I'll give a little update. Since filing the I-751 we moved from KC to Nashville. USCIS still has not updated my change of address even though I filed it after receiving my I-751 receipt on 5/5. Anyways fast forward and I finally had my biometrics letter forwarded to me by USPS this Monday for an appointment today in KC :rolleyes:. Spoke to someone at USCIS yesterday and they said to send it in requesting a new appointment and address change.

Nope, screw that....walked right into the Nashville ASC, there wasn't even a security guard there. In and out in 10 mins :D

Thanks for the feedback! That's good to know.

Totally late to this party but also an April filer! Below is how our timeline has gone so far.

 

03/30/2017 - Mailed I-751 package to CSC (90 days up on 05/27/17)

04/01/2017 - Package received at CSC per USPS tracking 

04/13/2017 - Received I-797 NOA with one year extension letter 

04/20/3017 - Received Form I-797C NOA Biometrics Appointment letter, appointment set for 05/02/2017

05/02/2017 - Biometrics appointment, 15 minutes in and out! 

 

Now the waiting begins anew, hoping this all gets done before the one year extension runs out. Wishing all fellow filers good luck and smooth sailing!

Hi, All,

I called USCIS customer service this morning and asked nicely if I could speak with the immigration agent about my biometric appointment since I'll be traveling in June and I haven't received the letter... I called at 8 am, and got a call back less than a minute from the agent.

He told me that my letter was mailed last Friday, and my appointment is on June 9th. And if I don't receive my letter on June 4th, I can call them again and they can fax the letter to me.

Weird thing is that he told me he only sees my physical address in the system but not the mailing address... We are in the middle of moving so I put my mailing address to my in-law's and they mailed the NOA1 to their place as well. Hopefully they did mail my biometrics appointment letter too my in-law's as well.

 

So, anyone is worried about the mail is lost or it's been awhile for you, call first thing in the morning, and ask nicely :)

 

Good luck, everyone.

 

Hopefully we'll receive the letter soon.

@Oli_C that's good info. I am a may filer and yet to get the biometrics letter. I have a international work travel coming on the 19th, dreading this biometrics letter. 

Can you please tell us what phone number did you call ?
