I got an update on the 22nd that the card was moved to production. I just say God did it.

Indeed it must have been the supranational power that helped you! I am doing a walk-in in Alexandria, VA. Fingers crossed. And I can see that all your documents were processed at the NBC??

Hi, Did you wait for an invitation to biometrics? Or did you just go and do walk-in? We sent our I-130 and I-485 files on 10/15 and NoA we received on 10/21, and I still have not heard anything about biometrics.

Yes,wait for your biometrics letter then do a walk in as soon a you get it dancin5hr.gif unless you are willing to wait til your biometric appointment date.

Hi Everyone,

I am new to this forum.I am an October Filer too. I am a F1 Status initially. I filed for my AOS on October 1st, Did my walk in Biometrics on October 22nd, Original biometrics date was Oct 28th. It's been almost two weeks I haven't heard anything and my online case status for i 485 is still stuck at Acceptance whereas i 130 & i 765 are at initial review, Is that normal? & also Does anybody know how long it's gonna take me to get my EAD?

Thank You,

Hi,Yes that is completely normal for your status to still show acceptance and initial review.Hopefully within a month there will be progress.AS for the EAD that is a totally diff department.It should take about 2-3 months to get it.My application still says initial review and its been a month.

I just wanted to tell you that I tried to expedite my AP application thru infopass and the officer was extremely rude and impatient. He turned me down because "your mother is only in the hospital and had a surgery, she is not dying"...I was like #######. So it's probably not a good idea to do infopass unless some immediate relative is really dying or just died I think.

then I called the 800 number this afternoon, the agent was so nice and helpful. He submitted a request to expedite my AP and I just got an email an hour ago saying that I need to fax them evidence that my mom needs me. So I am going to do that tomorrow.

btw how was your expedition experience?

The immigration officer was very nice.he told me he couldn't help me since my dad is not dying.I did call the 800 number and the lady offered to expedite but I really don't have evidence from the hospital so I guess I will keep waiting to be approved as soon as I aAm I will be outta here and will send a friend to Dhl the ap doc to me
