On another note, our cases still aren't online and it's driving me crazy. I want to be able to track them. <_<

I guess cases won't be put in the online database until around the time of the biometrics appointment... We'll see.

I hope so. Our biometrics appt is tomorrow and I hope it will help jumpstart CRIS with putting our cases online.

Your packet will be broken apart and only the EAD and AP will remain at the National Benefits Centre and the AOS will be transferred to either California or to your local office.

GeoStefan - If its just you filing, the fee is $1010, and biometrics (fingerprints) are included in that amount.

You can find all the answers to your questions here, including the address to mail your application and number of passport photos needed:

http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=307

The guides are very helpful and easy to follow. I'd read through the guides first, and ask necessary questions afterwards.
