STILL waiting for the mail. I also did the same mistake of putting Chicago as my field office instead of Baltimore. 

 

 

Checked the mailbox after writing this and I got my I-797C

Did not receive an email - it came as a hard copy in the mail :).

Hi guys,

I received my biometrics notice today too! March 5th at 9am in Salinas. We are supposed to be out of town for a much-needed break but I don't want to re-schedule because I don't want to mess things up. I will re-book flights and cancel the hotel to make sure we make it.

 

Good Luck Folks

Before you rebook flights and hotels, have you considering trying to do a walk-in appointment next week instead?

Towards the bottom of the biometrics appointment notice there is a part where it states you can request for it be rescheduled (this will not guarantee the week after the scheduled date and you are unable to do a walk-in appointment after the date on the notice).  Perhaps send a handwritten letter with the notice detailing your reasons.  It's worth a shot!  Make sure you photocopy your notice before sending it to be rescheduled.  Also perhaps send it overnight/next day delivery too - at least, that is what I would do! :).

 

Edited to add: If you choose to add a handwritten letter with the reschedule request, make sure to include your A number, full name and address.

Hi, just want to ask what is your PD?

Wow, things seem to be moving fast once you get the NoA! 

 

We are still waiting for any notification. 

 

Sent package was delivered on 2/08.

Sooo happy for everyone that received their Bio appointments today! Congratulations to all and let the waiting begin! 

I have a friend that applied for her husband last year and she said that her interview was scheduled within 4 months of applying. Also his Social and work permit came 2 weeks before the interview which was a little off...
