You should not receive a notification after the biometrics but you may see changes in the last update date in the USCIS online status service. Notifications are sent when a hard update has been made to your case (i.e. when the status changes). A soft update means that only the last update date has changed but the status remains the same.
Don't be afraid about the interview. The officers are professional and make you feel at ease most of the times.
Good luck!

Hi folks,
It is true as of May 11, 2010 USCIS Redesigned the Green Cards.
Actually along with a lot of other features they are making the cards
in green color. The people who are still in the process hopefully will get
brand new "GREEN" cards!!!

USCIS To Issue Redesigned Green Card
WASHINGTON - U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced today that it has redesigned the Permanent Resident Card - commonly known as the "Green Card" - to incorporate several major new security features. The Green Card redesign is the latest advance in USCIS's ongoing efforts to deter immigration fraud. State-of-the-art technology incorporated into the new card prevents counterfeiting, obstructs tampering, and facilitates quick and accurate authentication. Beginning today, USCIS will issue all Green Cards in the new, more secure format.
"Redesigning the Green Card is a major achievement for USCIS," said Director Alejandro Mayorkas. "The new security technology makes a critical contribution to the integrity of the immigration system."
The enhanced features will better serve law enforcement, employers, and immigrants, all of whom look to the Green Card as definitive proof of authorization to live and work in the United States. Among the benefits of the redesign: Secure optical media will store biometrics for rapid and reliable identification of the card holder. Holographic images, laser engraved fingerprints, and high resolution micro-images will make the card nearly impossible to reproduce. Tighter integration of the card design with personalized elements will make it difficult to alter the card if stolen. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) capability will allow Customs and Border Protection officers at ports of entry to read the card from a distance and compare it immediately to file data. Finally, a preprinted return address will enable the easy return of a lost card to USCIS.
In keeping with the Permanent Resident Card's nickname, it will now be colored green for easy recognition. USCIS will replace Green Cards already in circulation as individuals apply for renewal or replacement.

I have one question for all of you. I'll appreciate any sugestion.
In my interview letter they ask that my sponsor gives me an original letter of employment on company letter head.
My sponsor is self employed how that letter has to look like? Anyone has idea about that form of letter?
I found sample:
Date: <January 01, 2008>
Re: Employment verification for <petitioner's full name>
To Whom It May Concern:
My name is <petitioner's full name>. I reside at: <petitioner's address>
I make the following statement under penalty of perjury that: I have been self-employed since <October 1st, 2007> and working as a <type of work or role in business>. My annual salary is $00,000.00 for year <current year>.
Additionally, I pledge that [wife/husband/fiancee/friend] <beneficiary's full name> will not be any public charge.
Please feel free to contact me if your office should require further information.
Thank you very much for your kindness and your attention to this letter.
Sincerely,
<petitioners signature>
<petitioners full name>
<petitioners designation>
Phone: <petitioners phone>
So what do you think? Is it ok???

Congratulations i2009 on your Welcome Letter ! Been away for sometime and missed out on your good news!!!
Now our NEW GREEN CARDS should be on their way !!!!!!
I guess this explains why there is a delay in the issuing of the GREEN CARDS. Thanks nepal2010 and capeolive for sharing the new GREEN CARD information.
Thanks 2010FORME, I hope that we both receive our new green cards really soon!
Hello new one,
This letter looks good to me. It covers all the information that they need. You may need to bring a copy of your sponsor's tax return declaration to the interview (it could be in a closed envelop so you don't need to see it).
Best of luck, June 22 is getting close!
