Mistakes made by USCIS delaying AOS process

[Scout & Paws 0]

Dear all,

Today we had our AOS interview with my wife as my petitioner. But when we arrived there was immediately a problem, it turns out that when I went for biometrics, the government monkey forgot to scan BOTH the barcode for AOS and the barcode for the EAD. Turns out a name check was not completed and now I need to redo the biometrics and have the system scan me into the AOS system when I do it.

So, we filed everything exactly as we were supposed to, made no errors. Yet sometimes you just can't win against inefficient beaurocratic systems.

The officer proceeded with the interview anyway and I think signed us off on that. Problem is, I now have to wait 3 weeks for biometrics 2nd attempt, and then god knows how long before name check completes and I get approval through the post.

Furious right now as have a family emergency but cannot leave country to take care of it...

If anyone has had a similar experience please let me know what happened!

Cheers,

B&L

i'm sorry to hear about how badly they have dealt with you. i'm pretty sure if you go to the office you can request emergency advance parole which might take a couple of days.

You have every right to be furious, i understand how you feel in case you have an emergency and you cant leave.. ................ how can these monkeys forget these simple things things, they are doing for years. There shd be a serious grevance cell where the monkey can be tracked down and whipped. ............. now i am afraid what did they do with mine ...... hope everthhing is fine there......... my prayers with you ........ just hang in there with some patience.

Thanks for your reply - we asked the officer about filing for an AP and he strongly advised against it even in situations like this. Said there is a 9/10 chance the AOS would fail if we did...

Thanks again

I assume my husband's biometrics were done correctly. However, at our interview earlier this month, we were not given a decision cos we are what? ON F-ING BACKGROUND CHECKS AGAIN.

Im sorry you are going through this #######. Im afraid we are all at their mercy, like it or not.

I know at our local office, you can do your bio early if you have the appointment letter in hand. For example, my bio appointment was on Feb 18th, I did it on Feb 10th. Maybe you can try the same thing?

YOU CAN EXPEDITE YOUR AP AND THEY APPROVE LESS THEN 3 DAYS, AND ALTHOUGH THEY SCHEDULE A DATE FOR BIOMETRIC APPOINTMENT YOU CAN WALK-IN AND STILL HAVE U BIOMETRICS COMPLETED EARLY!

We also did a drop in for our biometrics several weeks ahead of the scheduled date. Just needed the appointment letter and ID and it was no problem at all. In and out in 10 minutes. Good Luck!
