local Application Centre-- mine was out in Aurora by I-70/Chambers.
