You're not alone. It's been 6 months for me as well and no news/update about biometric.

[Waiting for gc 4]

Hello everyone, so finally i can see the case on the case tracker , and i can see there update saying 

On May 8, 2019, your Fingerprints/Biometrics, referral number T1M1271***278ELP, was assigned to an officer for response.

 

But ! This update came 2 days later 

 

 

As of May 10, 2019, your Fingerprints/Biometrics, referral number T1M1271***278ELP, is currently not assigned for processing.

 

is it making any sense? I plan on going back home for few months , but can’t do that yet as I don’t know if I should receive biometrics app . 

Also as anyone received Biometric app waiver?

You didn't go to a scheduled biometrics appointment for I-751, right? If not, then those status updates sound like they were checking whether you need to do biometrics for I-751. If they have current biometrics for you, then I don't think everyone is required to get new ones just for the I-751. What they consider current means that they were done within, I think, the last 2 years. That does mean that many people will need new ones during I-751.

 

If I were you, I would not plan on going anywhere for the moment. I don't think there is a way to get a biometrics waiver. Do you have the extension letter?

 

My wife's status says they have completed the review of fingerprints and are now working on the Form I-751 (and she did have to go get new biometrics done). I would check status again in a few days or in a week to see if it gets updated to say whether you need biometrics or not.

 

Please be careful about leaving until you know for sure.

Great! That's what my wife's status now says after doing biometrics. So it sounds to me like they checked whether you need new biometrics and have found that you do not need new ones. Excellent.

Hi,

Is there anyone from LIN center that hasn't received their biometric appointment? I requested a lost receipt and on May 1 someone replied that they have sent another notice to me, but I haven't received any.

My status online still saying "your case was received" and I already got my extension letter.

Thank you.

If it was me I would just wait. You can receive a bio appointment at any point between them receiving your case and finally picking up your case to process it a year later. Bio isn't important in that regard, it doesn't have to be done at a certain time. If they need it, they will ask you for it. 

 

If you have changed address since you moved to the US you can call USCIS once a month or so just to check if they have sent you something that you haven't received. They are very bad at updating people's addresses and you don't want to miss out on anything.

I'm too desperate, I sent an e-request today regarding biometric. The email says I should get the reply by June 6th.

They will probably respond to you like 

1) They are experiencing longer processing time

2) Your name is electronically added to appointment if needed

3) Some will use their previous biometrics if needed, and therefore no need to be scheduled. 

 

I believe USCIS started to use previous biometrics if deemed not required (such as I 751 or I131 when bio is not highly important in determinant factors) to reduce backlog and refresh the officers to reviewing or interviewing applicants.
