Hi AlexGinga,

Just curious - have you received an email update to the following effect:

Your case has been transferred to a local office and an interview will be scheduled

Wondering how long it takes to:

(a) Get that email after FP done
(b) Get the Interview Letter after this email arrives?

Thanks in advance..

Ausdude-

A) It usually take 10-15 days, sometimes 30 but for what've seen lately 15 days.
B) I've seen people here get the interview letter dated the same day the email was sent for the standard interview update. Meaning you will get the interview letter on the mail within 3-4 days. But who knows...

Thanks much, Mimi1212.

I hope mine falls in the "normal" category. Will keep you guys posted.

Btw, this is a great forum to be in touch with others in the same boat. Glad I stumbled in...

No problem! It looks we have close dates! so let's all hope for what you said "normal" processing =)

Yup, sure looks like it.

I did apply for a "name change" -- did read elsewhere it might delay my interview a tad. We'll see.
 
Uh I don't know but I thought the name change was done after the interview and had nothing to do with the process until then.......again, who knows!

FP Results sent to Vermont!!!????

Here is another curiosity in the USCIS process. Self and Spouse had our FPs done on 08/26 (2 days back). I called the FBI fp check number today to see if they had been "processed" (whatever that means). Person at the other end of the phone got name/ss number of my wife and I and then

She asked: "Where did you get your fingerprints done?"
Me: "Elizabeth New Jersey"
She says: " I have no record of any finger print results sent To/From NJ"
Me: :eek:
Me Then: :confused: May be the results were sent to either Lewisville, TX or the National Benefits center.
She then: No I only have results sent to Vermont and that was yesterday.
Me: Oh It might be because New Jersey probably comes under the Vermont Service Center of the USCIS.
Me: Do you have any information of the results?
She: No, I only have that they were sent back for you and your spouse yesterday:
Me: :rolleyes:. Okay Thanks for your help.

My question to y'all - Is this normal to get the FPs sent to Vermont when my application was sent to Texas (TSC?) but I got my notice from the National Benefits Center and I am domiciled in NJ?

Probably it is normal and this is how the USCIS (dis)functions but I thought I'll just churn the waters up :p with this extra bit of info (?).

Texas is the lockbox facility, NBC is the central location of files and Vermont is the regional service center that has jurisdiction over NJ DO.

Umm... most ASC's will let you just walkin as long as you take your appointment letter, and green card - just make sure they're open when you go... I got mine done early snce I was travelling out of the country during the appt date. (see signature).
