August 2012 AOS Filers

[Timon 26]

Yep, definitely not easy. I've decided to learn a new language and brush up on another I know so that's keeping me busy right now!

I check the USCIS site every morning and evening...

Lol and it's only been a week since i did my biometrics. I'm going to have to find something to do to occupy my time too.

Yep, I think its between 2-4 weeks you should get the interview notice, scheduled 4 weeks after.

Can someone answer: you do biometrics for 2 forms? I-485 and I-765? I have read that people gets 2 notices.

If you do the walk in with first notice, you have to go agin for second notice? If it digital fingerpreint, why don't they just take it from first one?

Yes, you do one for I-76 - this for your EAD which you'll receive before getting your PRC and another for I-485 for your green card. Reason why they have you do two,I don't know!

[Frenchican 13]

So the idea is that hopefully both appointment notices come in the mail at the same time?

Edit: mailman just came, nothing from USCIS

I only got one notice but it was for both forms. It did state biometrics for I-485 and I-765. When i went they took one set of ten prints

If there are two bar codes on your biometrics letter, it means you only need to go for one time.

That's what happened to most of people.

[epsonderby 85]

My letter has a barcode for I-485 and a barcode for I-765. I can't wait to get it all out of the way and move on to the interview!

[epsonderby 85]

Also, my paperwork says MSC and I have an MSC application number. Does that mean I don't have to worry about my stuff going to CSC or VSC?

[Kim & Gesner 14]

I can't remember how many barcodes were on the biomatrics letter, I will have to check when I get home from work. I know there were two receipt numbers (MSC numbers). Husband said they took one of both hands (without thumbs) and then a set of thumb prints then one of each finger.

[Frenchican 13]

does only the "intending immigrant" has to go to bio appointment, or both spouses?

Also, people that just got their bio notice, has your status on USCIS changed? what about the people that completed bio?

Or is it still 1 "acceptance" & 2 "initial review"?

I went by myself.

There is not much thing the USC can do there, only if you need somebody to drive or translate for you.

Your status after bio appointment won't change, not until you get RFE or Interview notice.

Also, my paperwork says MSC and I have an MSC application number. Does that mean I don't have to worry about my stuff going to CSC or VSC?

If you didn't come with K1 visa You will definitely have an interview at your local office.

I am not sure if anything changes on the USCIS site but I would think either a) your EAD card goes into production b) you get an RFE or c) you get an interview letter would cause change. Mine haven't changed since we initially signed up online, last date of any activity was 08/17/12.

And, I went with my husband and was asked to have a seat while they went back to fingerprint him so there is nothing the USC can really do.
