10/05 usps mail delivered

10/14 checks cashed

10/19 got 3 NOA for 485, 131 and 765 under my name and the NOA for 130 under my husband's name. It says in all the notices that our applications were received on 10/6 and the notice date is 10/13.

10/23 received biometric appointment for 11/5 at USCIS Chatsworth, CA

10/28 I tried walk in and they let me do biometrics at uscis Chatsworth, CA ☺..

I'm kinda nervous though because some of my fingers are deformed and the man who did my fingerprints was having a hard time getting the fingerprints right. Just praying that they go through ok and that I don't have to go back again. ?

Good luck with that, try not to stress although I know this is so stressful!

I'm surprised you got one before you had your biometrics appt. Look at the bright side, they're touching your case!

I know this may sounds like a silly question, but will doing a walk in biometrics appointment help move the case along faster?

i know i'm just worried it will delay by EAD/AP now which i've seen mixed posts about when you get a RFE :( Hopefully i can still get it before chinese new years so i can go back to see family

I know this may sounds like a silly question, but will doing a walk in biometrics appointment help move the case along faster?

This gets asked just about every month in the monthly threads and it doesn't seem to make significant difference since most people only go a couple days before their appointment. But i guess any little thing could move it along just slightly faster. :)

Romet I've checked other months threads and for some people it has and for other it hasn't. I think it also depends on the kind of visa you had before, location and if you get any RFE .. We'll see what happens in my case

i'll definitely keep everyone updated. I'm suspecting it's super minor too. I think it's because my printer was starting to run out of ink and the last couple pages the bottom bar code may have been too light for them to scan. So i'm suspecting i need to resubmit the I-485 form. we'll see :(
