Kim & Gesner, we're in the same boat. Appt letter recd, still no hard copies of NOA1s?? We are going to attempt a walk in biometrics as well, but it appears Sacramento doesnt seem friendly to them. No harm trying right?

We went to Sacramento (well, technically West Sacramento), but didn't try a walk in. I've heard that some people have had success with walk-ins there. I can tell you this, it's not a busy office at all.

I sure do hope they allow us to walk in. I would really hate to miss my conference, but the biometrics is honestly more important. I have been watching your threads as we will of course interview in Sacramento as well and it helps to read others experiences.. I am excited and nervous all in one, and I am the USC. I think my hubby just listens and keeps in his nerves.. Haha

epsonderby - it took 11 days for us to get our text/emails from the day USCIS received our packet so hang in there, yours is coming soon!!!

A good point. I'm just a little nervous and am likely to be so right up until after the AOS interview. I just tend to overthink things a little!

11/29/12 - AOS Interview in Atlanta - 10 minutes long and approved on the spot.

I'm really feeling stressed about it all. I can't seem to switch off. I know as soon as I receive my texts/emails, I'll start worrying about something else.

Hopefully we can all get adjudicated by the end of the year!

Your case is moving along nicely!! I just got our biometrics appt letter on friday and going to attempt to do an early walk in on Tuesday. We are also waiting on the hard copies of the NOA1's, hopefully they come soon! I am not sure if doing an early walk in helps the process or not but I guess it can't hurt!

Good luck with your walk-in!! The office I went did not give me a problem, I was actually the only one there. I am also not sure if it helps or not but if it does that's great! I was just eager to get it out the way.
