Got the interview letter on Friday. Scheduled for March 7th.
My lawyer is Judith G Cooper. They've been pretty good so far. As far as the walk-in, I just went there before it opened and got in line. When I showed them my letter, they asked me to go and talk to the manager who asked me to wait and maybe she'd be able to let me through if there is space. I was done within 40 minutes. I did have all the paperwork showing that I would be out of the country the day of my scheduled appointment though.
I hope this helps.
The answer is in this post from Izzy:
FYI: Name Check Status after Biometrics
FYI:
Those wanting to know if their name check cleared:
1. Call FBI National Name Check Customer Service @ 304-625-5590.
2. Select option 2 (for individual), then option 2 (Name Check for Immigration Status), then it will give you brief internet details and then it will provide you with the option to repeat the options, go back to main menu or speak with a rep., select speak with a rep. and wait to be connected.
3. NOTE: THEY ARE NOT UNDER ANY OBLIGATION TO PROVIDE YOU WITH YOUR NAME CHECK STATUS, THEY WILL ONLY TELL YOU WHEN IT WAS RECEIVED FROM USCIS AND WHEN (IF) IT WAS RETURNED TO USCIS.
4. Be very polite, don't push if you can't get an answer and try another time. Give your name (as a courtesy) and say you want to check the status of your finger print. They will ask you when you submitted the request. Tell them that it is for Green Card. They will then ask you for your A# (the one on your NOAs). They will only tell you when it was received and when it was returned (possibly cleared as any issues with name check can take weeks/months before it is returned to USCIS with "No Record" result).
This info is only to help those who are curious to know if their name check cleared. Good Luck!
Hello Everyone!
I received the NOA letter and Biometrics Letter today. The curious thing is my biometrics date is one week ahead of my husband's...
According to previous experiences, I'm not going to do info pass. Do you suggest to do walk-in biometrics on my date (the first one)?
Thank you for your feedback!

@ Dimus: Thank you for your answer. The reason is I live in a City far from the FO in Charleston. I thought the day we go for mine, maybe we can ask to do my husband's at the same time.
@ Feel: Please don't worry. Your are still below the maximum days gap in our timeline (22 days). I don't have idea if this is possible in US....: contact USPS and ask if they have any mail pending at your name...just a suggestion, I never did it, but maybe they can check in the system. On the other hand, the acceptance step definition, says: "If you do not receive your notice within 30 days of mailing your application, please contact our national customer service center at 1-800-375-5283"
So, please don't worry.
Quick Q:
When I applied for the DV, my application was as single. I have since married, and we are both in the US on proper status. When I submit my DOS fee, should I submit $440x2 = $880, or is it just $440 since it was just one person on the original application?
We're doing AOS for both person with the USCIS, so I'm thinking I should lean towards the $880. Is that correct?
You are correct. By the way did you inform KCC about your marriage?
No, I guess I'm suppose to? There isn't much (actually any) instructions on USCIS or the DV websites that explains what to do in my case. I assume I just follow the normal steps, but just submit the additional AOS application along with the requisite proof (ie marriage certificate).
Do you know the instructions to inform them, or have a link for it?
I recall seeing in this forum (not in this specific thread) where someone mentioned they knew some people that even got married a couple of weeks prior to their interview. There is no way they can inform the proper agency within that 2 weeks can they?
Hi all,
Is there a list of required documents for proof of financial support/salary, etc.? Are we required to include federal tax returns in additon to W-2?
Thanks.
Congrats, finally guys from Boston start getting some interview letters. Good Luck, a week more to wait and you will be done.
