according the case I found, from ready to schedule to scheduled took around 1~2 months

but from fingerprints to ready to schedule still a mystery 

 


Parsha,

 

Wonderful job like always.

 

I have some qs and a serious recommendation for you.

1st my recommendation

 

Go to USCIS head quarter and present your analysis , I bet they will love you for your dedication and well organized file and listings.

 

so now my qs. 

those you said took 1 to 2 month to get interview , where were the local office? and after they got their interview date, how far away was that date? do you have access to those type of info ?

ha, thank you for the comment, I wonder if USCIS actually care about it, hahaha

 

all I can see is the status change, the website did not provide further information about location, so for that part, we need everyone's contribution!

Yes.  This only means they have accepted the I-751 for further review.

We filed early March.  Did biometrics on April 20 ( if I remember correctly.  It's in my timeline). It changed a few weeks ago to ready to be scheduled for interview.  Just changed over the last few days to has been scheduled for interview.
