NOA arrived today

Did you get your biometrics appointment in a separate letter? I am in Chicago and only got the 4 NOAs (130,131,485 and 765) with 485 and 765 instructing that Biometrics would be next, and that I would receive an appointment letter indicating date, place, time, and documents to bring.

I have inspected the I-130 (my husband's form) and my name is listed without the initial of the middle name. Should I call (though I know is next to impossible to find a human operator) to check?

I received a bunch of letters in the mail today - the NOA's (all separate) and the biometrics appointment, which was in a separate letter. I'm not sure if it was just coincidence that they all happened to arrive on the same day or not. It's only been one business day or so since you got your NOAs, maybe the biometrics appointment is on it's way? If it were me, I'd give it another couple of days to see if it has arrived, and then if it didn't show up I'd call. But that's just me.

I see we're on a very similar time schedule, so it could be interesting :) I saw you had received your NOAs and so was expecting them today and they did not disappoint.

Looking around, it seems the bio appointment letter gets in about 16-20 days from application. Should be here soon. This is only day 13, right? You're ahead already:) What DO sent your NOAs? I expected it to be CHI, but the forms and envelopes have a MO address.

I should stop freaking out, right?:D

I looked for the DO on my forms and couldn't find anything. My envelopes also had a MO address on them.

Maybe I got lucky with the biometrics appointment! I was surprised they booked me so quickly, it's only two weeks away.

And yes you should stop freaking out :) It's a good sign that you got the NOAs and they did say that the appointment is on it's way, right? ;)

But yes this is a bit nerve wracking. I checked and double checked and triple checked everything before I sent it off but I'm scared that I forgot something!! I really want my AP to be approved by March - I wonder if an RFE would hold it up?

Also, my receipt number isn't working on the USCIS website yet, so I assume that will take some time as well. This is a waiting game and we must be patient!
 
Oh no! It's all about karma isn't it? I do suppose I will have to pay down the line. Things are going too smoothly!
 
My husband applied for citizenship this year, and after the biometrics appointment letter we could not check online his status either, always it had a validation error. A glitch probably in their system.

Oh I haven't been checking very often... did a few days ago and it wasn't there. Let me see...

Nope, not yet. But you're about a week ahead of me. I also read somewhere that it shows up after you have your FP done and I go for mine tomorrow.
