Hi guys, I finally got my biometric letter after 2 months waiting for it. Now i am wondering that can I come and do an early biometric around 1 week. Do I need to call them to ask about that or just walk in?

You can't call ahead. You just have to walk in. Bring your green card and the letter. If they're not busy, they'll let you do it early

Also depends on your local office, some do not allow early walk ins.

Green Card production notice came yesterday. I'll take that as an approval, although the approval circle on the USCIS status hasn't changed yet. Hard to imagine they've ordered card production without approving it.

Shouldn't be too long and some of the waived biometrics CSC cases should be coming up. I'm still very curious about this also, as the FBI considers biometrics current for 15 months, and this is supposed to be the standard used by USCIS.

I'm stunned, but I got the message that they ordered production of my new card today!! That's exactly 2 months from NOA1 date and I guess that makes me the first person with waived biometrics to be approved. I'm so happy the wait is over and I can't believe it was so fast! /happy dance
