I also just got my biometrics. I submitted my application on  the 10th of April. I'm so excited. I celebrated like i got the Permanent card. I'm a LIN filer, my friend is also a LIN filer, she got her card about 6 weeks after biometrics. I'm hoping for same or even better grace. Wish everyone the best. Can't wait for this phase of my life to be over.

Also curious, if an I-751 applicant moved states i.e. local office change, does that change the processing time based on the local office capacity?
Or it doesn’t change because it’s still the same receipt XXX/ service center?

 

I anticipate moving sometime next year, but by then I would be almost hitting the processing time. I worry if the change of address slows me down “even though the new field office might be less busy”?

Or is there a chance of speeding up due to the better capacity at the new field office?

I’m also curious too. Did your friend apply to remove conditions? Was there an interview?

As recent trend shows, most LIN cases are approved without the interview.

Yes without interview. Most LIN filers are getting approved two to three months without interview. I believe I Won't  have one too. My friend actually did her biometrics on the 27th of July and got her card first  week in September and she is one of those  people that did not have a lot of supporting evidence. This is ROC.
