So people that received the 12 months extention from California Service Center, do we expect to get a 18 months also? 

February filers for CSC just started to get their 18 month extension letters. So I guess we'll still have to wait

Hi 

 

The new 18 month extension letter also has details of bio metrics requirement . Does this mean we would have to go through another bio metric ?Can someone clarify i am confused ?

 

 

Hello, I received the 18 months extension. In the letter it said they will send me if I need to do biometric. I didn’t get any biometric letter yet. But if you already have completed biometric why do you need one again?
