I-90 replacement due to USCIS error - is Biometrics appointment required?

[Ben & Katie 13]

I recently removed the conditions on my 2 year green card but when I recently my 10 year green card in the mail it had an incorrect country of birth. I promptly filed an I-90 and included the incorrect green card and support. I didn't have to pay any fees to file.

Today I received a notice for a biometrics appointment. Is this usual? I only just had my biometrics taken just over 6 months ago for the removal of conditions. Given that it was an error by USCIS, I thought that they would just correct the error and process my new card, I don't see the need to take more time off work to retake my picture and fingerprints if nothing is wrong. Has anyone else had experience with this?

Thanks

Hi Ben & Katie,

So did you have to go for another biometrics? The same situation here...

My card had incorrect name and I filed I-90 with a fee waiver because USCIS told me it was error on my side when my uncle filed I-130's. I had sent my application sometime in May of 2014. I was requested biometrics on Jun 12, 2014. I made info pass appointment because it was taking so long and the IO told me just apply for N-400 and we will change your name there.

Yes they will require new biometrics. I filed i90 last May 2014 and I entered the US Dec 2013. They even made me do it twice (different codes). Check my signature.

Good luck!
