I would think that by default they don't let make your case go on top of the case pile just because you completed the biometrics.

But, if the agent cleared his pile, and the next guy in line completed bio, he will resume with case and not let it sit until your supposed-date comes.

If we review dates, it takes about 20-30 days after biometrics are complete to get interview notice. So if you complete before, it can advance 7-10 days the notice.

If you check the "july example" in the spread sheet, the girl walked-in. She got the interview unusually fast, but nonetheless before scheduled biometrics date:

- bio notice (day 18) with appointment (day 38)

- walked in on day 22.

- interview appointment (day 36)

Also, 7-10 days earlier don't change much the whole case, but if you are in a hurry to get your EAD, and the only thing they need is the biometrics. It might advance it a little bit.

--> August Filers spreadsheet

I was just looking at the spreadsheet you did. That's awesome Thanks. I hate math (can't do it) so i'd never be the one messing with numbers like that lo
