I filled in the beginning of December.

I filed in late December and have not received my biometrics. The last time I got it taken anywhere was my adjustment of status more than two years ago. Case status still says case was received and notice sent out (I did receive that)

 

let me know if anyone is still waiting for their bio as well. 

i filled in early December and still waiting for my biometrics.

So today I got this update showing that case updates showing that fingerprint was taken even though I didn’t get letter for my biometric. Is this okay or should I call USCIS?

Yes, very common update. Read up other threads.

Thanks, should I call USCIS? I read last time some cases they didn’t receive any biometric appointment letter and next thing they know their applications got denied. So just wondering if I should call to verify with the USCIS

No

 

https://www.uscis.gov/about-us/uscis-response-covid-19

 

  • While biometric services (or other authorized collection sites) are temporarily suspended and/or operations are at reduced capacity, USCIS will reuse biometrics that were previously captured at the initial USCIS in-person appointment under certain circumstances and only when specific requirements are met. USCIS will reuse biometrics if:
    • USCIS is otherwise ready to adjudicate the open application, petition, or benefit request but cannot proceed solely due to the lack of current biometrics;
    • The individual previously submitted fingerprints and a photograph at an ASC (or other authorized collection site);
    • There is an exact A-file number, name, and date of birth match between the pending filing and the previous filing from which the biometrics were collected; and the individual:
      • Was scheduled for an ASC appointment that was canceled since the temporary closure of ASCs on March 18, 2020,
      • Is unable to schedule an ASC appointment (or appointment for biometrics collection at an embassy or consulate, where applicable); or
      • Filed a benefit request with an associated biometrics requirement after March 18, 2020.

If these requirements are met, a biometrics appointment is not required. This will remain in effect during the COVID-19 pandemic and will automatically expire on Sept. 1, 2020, unless expressly extended by the USCIS deputy director for policy.

 

 

Finally done.

My biometrics was supposed to be on March 18th (The same day they closed all the offices). I got a text today saying my case has been updated. When I checked my status online, it says biometrics has been applied. I am assuming they resued my biometrics based on the COVID notice.

Wow people getting approved in 5 months that’s crazy fast 

 

I am MSC - did fingerprint in January but status still hasn’t changed. Should I call USCIS to make sure they got the fingerprints ?
