August 2020 - AOS Filers

[Super Heros 12]

Finally our status was updated to fingerprints taken (form 765 work authorization) My husband came to US on a K1 visa, so I wasn’t sure if they would use the fingerprints for the K1 or if he was required to go to a biometric appointment for his work permit. Now I know

I have had so much going on that I haven't had time to finish up the I-944 RFIE but I am basically done now and should have them both ready to be sent back by the end of this week. Paperwork is tiring lol.

I'm so jealous that so many of you got biometrics already. Still waiting here and I'm moving this week so that will probably delay it even more

Hi all,

 

I wanted to post about my experience trying to go early for a biometrics appointment at the Atlanta Center. 

 

I was *not* successful. 

 

I had an appointment set for later in Dec, and informed them I would be out of town so please can I do biometrics today. 

 

I don’t know if early walk ins were possible for Atlanta biometrics before, but it seems with covid there is no chance. Especially as the biometrics letter came with an additional covid letter, that specifically said “only show up on your scheduled date and time”. 

 

The security guy I spoke to did at least tell me that if I’m out of town on the date of my biometrics, I can go to the nearest service center on the date and time of my appointment. 

 

Another VJ user with a similar timeline to mine also tried to do early walk in today and was given the same response. 

 

Sorry I couldn’t bring better news! Best of luck with your immigration journeys 🙂

That's  to bad before the pandemic people used to routinely do it.

so the the total time from her first bio appointment to EAD in your hands was like 2 months?

Her first bio for I-765 was Oct. 30, so that's like a month and 2 weeks.

Ok I see. I submitted our tax docs but we file jointly as well so not sure how that will play out. No updates yet on my end.

Any updates on your end? If I'm not mistaking, we are both DACA filers right?

Hi it looks like I joined the biometrics club. 8/20 PD however it is just for the I-765 which I am very happy for. I wish my I-485 was included. Has anyone had this experience? 

Congrats! I’m also waiting - New York filer too. Hopefully I’ll get something soon as well. May I ask, did you escalate with a tier 2?
