We are still waiting with nothing whatsoever happening. It's so very frustrating to see people who've applied WEEKS after us get theirs so fast, without expediting. Very annoying. But I suppose I should be used to this... we filed Feb 1 for K1, and a boatload of people had their NOA2's long before us also. August 2nd might as well have been Sept 2, with as slowly as this is going. Booooooooooo. :ranting:

That said, I AM truly happy for those of you who are progressing and have your EAD/AP and interview appointments. We'll cheer for you every step of the way. :)

@Tina and Johan. I think ours and others who have the same BIO dates will be processed by the end of next week. I noticed when the AOS package was accepted it took almost 2 weeks for them to update or send the NOA. (actual delay). So what I am thinking If your Bio was completed on the week sept 8-12, approval should be next week. 2 Weeks delay from the 30 day mark of the Biometrics. There are a few others I am following with the same Bio's that haven't gotten their appointments or EAD..

btw, Nebraska Service Center (so slow!!!)

Hi everybody.

My hubby and I sent the papers in August. The papers got to the Nebraska Center on August 13th. Then, I got a letter for the Bio so I went to take the fingerprints on Sept 11th in Boston. I havent received anything else, no updates from the website either. Sadly, we didnt send the file to have updates in the cellphone or email so sometimes I get confused related to what NOA/AP, etc mean. Also, do i have to call immigration after 75 days of sending the papers to immigration and not receiving any answer after the fingerprints? What should I ask about? I am sorry if I have too many questions, but I am getting frustrated. Hope somebody can help me! Thanks in advance!

It's ok. Call after 75 days of when they received your documents. And then just ask for a service request. I'll be calling Monday as today is only 74 days. They received my docs on 8/4.

Ha ha. My congressman basically told me to call USCIS to request an expedite as he can't do it on my behalf. Gotta love TX republicans.. granted his stance on immigration is "close the borders". Should have seen this coming.

Lucky 75 days hits soon.
