We just recieved my husband's Biometric's appointment letter for 8/21/08. Does this mean we won't have to re-interview? How long after biometrics is the 10 year green card received?

Thanks in advance!

Biometrics is only a procedure during I-751 (same as the I-485 they took your fingerprints and the picture...so tell your hubby that be pretty! :) ) has no link with interviews or not. You can get call for an interview randomly...

Since you filed in TSC...which means that your file is in VSC, is looking around a year or so. Check the timeline at VSC filers, finally is moving though right now is on Sep07's.

Good luck.

Sorry, biometrics doesn't mean no interview. Biometrics is the first thing they do each step of the way. They'll do it again when you apply for citizenship.

If I remember right, my wife had her biometrics in October, and we got her 10 year card right after Christmas. We did not have an interview. We went through VSC back in '06.

Now that you have the biometrics letter get set up for email notification. The number on this letter is your new case file number. You might try going early for the biometrics appointment, especially if they have slow days.

If you are set up on email notification then you should see a touch after the biometrics is completed. After that plan on sitting back and waiting. You are in for quite a slow process. But then, this is the USCIS so what did you expect.
