no biometrics before receiving working card.. is this normal?

[nicky&imad 16]

Hi everyone So I haven't posted anything on here for a long time so now is the time to show my presence again, lol Anyway, so my husband and I filed for his AOS in March. we did receive an RFE in April and sent everything they needed, at the same time we filed for his working card, ofcourse. We kept checking the USCIS website after we sent the RFE answer into them, and one day we checked and they received it. So after, we kept checking on his working card and one day it came up that on May 15 th they mailed us the appt for biometrics and fingerprinting and if we didn't get anything within 30 days ..blah blah, you all know the story. So about 10 days go by and we didn't get anything and we were kind of freaking, so I called USCIS and the girl said not to worry we would recieve before the 15th of June. So I said ok. Then another week passed and I was still worried and I kept checking the website. Then lowe and behold a different message was there. It said his working card was being put into production on June 6th, so ofcourse we were excited that he would be able to work soon. The next day, just for the heck of it, I checked again and it said it was being printed up!! I was like WOW!!! Only one day later?? That's fast and then I just checked now and it says it's been mailed out already on the 7th and he would recieve it via USPS tomorrow My question is, after all this yackity yacking I'm doing... Why was he not given an appt for his biometrics and fingerprinting?? I thought everyone had it done before the working card because it was stated in the i-765 that they mailed it, not in the i-485. I'm just so confused.... gaaaahhhhh Don't get me wrong, I am so happy that he can start working because he is so bored. Thx in advance for anyone's help

It's rare but it happens.

You should find out what is going on with the biometrics honestly. They sent you an appointment notice which means they expected him to show up. Missing biometrics can deem the application abandoned.

I would make an infopass and go in to inquire about this.

According to the lady at USCIS, We can't do anything until the 15th of this month anyway. I just thought it odd. I will find out in 5 more days. Thx for your help
