I had the same Q as well. The biometric center is few mins away from my workplace. Is there a specific time to target for walk ins?

It’s a gamble as it depends on the particular ASC office if they’ll allow early walk ins. We were fortunate they allowed it. There’s no harm in trying so go for it. All the best.

For our ASC location they asked that you show up before 2pm. 
 

You can go in tomorrow and ask if they’ll allow for early walk in. There’s no harm in trying. Good luck.

Oh I just noticed you are filing in Houston as well. If your bio is scheduled at 9440 S Texas 6 then you are in luck, just go in before 2pm.

Did you go with your husband ? I saw our notice said my husband has to go alone as they don’t allow anyone else in. Or perhaps that was when Covid was going on.

No, I did not go. … but I believe there’s a waiting area at our location so families can go in and wait.

If you filed G1145 form then you will get text or email alert once they process it. If not, then you can look out for charges on your credit card activities, usually when they charge the card is when they accepted the application. Within a few days to a week you should be getting an alert but soon after you’ll get NOA in the mail. Hope this helps!

Thank you for sharing this info! I filed my G1145 form to receive text and email updates. I noticed they charged my credit card immediately after they received my file last week but I haven’t received any email or text of NOA yet. I’m hoping they will send NOA very soon.
