How did it go? Quick and easy? 

Hi!  You beat me to it.  Lol 

 

So I think we may be the first of the January 2022 filers to do the biometrics appointment. Maybe?  I don't know.  But YES, it was quick and easy!  Our appointment was at 1pm today, and we were a Code 3.  The office in West Sac was very easy to find; lots of parking.  We saw several people going into the building, but my husband said it was very quiet inside.  Not busy at all.  He got called up right away.  He had to fill out a basic form, show his 2-year green card, took a couple photos, and then fingerprints.  The lady had to the fingerprints a couple of times, because maybe his fingers were a little sweaty (who knows - definitely no nail polish remover though).  My husband was in and out the door in about 10 minutes. He didn't have to show his drivers license or passport.

 

Good luck to you next week!

Our package was delivered on 31st jan, it is 8th today and no text ( we filled g1145) and check hasn't been deposited yet? Is it normal,  green card expires on 15 march

Ours was also delivered on the 31st and still no text/email. Not sure if it's normal, but my paranoid self is freaking out. Green card expires Feb 27 😔

Don't worry you both are in there sometimes it takes longer than other folks don't be alarmed.  I suspect it'll  be this week. Btw the notifications can come at anytime even midnight.

Thanks!  We're pretty happy with how speedy things are moving along, but I suppose now, we're in for a long wait for the interview.

Yes that would be a good assessment! But you never know.

Ah okay. Sounds like a simple process without too much stress. Thanks again for the information. My sister in law lives in Melbourne! Hopefully we can visit Australia soon.

Uscis just cashed the check! But I can’t tell if it’s the original application which i mailed on the 24th (and was lost by ups and tracking number still says information not available) or the one i just mailed today (did overnight shipping with usps with eta of 2/9 6pm) 

 

I’m assuming it’s the first one..hoping I don’t get charged twice though

it's got to be the first one I would think. your second application's not supposed to be delivered till today by 6:00 p.m. so it's not even there yet.

Yes i think so too. A little annoyed because that was the one ups had lost and i had to open an investigation so didn’t expect for it to be received and I mailed a new application today.

 

but i included (first page) a letter explaining that is a duplicate application due to the first one being lost by ups and that if the first one is received, then to disregard the second one and not process the payment so i hope that’s the case

[Todd55 37]

Yes hopefully they will read that letter and disregard the second application and all will be well.  

 

I feel for you. that has to be annoying that you send that second packet and they cash the check from the first one on that same day.

 

The most important thing is that they have it now though.  that has to be a big worry off of your mind now.

Did the case status change on the USCIS Case status page when receiving this or does yours still stay "My case was received"
