Hello,

 

I just want to share few things. I have received bio letter for the appointment early last month. Which was one day exactly before our already scheduled vacation. So I have decided to go one day early, but was turned around because the office does not do walk ins. Ok. So they told me I have to reschedule it or come back a day later and they will honor my appointment written on the letter. So I did that. I went again next day. It was short and normal. Good experience.

Well the reason I am writing this is that now on my USCIS account I see that my bio was done twice.  The day I have tried walk in and then it is showing second time again. The day of my actual bio. Just with different date. Two reviews completed with 2 dates.

Conclusion:

1) maybe it is a glitch. Maybe the system somehow knew Ill be there a day early.

2) maybe they have a face recognition camera inside. Same like airports, casinos and more.

3) maybe my GC has a chip in it and after the entering their office it took my info from it.

 

And then it automatically uploaded the info into the system that the bio was done. Even it was not.

 

I just want to say that first time they did not ask me about my ID, Passport, GC , fingerprints, name ,....nothing. They just told me you have to come back, we don`t do walk in app.

.......

 

Coming back from vacation with the 18 mo letter was not a problem. It took the BPO only few more minutes to go over the letter. My wife and my kids have  US passports so they had to wait a bit...:-)

 

Thank you

Most likely a glitch. I have the same thing. Fingerprint Review Was Completed on the day I had the bio and the following date it updated again with the same status but the day was different. I have seen multiple people here on VJ saying the website shows 2 dates for fingeprint review was completed.

How can I check the status of my petition?When I try on this website,I get an error message

I used to get that error message in the beginning but then it stopped. I think the error just means they didn't update the tracking system with the number yet but if you filed in October it should be there I'd think.

Try signing up for an account instead because you can track it that way sooner I believe.

So we received the RFE letter two days ago and it doesn't quite specify what they need and just giving examples of additional evidence we can send as they said " The documentation submitted insufficient because the evidence is limited ".

At the time that's all we had though so I'm so very glad that our lives changed since then as we bought a house together and had a baby daughter.

We have until November 2nd to send everything but I'll probably have it there by the end of the month if not sooner.

Hi shorouq, you could attach the envelope to the front of a bigger envelope so at least you’re doing what they ask you to do. It might get to the right desk faster, you never know! Good luck!

What are they asking for RFE?

They did not specify just more evidence in general like birth certificates of children, more proof of living together and more financial evidence.

On Saturday I mailed a package to switch my joint application to divorce waiver and the tracking number shows it's delivered this morning. I also included additional evidence (not really new, just beef'd up evidence) So nervous! Fingers crossed and hoping for the best!
