Does early biometrics help expedite the AOS process?

[hellomms 16]

I have seen a lot of people here doing early/walk-in biometrics. I personally am a very impatient person (and acknowledge I am being tested now) and would like to get things done early if I can but curious if early biometrics actually help expedite the EAD/AP or the interview process or do people just like to get them out of the way.

Any thoughts?

I've seen a lot of people do early biometrics and it doesn't do anything to expedite the EAD. The average time to get EAD is about 2 to 3 months, but more like 2. I understand being impatient about it. I was too. Good luck

Doing it early just means they dont have your files yet and they wait to get your files and attach the Biometrics to it when they get it.

We did the early walk in. EAD and AP were approved within 2 months of filing for AOS. I say it helped.

I think it helps. Your case is on hold until you do it. I know someone who was approved in 37 days and she did walk-in biometrics... i personally think she wouldn't have been approved so quickly if she hadn't.
