After my biometrics ( 4th June) my case status didn't change as well and still says they received my biometric fee etc. I wouldn't be too worried about that, a lot of cases didn't get an online update until interview lol

Did you get a text or email about your NOA1, before you actually got a hard copy in the mail?

I got both txt messages and emails confirming receiving my 3 cases (AOS, EAD, AP). I marked texts and emails on 3 copies of G1145 that I included in each application supporting docs. Got them around a week before hard copy in the mail.

When you did your biometrics, did you ask the staff there how long would it take to have an interview? Haha. I want to do that when I go in to do my interview..

I had my biometric appointment at 4th June and I did not ask how long will take to have my interview, I think this question is pointless since nobody knows, the case is not even reviewed by this time and every office will have different timelines. I'm comparing other member's timeliness here in VJ (from the same local office) but every case is different so its never 100% accurate. You can check current waiting times here https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/

22 days and still no receipt..... I guess I have to wait the full 30 days.

I hope its not the case that it is just sitting on top of someone's desk while they are on vacation.

 

Anyone has been waiting long on their receipt? 

Thanks. Hopefully they'll get to my packet soon

I only got 1 letter for the bio appointment. Looks like I should have received 3 other NOA1 (for AOS, EAD, AP). Ugh. Guess I'll have to wait for it to come (though I can see the receipt numbers on myUSCIS).
