Hi Everyone,

 

2021.05.27 - Case Received by USCIS - Last and only case history update.

2021.08.21 - Biometrics Appointment Notice Date

2021.09.17 - Biometrics Appointment Date - Completed

 

Since then there was absolutely no updates to my case status - 33 days so far.

 

Any action I need to take? Is this unusual?

 

Thanks!

It is not unusual.   After biometrics the IO/ Field office has to review the file and schedule the interview.

Thanks for the reply. I'm asking because I saw multiple people say that at the same day or a few days after the Biometrics appointment the case status got updated with something like "Biometrics Taken".

 

Attached is how my case history looks.

I was also earlier asking the very same question because I was freaking out about lack of status updates.

 

My (rescheduled) biometrics took place in August, and little over a couple of months later the case status was updated with Ready to Be Scheduled, and now Interview Scheduled. Still waiting to receive a letter by mail for these, though.

Getting there, slowly but surely...  (I hope )

 

Together (well...mostly the Transatlanticism kind of together) Since 12/2013

 

CR-1:

 

Married in Sweden 8/2017
(Well Frontloaded) I-130 Sent 12/2017
CR-1 Approved 10/2018
POE LAX 01/11/2019

 

I-751:

 

I-751 Package Sent with UPS 11/11/2020
I-751 Received by the AZ Lockbox 11/13/2020
I-751 Check Cashed 12/31/2020
I-797 (with My Last Name Misspelled...) Received by Mail 1/2/2021

Biometrics Appointment Received by Mail...too bad I am in Europe right when it's supposed to take place 🤯 6/14/2021

Rescheduled Biometrics Appointment, the biometric technician can't change the misspelled name on file, but he enters the correct spelling of my last name as an alias 8/2/2021

Interview Ready to Be Scheduled 10/13/2021

(Two Days Later) Interview Was Scheduled 😱 10/15/2021

I-751 Interview, Petition Approved 🥳 11/19/2021

Case Status Changed to New Card Is Being Produced 11/19/2021

Case Status Changed to Case Was Approved 11/22/2021

Green Card Arrived in the Mail (Name Correctly Spelling, w00t) 11/27/2021

 

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...

I am wondering if you get the same status if you go to Case Status Online:

 

https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do

 

I remember during AOS for my wife, Case Status Online was always more up-to-date than myUSCIS.

Yes, I always check both but they are showing the same status. Thank you!

That's good news! Thanks for sharing your timeline.

Too early to worry about. I know people that have waited for 6 months and more without  any Biometrics Taken update . Sometimes they just don't update the online portal. It is very Normal especially of recent.

I always had more luck using this exact status tool from USCIS:

 

https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/displayLogon.do

 

Its an official USCIS web tool, has email & sms notifications too (although I have activated both; have received none) It needs USCIS account; & it always have history/timeline of statuses. Note that sometimes after you login, the URL changes. If that, after login, click this URL again.
