When you do your biometrics doesn't change the timeline, and neither does your location. EAD is approved at NBC and you can expect it 70-90 days from when you first filed. Early bio doesn't speed it up. So 2.5 more months to go.

So true that early-walk in's for bio's do not help squat. We recently had our bio's done in Buena Park, CA and I spoke to the security guard what he has seen and experienced (BTW - he has no problem allowing bio's in before the scheduled day and routinly allows it), then I spoke to the technician about what advantage is there for early walk-in's and the response was none, nada! She said that the system is designed more or less on a que where it forwards the collected bio information to the next processing step at the time of the scheduled appointment date, weather or not it is 2 weeks early the information basically is captured but is not forwarded for processing.
