Tried to do early fingerprinting yesterday (9/9) but reached the USCIS office only around 3:10pm - the lady asked me to come back next week since they were short-staffed and I arrived late in the day! Will try to get the FP done on Monday.

Tried to get the FP done on Monday (9/12) but there was a long line to enter the office and I didn't have too much time. Finally got it done today (9/15) - took about 15 minutes - the agent was super helpful and cheerful. Hope that my interview gets scheduled before 10/31 as I'm planning on a 3-week overseas trip starting around then!

Navz and Hudsonvalley - glad to see that your FP emails were received!
 
Received "Interview scheduled" email/text today

Quick update: Received an "Interview scheduled" email/text today indicating that I should be receiving an interview letter within the next 14 days.

Received my FP letter. Appointment on 10/13. Also, is there any downside to going for an early FP appointment?


How about you Hudson Valley, did you receive the letter in the mail yet?

Email Received Regarding Interview

I am surprised to see that today we have received email notification for my wife that they have scheduled interview for her and interview letter is on the way..It is surprised because, our district office is Washington,DC(which is very slow) ,her case was filed on 08/22..She did her finger printing on 09/14.I have filed the application on 08/08 and did finger print on 08/31..My status is still same "interview schedule queue".Does it mean Washington, DC district started initiative to reduce backlog?Any one has similar experiences?
 
Today my wife received her interview letter.Interview scheduled for 11/01/2011 in Fairfax,VA.
 
I have my interview tomorrow at 10:50 at the Tampa field office. I have to say I am very surprised how fast the process has moved along.

Hey imhopeful,
I see we have the same field office. What was your experience on the early FP? You just walk in the door and ask to be fingerprinted? How long did it take? I just received my appt. today for 11/3 and considering having them done early if possible.


Thanks and good luck in your interview!

Hey X3-T ... I only got 3rd time lucky with my attempts to do an early walk-in FP as mentioned previously. Yes, I told them that I was going to be out-of-town on the day of the original FP appointment (I had a copy of my flight tickets to prove it) and told them that I needed to get fingerprinted - the first time, I arrived after the 3pm cut-off and they asked me to come back the following week, the 2nd time there was a long line so I didn't even try and the 3rd time, they got me in and took care of my biometrics.

Good luck with the rest of your process! I'm sorry for the delayed response - I've been getting ready for my interview which is this Tuesday, 10/25! Will provide an update after I'm done with the interview.
 
Congrats!
