DV 2020 AOS Only

If you already have your biometrics taken you shouldn't be worried at all. You still have a lot of time. Most DV cases are decided in months leading up to the end of fiscal year.

My scheduled apt (for April 10th) was canceled but now the FO seems to show no sign of opening anytime soon, it took me 4 months to get interview notice after biometrics back in Dec. I don't understand shopping malls are opening and USCIS remains closed! This is some crazy luck issue.
 
AOS2020, some people are still waiting for acceptance text for their application for more than 2 weeks already without knowing that it was even picked up due to USPS forgetting to update tracking info.
So, you are still in very good shape :)

Yeah,.I'm in the same wagon. I'm waiting for NOA actually :D
I understand someone's frustration if waiting from February, but still plenty of time left. So let's all be patient and wait for our turn, because of the so low number of issued visas so far, I'm positive they will give their best to adjust as many statuses as possible!

Then again, such a thing is not necessarily unusual anyway. A number of offices bundle DV cases and some of the applicants end up waiting 6 months or longer for an interview anyway if they are one of the earlier numbers to become current.
 
Thank you all people for all the positivity. I am just praying we all get past this soon with our all's AOS approval and get to chill a bit with our new statuses :).
 
Hey guys,

So no one is rescheduled yet (from those with cancelled interviews), right?

And any updates on ASCs reopenings? I know somebody mentioned 22nd of June, but it was't official yet. If anybody has some news, please share.
 
Hey guys,

USCIS is having a webinar on June 18th from 3 to 4pm EST to talk about the reopening of domestic offices. They provided an email address to submit questions and will answer some of those questions during the webinar. I think it will be a good idea for us to ask about things like when ASC’s will open, rescheduling interviews, biometrics scheduling etc. The email address to submit questions is public.engagement@uscis.dhs.gov (I tried posting the direct link to the event on the uscis website but the forum will not allow me to post it. Go to the homepage and scroll down to the news and events section and you can find it listed in the national engagements section.) Registration for the webinar is directly on the uscis website.

When I reach that part where I insert number, it says it can't be verified.
Do you have T-mobile postpaid or prepaid?
Mine is prepaid and that seems to be a problem.

Hi skip1 , how did you solve the problem with the phone number to get your tax transcripts? I have the same issue. Do you think turning off the prepaid service on your phone might help creating an account with IRS?

I switched to postpaid, changed Caller ID, did everything, but still no luck. I ended up mailing all W-2, paystubs and tax return and hope that it will be OK.
From the threads on T-mobile support board, this is a widespread issue, but no clue on which end the problem is - T-Mobile or IRS.

But still the risk increases as we approach to the end of FY 2020. My biometric was completed on Jan 29 and my case status still says biometric received since months. I am not sure when will they complete the background checks and send interview schedule. Are you or anyone here aware of people receiving interview notice post USCIS opened on June 4?

I am also on the same boat. But for me they send a letter saying that they have used my previous biometrics, and the case was updated stating "Finger Review was completed, but it already passes 2 and half months, and did not receive any update after that.

Mine biometric was done on Jan 27 at ASC Las Vegas and my status still says Case was received. They haven't updated anything on my 485 case. Not sure with all those situations how and what they are gonna proceed.

So I have been trying to keep my cool for a really long time like everyone here is doing, but is there any way we can have USCIS to process our applications (reschedule canceled apt) given the life is at hold due to pending AOS applications and the FY is so near to end and so many of the applicants are just starting, and my time of applicants ar hanging n between. My FO is still closed with no certainty of opening anytime soon. Does anyone have any info on this by any means?
I am losing my patience by now,
Thank you,
