This is just a copy paste from what I've found regarding biometric codes:

 

• Code 1 is for fingerprinting of all 10 fingers. This is electronically sent to FBI the same day, they run it to match thru their database to match it with criminals/persons of interest and send the results the same day (or the next) to USCIS. Code 1 is very important as it is part of your security/background check and determines admissibility for GC. Code 1 expires after 15 months e.g. FBI needs to check their database again.
• Code 2 (right index finger only+photo+sign) is for the generation of cards for immigration benefits e.g. EAD, GC etc. If you filed for EAD, you definitely need code 2 or the card can not be generated. Code 2 is done everytime we apply for a benefit.
• Code 3 (fingerprinting all 10 fingers+photo+sign) is a combination of both, when USCIS wants to get a security check done on you as well as generate card.

My husband got Code 2 assigned. His biometrics will be on 8/28. We filed three applications: I-485+I-765+I-131 for him. Does Code 2 mean he will be having his fingerprints taken only once, for all three applications?

When were his last fingerprints taken (all ten) and what nationality is he?

I'm not sure.

Thanks! 
 

My health insurance enrollment is coming up and I need either an ITIN or SSN to add him. I’m hoping we will get the SSN in time, but who knows with the current environment!

i thought the same too initially, however, we have united health care, ive seen this from another post, and also confirmed it with my employer. just put all 999-99-9999 as a temporary ssn.

Your letter definitely got lost in the mail. Go the USCIS website, there's a form to fill out when you don't receive the notice from them.

Yeah I did about two weeks ago.. called USCIS almost two weeks ago to ask where my card was (they say on my case update that it was sent on July 23d), but the representative told me that they haven’t sent it out to me yet.. I don’t know, I don’t trust USCIS at this point 🤷🏼‍♀️

I spoke with USCIS as well and I was told same thing. Furthermore, I was asked to wait for 90 days from the day my ASC opened. It’s just so annoying.
