Well according to the USCIS website they are currently processing applications from August 3rd 2016 so looks like we have about a year to go folks!

Hello

 

I did not get my biometric appt after filing I751... Filed in CA center and my receipt day was 09/07. Called USCIS 1 week ago for non-delivery biometric notice and the lady said I will get response in 2 weeks. I waited 1 week now and no response yet. I am very concerned with the procedure is being delayed. Any thoughts?

Don't be worried. Not everyone will get fingerprinted. I went to USCIS Info Pass and they said that they will likely send a letter in December (so far away from August, I know) that they'll use previous biometrics due to "excess caseloads".

Thank you for all your response. I just got an email from USCIS after I requested what is going on my bio appt and it said they are unfortunately delaying their process and my name is electronically added to ASC scheduler and once their appt date is established they will mail to me. Sounds like I have to wait more.. Does that mean I will get a bio appt for sure or can be waived? I think the good news so far here is that I did not miss or lose any letter yet... Sorry! I did not mean to complain here but I felt a little frustrated.

Hi, no problem, happy to help.

Yeah I had same responses from them for me and my son, and then I called them again and  said I'm still waiting and didn't mention abt that letter. So then lady gave me that email address  where I wrote what I told you before, and they sent me same exact email respond abt delayed waiting, like yours, but after two weeks from that time I got waivers. I think I was just too annoying to them, lol. Try to send email, it won't hurt. But that letter abt delaying, doesn't mean anything, just automatic response I guess, cuz I had it too. 

Good luck. Let me know if you have more questions:)

I'm crossing my fingers for a little under a year. They're saying they are processing applications from Aug 3 as of September 30th. *fingers crossed* we will have it by next summer

Looks like its gonna be a long wait,anybody managed to get driver's license with i551 stamp after 1 year extension expires?

I still did not receive the biometrics letter but i called level 2 officer who told me when is my appointment and i did a walk-in successfully.

I received an interview letter today in the mail, filed in August. I didn't receive any letter regarding biometrics being waived. Has anyone else received an interview letter?

Wow that's great. Can't believe they went through your papers already, it's been 4 months only. Well the great thing is you gonna have you GC soon and won't need to wait over a year. 

What center did you apply and what date  has you interview been scheduled? 

I don't think anybody here have gotten any news yet, so you will be the first one.

Good luck!

[Hamzah and Amna 23]

Interview is scheduled for December 19th at 10:AM. I am surprised too i was expecting a biometrics letter. Idk if its a good thing or a bad thing

That was fast. Don't worry, if they didn't request for more evidence you should be fine, just bring what they ask for your interview and you will be all set. Let us know how after you done.

Not to be discouraging, but something seems a little off here.

USCIS has been taking a year or more for both Vermont and California centers.

I called again today and they put in anotjer service request to check on the status of a biometrics letter. They said they were surprised that biometrics was taking so long, but that the response should arrive by mail or email in 15 or so business days. 

 

When I asked, the person I got also said that the biometrics appts are sometimes cancelled if there has been another one within 18 mos.
