Is it common that it takes so long to be placed in line for interview? I had my fingerprints taken on June 13th. My online status has been stuck in "initial review" since they sent out the bio appointment letter.

I did file 90 days early and my actual green card date is not until august 11. Could that be the reason or should I call USCIS?

Many, but not all, applicants are placed in line for interview scheduling one month before their 3 year or 5 year anniversary (plus or minus a day or two). Let's see if you get an update by Monday.
