hi, I filed my application on the ROC since June 2017. I received the extension letter but I have not been scheduled for my biometric yet, now this is my question,

if by the expiration of the letter of extension my permanent resident card is not been delivered to me, can I go ahead and file for my citizenship in view of this or what happens while my application is still in process and my letter of extension expires.

You can apply for citizenship as soon as your 90-day window opens even if your ROC has not been processed yet. If your extension expires before your ROC is processed, you can make an InfoPass appointment at your local USCIS office.

 

Also, you might want to call USCIS regarding the status of your biometrics appointment because it seems to me that 6 months is a long time to wait just for biometrics scheduling. When my husband applied for his ROC, his biometrics letter came in a month or less.

I also filed that same month. I got my biometric letter, but I know many of the people who filed in July last year didn't receive it that fast. Some of them are still waiting. There is a topic for ROC July 2017 filers. You can find it here:

Sorry I reread your comment. This is for June:

I would also like to call more attention to not receiving a biometrics appointment in a timely manner (I think this would be a more suitable topic for the thread in order to get that attention). I am a June 2017 filer as well and we have not received our biometris letter. I know one other person in our June thread that has not received one either. Both of us have submitted 2 service requests and all four have come back with the generic "you have been placed in queue for appointment" response. 

Has this happened to people in the past? What was the outcome? What caused the delay?
