Hi all, I have some good news to share with you all. I had my I765 and I131 approved today! To give some context, I filed AOS/I765/I131 in April. In May I requested expedite for my I765 as I had a job offer, but it was denied due to lack of biometrics. 
About a week ago I contacted my congressman's office and requested their assistance in getting my work authorization expedited, despite my denial back in May. Fast forward to today and my I765 and I131 are approved. I did have to supply my job offer letter as proof that I had a pending job.
I have still not been issued a biometrics appointment, so I will be unable to be issued a card until that is done, but it's a huge relief to know its approved. 
I suggest contacting your local congressman/woman for assistance with an expedite request if you have a job offer and want your case approved sooner.

Looks like the March filers are starting to get new biometric appointment letters! At least two people in the March 2020 AOS filers board said they received appointment letters yesterday for early August.

I have no reason for thinking that other than there would be military approved fingerprints on file.  It was kind of a thought of "If I were working there how could I get fingerprint I trust". No clue if they are that coordinated.  

Congrats! Our timelines looks oddly similar, and looking through @ourwildjourney timeline we are exactly the same...
 
I-765 received: 2/21
Original Biometrics: 3/24
 
Do you think calling them helped push it along. Did the text come after you told USCIS what your issue was on the phone or was it before on hold while you were waiting to talk to someone. Maybe calling them and giving them a little push is the way to go.

FYI my status never changed on the USCIS website to "My card was picked up by USPS".  However, I see on USPS informed delivery that my card is on its way and will be delivered on 7/18.

status changed from "card being produced" to "card was produced" last jul13.
 
when i checked the mailbox, the card is in there. woohoo!!!!!
 
now, time for me to hunt some jobs.
 
good luck to you all!

She had biometrics the same day as I did, I got some days ago my noa2 that I am approved but as for her cases it's still''we  received your docs' '. 

How should one be military shortly after moving to the US and applying for AOS? It does not include spouses of military personnel 

Only time I have taken biometrics was on my K1 interview at the US embassy in my home country. Other than that I took them (like everyone) at the boarder when I came to the US. 

My wife was recently able to get hers with this method as well. 

While we are all waiting patiently for our biometrics appointment. I have some good news. My husband was able to get his Driver's license in the state of Florida using the AOS receipts. He doesn't have an SSN. We are adjusting from B2 so he had a temporary DL that was valid for the length of his i 94.   What he took with him to the appointment:
His passport
i 94 (expired)
all receipts (485,130.765,131)
proof of residence (bank statement and lease)
our marriage certificate
My USA passport.

Entering false information on an immigration form is lying.........and that can result in an inadmissibility for misrepresentation.

It is about her, until it gets to the part about "household"

Send paystubs from his old job and the new job he just started. I'm assuming the income from the old job is what he used to file this year's taxes.

I am leaning towards filling out new forms, but keep the stamped non-form evidence. But this is only my gut feeling without having info from you what the stamp says. If it invalidates every single paper that obvs changes my opinion. Does the rejected I-485 have the same stamp as the remaining evidence?
It also seems that your package was incomplete - for I-485 the I-944 (public charge) form is required https://www.uscis.gov/i-944.
Also I-765 and I-131 are free of charge when filing along with I-485 so you might want to consider those as well?

Just got a courtesy letter that we did not submit a I 693. Said that we should bring it to the interview or if an interview is not required we will receive a request for evidence. At least I know they looked at our case.

😀 It’s quite the opposite for us, we’d rather get EAD so my husband can finally start working and we’d rather wait on GC till November...when the marriage is 2 years old and to avoid the whole removal conditions saga and all the stress associated with it.

Good to know that they did! My case being so close to yours hopefully they at the very least look into it.

we are also in Jacksonville. Hoping we will get biometrics appointment once the office reopens.

When were your fingerprints taken?

that's what i said. fingers crossed that the local offices reopen next week

I didn't include the I 695 either since it runs out after a couple months and wanted to wait until the interview. I just hope we get through fast. At least we know they are working on it.

I got the yellow courtesy letter today. I am just praying that the field offices open next week.
