Hi, for those of you who have already been through that stage of the Removal of Conditions process, how long of a gap did you have between the date you received your NOA1 and biometrics appointment letter? We got our NOA1 on 10/27 and have not heard anything since.

I've spoken to two friends (both VSC, both in Newark NJ district office area) who went through the same process recently and got both letters within a week or less of each other.

Should I be worried? I sent my application to Vermont on October 15th and received the NOA letter October 23rd........... and still no biometrics. Is there anyway I can call the service center and check if it has been sent out? I called 1 800 375 5283 number (the one given on NOA letter), but it's an automated system, and there doesn't seem to be anyway to talk to a live operator.

Any advice is deeply appreciated!

Filed I-751 in Vermont... October 15th 07

I-751 NOA ...October 23rd 07

Bio letter.....March 11th 08
