Hi! I don't think so. Some started as K1 or fiance visa, went to AOS hence they have their biometrics reused unlike us who came in via CR1. But I believe after AOS they switch to CR1? Not really sure. But what I know is most that hace their biometrics reused have had them taken in when they did AOS. 😊
 
Thank you!

Enjoy your time in France 🇫🇷! And,I wouldn't bet on visa journey timeline estimate- I only look at at the uscis timeline for my field office😉much different!

Well, well, I'm just 4 days earlier! LOL! Are you in France now? 

Welcome to the thread! 😊

Yes until mid-August.

Hello All, 
I guess you guys receive emails from VJ giving "Your latest I-751 approval estimate!"

Jeeeeeeze, that's in 2 years. 
 
What about you ? 
 

TGIF!!! I got the update on my case last night midnight! Fingerprints were taken as of 6/30/2022, the waived my Biometrics and used my previous ones! Yay!! You guys were right!

Thank you!
Seems like CR1s are a bit faster than K1s when you look at the VJ timelines. I hope you hear something soon! 😊

Just want to update here that I had my biometrics appointment earlier and my case now shows "Case was updated to fingerprints were taken." 😊

Hello All
That was my concern too... my husband yesterday was like, "why did you call USCIS? Now the appointment is cancelled! We can't walk in" etc. 
 
But we went anyway and it went super well (Benefits Center at Oxnard, in California). We showed up at 8am. The security guard, after listening to my problem, asked us to talk to a lady (who was in fact the boss of the center). Super nice and warm. She said "we will take care of you in 30minutes". 
After 20 minutes she called me and another super nice lady took care of me. We did the finger prints and that was it. They stamped the NOA (Biometrics appointment letter) and gave it back to me. It took 10 minutes, so we were back on the road at 8:35am. 
 
Voilà!  A big relief. 

Can you still walk in if you said they cancelled it already? And wow! I think a 30 minute wait is good enough for USCIS! Good luck! Keep us posted! 😊

CF: BIOMETRICS APPOINTMENT - rescheduling
 
So I am leaving the US on June 20th for 6 weeks (to visit my family). 
My biometrics appointment is supposed to be on Jun 30th. 😱
 
I just called USCIS (1 800 375 5283). Asked for an operator right away. Waited half an hour. 
A nice lady took my case. Check my identity (alien number, application number, names, dob, address,  phone, email)
She said : walk ins are not allowed (but we know most centers allow them...).
I explained my case. She cancelled my appointment. 
Told me that an agent is going to call me within 72H. She gave me the phone number the agent would be calling me from. 
And gave me a Request case number. 
 
I told her that I was coming back August 10th, and asked if it was possible to put a note on my case about that so that they would not reschedule like say early August (when I am not back yet), but they cannot put a note. 
 
I will try a walk in tomorrow. Or Wednesday since it is supposed to be the best day for it. 
And will keep you posted
 

That's what I thought,too.the " old" gc plus letter should be enough. And,visajourney updates estimated approval times: mine went yesterday up from March to June next year.soooooo,maybe really nothing to worry about the speed it's going 😉

I asked here on VJ and a couple of people have said that the 2 yr gc and letter should still be able to let me into the US. But I should be ready for a longer time at secondary. 😐 Now I'm praying it doesn't go as fast. Lol

Hmmm....well,it is going fast so far,and I really don't want to discourage anyone, but I think it is unlikely, that anyone is going to get the 10 year gc within the next 3-5 months  . But,your idea of having someone send you the gc if it gets here while you're abroad, is good.

I agree with @Mike E.  You can use you extension letter and expired GC.  Good luck. 

Hi! So it did fall on a day you were away. I also got my bio appointment let34bt5er today. Scheduled for 6/28! 
 
Good luck on the walk in! 😊
