Congrats! Yes it is normal, my husband's Bio appt was 3 days earlier than mine, but we both went to his date and they allowed us to take them. So don't worry.

Congratulations Ahad! Just be sure to have originals of everything you submitted, they may or may not ask, but better safe than sorry. I think most of us have a degree or two higher than high school, but still they required to see the HS, so it's the policy. All the best as you prepare for the interview.
Hi 2010FORME,
You can go to ASC on the day of the first biometrics appointment.
In this kind of cases they usually accept walk-in biometrics.
Try to go there early though...

As I understood from other guys experience that everything depends on the Field Office, some of them works fast some works slow. You can schedule your Infopass and ask them about your biometrics appointment, it can help! Concerining your online statuse, they do not post everything, it's not well developed system yet. In my case i could not see my status till i did my biometrics, after that I can check only i-485 and i-765 (till now the status never changed) and I still can not check my i-131 (it says that my case number cannot be found). So don't worry about online status, just go and talk to your local USCIS. Good luck!!!
Hi antar45,
I think you can schedule an InfoPass for next week.
Hopefully you'll get your biometrics appointment letter
and you won't have to go for your InfoPass apppointment.
As for case update system they are still working on it
to improve the system. Do not rely on it alone...

Hi Guys anyone here waiting for interview letter from the LA uscis I did my bio on the 22 DEC 09 I think due to the xmas period and what not the wait time will be a little longer If anybody could let me know their wait time at this office that would be comforting. As I may very well go insane before it arrives.
Hi steve2010,
Waiting is tough especially in an expedited application.
Most of the applicants in the forum interviewed between
20-60 days after biometrics. You have been waiting way too long.
What you can do is:
1. Make an InfoPass (if it doesn't work make another one)
2. Call KCC and find out if your file has been requested by Los Angeles Field Office yet
3. Call USCIS
4. You can write to USCIS or NBC
5. Finally you can go to your congressman's office
6. Be nice to the people you talk
7. Be positive and do what you can.
I hope you get your interview letter soon...

You are mistaken Capeolive. Some of us have been waiting for more than 3 months after the biometrics to receive the interview letter. I will take my case, I have been waiting for 3 months. I did my bimetrics on Nov 2nd and received the interview letter on Jan28th. It depends on the field office. I will suggest that he makes an infopass often just to remind them that his case is over there. But for now. I do not see nothing wrong with his case.
Linda where are you and is it going? I have my interview on Monday.

Thanks for the reply i2009.
We have our appts as follows
Mine - 3/22/10 at 10am
My husband and daughter (15yrs) - 3/24/10 at 10am
We are trying to take a chance and go for the biometrics on 3/22/10 at 10 am for all 3 of us.
Has anybody in this forum expericenced a similar situation and was allowed to combine the biometrics with that of the family member who has the earliest appt.? Doing it together is it okay or would it create problems and best left on the dates mentioned in the appt letter.
Thank you.
Thank you capeolive.
I only hope this will not cause any confusion not going as per their specified date.
I believe you all can give your biometric information at once during your appointment. It takes 5 min. to take biometric information from each person. Just go together and try.
Hello 2010FORME,
I don't think that it would create any confusion if you all have the biometrics done at the same time, it seems to be an automated process, they scan the barcode in the appointment letters (they don't need the file to be present at the time of the biometrics). But, this is USCIS, anything could happen...
Good luck!
If you have an Alien Number you need to enter it in that box, otherwise just enter N/A.
new one,
As per i2009 if you have Alien number write it down if not put n/a.
Just to clarify "if you have filed any application with USCIS and got
a 9 digit number with NOAs and EAD looks like AXXXXXXXXX or
A# XXX-XXX-XXX you have it if not put n/a
Take your time with application and make sure not to make any mistakes.
Before you send it make a copy of the file you send.
If you have any questions do not hesitate to ask...

Capeolive,
Thanks for fast answer. So, no I didn't get any NOA jet, so I don't have any A#. Should I just leave that blank or write none?
I think I am fine with everything else, waiting for my number become current and I will sent all to Chicago.
You are guys amazing, helped me a lot. Last night I finished reading all 100 pages.......and now I am little bit relaxed because I saw all your good experiences.
Congratulations to all you guys!!! Thanks you are sharing your experience with us.
