I don't know the answer, but where is 14 not a "minor?"

Oh, sorry. I meant to say that he’s 14 now and he’s not exempted from having his fingerprints taken anymore. Sorry for the confusion. 

My son was 13 years old when we filed for an i-485 and i-765. My two daughters and I received our biometrics appointment but my son didn’t. I thought it was normal because he’s a minor and he probably doesn’t require fingerprinting. However, I received a notice of approval for my son’s EAD case yesterday. I checked his online case status but it still says “Case was received.” I’m more than confused about this. Also, my two daughters and I already received our EAD while my son hasn’t. I only received a notice of approval for his case. 

He’s now 14 years old. He’s not a minor anymore so how will this work? He did not get his photo taken by the USCIS as well. I called USCIS today and they said that they see NO UPDATES in my son’s case. If they have no updates, WHY DID I RECEIVE A NOTICE OF APPROVAL? What about his green card? What’s going to happen if he never had his photo and fingerprints taken? I’m really worried about his case. Has anybody had the same experience?

My daughter's k2 visa came exactly 2 weeks after mine , her status remained on ready and the processed date changed several times . It never went to issued . I had the Visa in my hand exactly 2 weeks after mine.

That makes me feel better. Thank you

What you are experiencing is normal. The same thing happened with my K-2's. Relax while you wait. Focus on what needs to be done so you and your children are ready to travel. DO NOT buy airline tickets till you have all visa's in your hands and you have reviewed them for correctness.

Thank you for the advice

Thanks.

Everything seems to be in normal timelines. Monday was a holiday, so the 7-10 working days was pretty close. As noted, every case goes through AP...it's a necessary part of the process before they issue the visa.

Thank you!

Sorry about that. I won't do it again

Thank you for your answer. I'm just really frustrated about the process

Our interview was last September 27. Our visa was approved and the consulate congratulated my children and I. She said we'd have to wait 7-10 working days for our visa. She did not tell me anything about additional papers needed to be passed to her. Last week, my case status was "Issued" while my kids' were still "Ready." Last Tuesday, their K2 case status turned into "administrative processing." I read somewhere that they would contact me if they need additional papers but I haven't heard from them yet! Please help! I'm very frustated.

How long has it been since the interview? Every case goes through AP, and they cannot issue theirs until yours is issued. So it may be a bit longer to process their cases...nothing unusual (on face value).

Our interview was last September, 27. Mine has been issued since last week. Also, my children's case were "ready" last week. Then last Tuesday, theirs turned to "administrative processing."

Please help. I'm very frustrated. The details said that we should check the letter that was given to us but there was no letter given in the interview. The consulate even congratulated my kids and I. She also said that we have to wait for 7-10 working days for our visa. I checked our visa status online and it said that my visa has been issued but my kids' visas are under "administrative processing."
