Texas filer here (case sent October 29, fingerprint fee accepted Nov 6, SRC 199XXXXXXX)

Today (October 19) I received a biometrics letter from USCIS asking to do biometrics on October 30.

 

This is interesting, because back in January 2019 I got a notice that my biometrics will be reused, and my status changed to "Fingerprint review completed". My case status did not change, nor did I get any electronic notification about this. Also, in case tracker, my status is still "Fingerprint fee received".

Same here. I just saw that I got the letter yesterday and my date is 10/29. Since I'm off tomorrow, I'm going to try and go see if I can get that done (other people have gone before their appointment). I really hope that this means that they are working on all these cases and we'll see approvals soon!!

@prok - I have seen this happen to LIN filers in this thread where their biometrics was reused, but then they had to do biometrics again. I hope this means they are moving on with the case!

 

@lolita88 - Oh thanks for letting me know that one can get biometrics ahead of time! Please let us know if you succeed at getting it tomorrow! I think we are in the same field office and I know our office doesn’t allow walk-ins anymore, but it would be great to get it done this week and not wait!

Wow, Thank you for your message! I did not think to check and you are right about the ATL office. I´ll probably call in the morning, but I will make arrangements with my job to go next Tuesday. Do you know how long it may take to get through the process?

Also, I found this post and it has a "not very nice" review of the ATL office down in the comments... Guess it's good to go knowing what to expect! 😕 https://mypathtocitizenship.com/can-i-do-an-early-walk-in-for-my-biometrics-appointment-instead-of-waiting/

I feel like we might be in the same situation somewhat.  I'm signed up for USPS Informed Delivery and I can see that we're receiving a letter from the TSC today.

 

Case status on USCIS's website says: "As of May 25, 2019, we completed our review of your fingerprints and are working on your Form I-751"

Case status on the My USCIS website says: "You do not need to do anything at this time"

Tracker app says: "fingerprint review was completed"

 

My wife also received a notice that they would reuse her fingerprints and that there was no need for a biometrics appointment.  It's nice to see progress actually happening but it's kind of a bummer to be told that it was a mistake now.

Where can I find the google spreadsheet that gives an idea of the processing time based on other members cases for the Nebraska center?

The Vermont filers that got approved could you go change the chart so it's easier for people to see the statistics?

Please update the spreadsheet as well.

 

Thanks!

It's a bummer how a lot of people never fill in their dates. 😕 I'm sure we can get more accurate estimations if they did.

Yup - it was a notice for biometrics.  My wife has an appointment on October 31st now at 2:00 PM.  Kinda' sucks because she's a teacher and it's a little difficult for her to get a substitute but thankfully she'll only miss two classes.

Did you try calling them?

 

I agree with the comment about the ATL office you shared. I had to go in there and get a passport stamp there last year- my experience was that they are indeed quite rude and unpleasant to talk to, and they seem to enjoy their power. That was part of the reason I was anxious about trying to do an early walk-in.

 

I don’t know how long it may take to hear back after biometrics. Seems like LIN filers heard back within 1-3 months, but SRC is so much slower.

According to case tracker, another SRC , Texas Service Center filer was approved yesterday 10/21/2019. It shows Texas are working, like I said in previous post, you can only see the progress in cases in case tracker, you can’t actually know when it was filed and all the circumstances. Lets still hope for the best anyway, last action on my case was 320 days ago. Really serious!!!

Congratulations again!

I just saw we exchanged messages last week. Uscis received my RFE on October 5th and your said they received yours October 9th. Both were Nebraska Center. Wish there was some consistency and they would review files in the order they were received. Happy for you. Pray for us others too that we get our approval soon too!

 

What case tracker did you use if I may ask?
