Will USCIS Case Status Update After Fingerprints Are Taken?

 Share

Does anyone have experience whether the completed fingerprints will show up on USCIS case status, and in that case approximately how long until the status will update?

 

Once I finished freaking out about the previous mess with my I-751 petition, now there’s the next one. See, I thought I saw with other people that their case status had been updated with “Fingerprints Have Been Taken/Applied”.

 

I went to my rescheduled biometrics appointment at an ASC two weeks ago. Yet, the last update I can see on my case status is:

”Name Was Updated

I-751

Last status change: 104 days ago”

(My name had to be changed because USCIS Lockbox messed up my last name on the petition…)

 

So is this normal or is there anything I can do about it?

When USCIS Misspells Your Name:

 

Typographical error form filled on USCIS website 1/4/2021
Contacted USCIS if there has been any progress since THEIR error (Received a Tier 1 tracking number) 2/6/2021
Contacted USCIS again as the issue remains to be resolved (Received ANOTHER Tier 1 tracking number) 3/12/2021
Apparently USCIS chat is worthless; CALLED USCIS, Tier 1 agent promised that a Tier 2 agent would call me 4/28/2021
Received a call from a nice Tier 2 officer who said I may or may not get a correct extension letter, but just in case I would be scheduled an InfoPASS appointment 5/4/2021
Went to local USCIS service center and had to deal with a nasty and entitled customer service agent who refused to give me an I-551 stamp. National Benefits Center is supposed to mail me another I-797 within 7-10 days... So I had to waste my day, taking buses for two hours one-way just to deal with this lady's attitude? 5/7/2021

After anxiously monitoring our mailbox for a few days I DID receive a corrected I-797, w00t! All documents good to go Vaccinated Ready to visit my parents in Europe for the first time in 17 months!!  5/13/2021

The lesson: Don't use the chat for anything complicated, AND keep hassling USCIS for a response...

Someone I know went to the fingerprints in March 2021. They were applied to his account in June 2021.

Look for something to do. Constantly checking USCIS will run you mad.

Immigration journey is not: fast, for the faint at heart, easy, cheap, for the impatient nor right away. If more than 50% of this applies to you, best get off the bus.

USCIS is known for being inconsistent. I feel protocols are there to observe, not enforce. Anyway, the status on our case got updated almost immediately after fingerprinting and was diligently done so all the way through card was delivered to me by the post office. This is not to say there is anything wrong with your case, it may just mean we might have gotten a very good officer.
