To those of you who already did their Biometrics i have a few questions:

1. Do you need an excuse in order to do walk-in biometrics?
2. Do they frown upon walk-ins?
3. Best time to go in and get them done as far as people have experienced?

Thanks!

Cada,

It probably depends on the location and even the people working that day. For me (and most people) there was no issue or even questions. You just said that you would like to speed it up because -------- (for ex: my case was delayed and I'm trying to recoup the time... whatever). Don't go there thinking this is big deal because it really isn't. I don't think they care (unless you make them care).

Best timing may also be dependent on the location...I went around 3 I think... and it was almost empty. I've been there before and usually in the morning there is more people.

Hope this helps. Let us know how you did!
 
Good Morning Friends - Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss sss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was wonderful that's all I can say. My interview was at 7:20 am, the IO came called my name at 7:10 am. Looked at me and said okay please wait. While everyone else was going in and out I waited till he called my name from the back door entrance and not from the front entrance where everyone else was going in and out. That was a bad sign, he asked for my petitioner and I pointed him towards my sister. He asked me to ask her to join us. Then he asked me if my attorney was here (another scary sign) and I replied no. He took us from the back way to his office. Went through all the documents, asked a few questions from the I-485 and then printed a welcome letter. It took forty minutes, from 8:00 am till 8:40 am. He mentioned that they don't stamp the passports any more with the temporary GC's and that if I need it, I need to make an infopass appointment.

I am so thankful to the Lord and you guys for all your support and prayers.

Citi good luck to you my friend!! I will say a prayer for you tonight.

On a better note, I got my Biometrics Appt!!!! Myself and four other family members that also filled consecutively under the same 245i case. Im going to try and set a date for walk-in biometrics. How long does it usually take after biometrics are done for the EAD to be produced?? Ive been looking at some timelines but they are mostly for marriage based statuses, anyone with a family based petition have any estimates?.

Immiqrous: Dont loose hope, Out of everyone here i think we both connected on the fact that the Biometrics were taking us so long, and I am sure something will come up. I will be praying for you.

Its amazing how little news like these can keep us going for days.

Thanks for the words of encouragement Cada, Im beginning to be hopeful now that they have reached the NY area its been 89 days for me today so i will be on the lookout soon. I will keep you posted.
This whole process began as a real high , but the wait has made it so low and depressing hopefully i will feel like you soon as you said its the little news that keeps us going for days.
Wonder if Jaykat got biometrics as yet or am I really the only one let standing.
But on a better note congrats and I am truly happy for you and everyone else that has moved up in the process - I'll just wait for my Iphone 4 tomorrow to give me some upliftment .
:cool:

Thank You. Its actually 12/21/2000 proofs. I had my 2000 income tax, 1099 statement for interest earned from my bank accounts and also a 4th quarter 401k earnings statement. He looked at them and kept them for his file.
 
Citi, congratulations my friend im very glad all of this went well. The petitioner always has to be present at the time of interview?.

Immiqrous: Keep your head up high, day 91 for me so, i guess the New Yorkers are around that area.

PS. Maybe the iphone has a USCIS "Check your status" app. haha :)
 
cada, not being a ball buster or anything, as I had to take algebra II 3 times when I was in high school, but how are there 91 days between 15 August and 1 November? Was looking at that for a minute and thought I was going mad.

I could of course, be totally wrong, lol.
 
Oh, yeah youre right. You know... College math :rolleyes:. I was a little too excited to do correct math, In any case my words of encouragement are what i wanted to emphasize.
