Dv 2009 - Aos Only

There's no one to call about Biometrics result. U can make an infopass and ask or you can call the FBI. All FBI can tell ya is that the result has been sent back to USCIS ( Namecheck). Background check you'll have to make an infopass appointment for.

The FBI number is good for finding whether the FBI sent to USCIS the results of the fingerprint check - not your name check !!!. They will not tell you if and what they found out, but they'll tell you if they send the results back (as far as I remember, they ask for your A#). The results were probably sent back the same/next day of your biometrics appointment.

InfoPass appointments are the only way that I know for finding out whether your name/background checks are complete.
 
CONGRATULATIONS! to all of those who successfully completed their interviews :) It's quite a time record :) Enjoy your new status! :)

yes, it is a time record. someone got his greencard in 2 months.
I was looking at ur timelineand it seemed like u sure had a rough time with USCIS.
 
"Your item was delivered at 2:49 PM on December 2, 2008 in CHICAGO
The item was signed for by V BUSTAMANTE."

It's a little annoying how we paid for overnight so it would arrive on Monday the 1st by 3pm and it get's there on Tuesday the 2nd at pretty much 3pm. Sounds like a refund to me for failing to deliver there guarantee. BUT... the good part is that they did get it! :)

Congats to everybody who got aproved!!!:)
Is anybody applying in January??? When do you think should we send: 30, 31, 1st ??:confused: do you have any idea how they work these days?
 
I was told that if you are applying for adjustment of status you can send your AOS package as soon as you see that your number will be up... meaning that if my number would be current in February, then that should appear in the January Bulletin (which appears in December), meaning that I can send my file in December (eventhough I won't be current until February).
Please correct me if the info is wrong.
Thank you

My suggestion; save yourself the trouble by keeping it simple. I recommend you have your package delivered to USCIS during the month in which your CN is current. USCIS is tough enough to deal without adding unnecessary complications :)
 
Alright...more progress. I received a letter in the mail today asking me to appear for my interview. Get this..it's scheduled for just over a week from today! :eek:.

yes, u can. that was exactly what i did and i was fine. As long as the visa bulletin shows that u will be current, it means that there is a visa available for ya.
The visa bulletin that came out in march, 08 showed that i'll be current in May so i mailed my aos applcation march 17th, 08 and i never had any problems.
 
Hey guys,

Congratulations to all who already got their green cards!

Has anyone already gone to an interview, or received a notice for interview, in the New York field office? If so, how long did it take from the time you sent the package?

Thanks.
