Sorry to hear that.

How much does your USC miss to be the sponsor?

Four weeks and still no hard copies ? I feel like most people here had their bio appointment after four weeks. They have the correct address so that's really frustrating ?

Hi all,

Just thought I would give an update on how I am going in the process in case there is anyone with a similar timeline to me.

Timeline is reflective of where I am at the moment. Everything feels like it has come to a halt. It has been 40 days since my filing date for my EAD/Travel Document, and I still have not received a letter for my Biometrics Appointment. Which means there are now only 25 days until my current Working Visa expires, and I am almost guaranteed at this stage to be without work for some time.

I anticipated a gap between my work visa and receiving my EAD (we had to scrounge together the money for the application, otherwise we would have submitted it earlier), but it's looking like the gap is going to be more and more financially stressful.

After roughly 25 days and not receiving the Biometrics Appointment notice, I called USCIS and they said it had not been sent out yet, but to wait 5 more days before they can put in a service request (I realize that they often say it has not been sent out yet when it has in fact been sent, so I wasn't too disheartened at that stage). I called back after 30 days and they put in a service request, asking me to call back 15 days later if I had not heard anything, email, text, letter, or otherwise. So I guess my next step is calling up on October 26th (which will be 47 days after the filing date, and 18 days before my working visa expires).

Is anyone else experiencing such delays with receiving the Biometrics Appointment notice? I know there is a lot you can do to speed up the EAD arriving (contacting your local congressman, request for expediting, contacting at 75 days), but it's my understanding all of these things require you having first attended your biometrics appointment...something which feels a long way away from me.

Any advice or words of encouragement wouldn't go astray - feeling the stress more and more each day that letter doesn't arrive.

First - fill out your timeline under "My timeline" - this helps update the statistics on this community.

If you want your timeline to appear in your signature, you'll have to edit that separately in your profile.

Hi. I am in a similar situation. My filing date was September 21. Since then I only got the text messages. Nothing else. I called uscis. They told me I have to wait another 7 days until they can put in the service request. I already am

In the situation that I can't work and it's hard. I mean of course my husband would give me money but I am a way to independent gal to accept that ?

Yeah man, I feel you. We would probably be okay financially but we were just getting into a position where we were comfortable financially, so I would hate to lose my income for a month++.

I don't have the letters on me but I believe my notification letters came around a week after submitting. I was feeling optimistic at that time, but it hasn't reflected the time it has taken for everything else, if that's any consolation.

Be grateful you didn't send in the wrong check amount like me! That knocked us back about three weeks...

The only advice I can think of is to reattempt the joint sponsor search (I'm assuming the assets option is not on the table...)

The persons who sponsored your I-134 won't do it on your I-864?

Yes, all you can do is keep finding a co-sponsor.

Okay. Just curious you don't have to answer. But why didn't you wait on filing AOS when you knew the income wouldn't be met and there is no co-sponsor to find?

Your husband could have tried to find another job/an extra job first.

My husband is going to try a bio walk-in tomorrow. I hope it works out! I have a job interview at the same time as his bio appointment and we only have one car, so it would be really hard for him to do it then.
