Just a quick update. I got my IL in the mail today, the interview is scheduled for August 3. My FO is San Jose, but my ASC is Salinas (reopens on 7/27), and I have not received a biometrics letter yet. Still, I am very happy with the development! Wishing good luck to everyone else on this forum

Sorry guys, I didn't intend to make people feel bad and anxious by sharing my news. I feel for you, the process has been very nerve-wrecking for me so far as well. I hope that everyone will get their appointments scheduled and letters received very soon. Stay patient and stay strong!
And thanks to Mom for all the help, advice, and support!

Oh man I'm sorry I made you think that. This thread, if anything, is a great support group, and maybe the only thing that keeps me sane. I GENUINELY rejoice at your good luck and hope for the best outcome for you and everyone else.
Sorry for that.

@Ale85 @WaitingAoS @Marco Rossi do not cry yet!
if you look through the last years' AOS threads for August-Sep, you will see how many things happen literally in the last weeks and days(!) of September. Amazing how people with so complicated cases managed to get GCs. I am eagerly awaiting for the letters too. @Sm1smom I was thinking to start taking active steps (e.g. reaching out to congress reps) if no news by around early-August but then realized that the congress will go on recess in August - do you think it would be more prudent to reach out earlier? I recognize though that USCIS has a legit excuse of COVID for the time being
I have just received a call from my FO and my interview is being scheduled for July 31st!!! I'm all over the place at the moment
I have asked about biometrics. Lady explained to me that they are aware of it and that it should not be a problem and that it's something that's going to be handled by the agent that's going to interview me. Also, this is 2 weeks from now so I might even get the actual bio appointemnt in the mean time since my ASC is opening up next Monday.
Just a personal note: It seemed to me that she waited until she has contacted me through phone before she actually mailed out physical interview letter. I'm saying that because she has said that while speaking with me, she is putting my interview letter in the mail and she has also confirmed and verified my home address over the phone. It's possible that they would mail it out anyways, had I know answered the call, but just wanted to share the personal feeling that I got from the conversation.

Dear @Sm1smom I refer to the response @skip1 received and I feel I got confused (again). The response states that "...case is with FO for biometrics scheduling...", while my understanding was always that the biometrics scheduling is done with NBC, no? Is it just some sort of inaccurate text from the response or is it indeed the FO that arranges biometrics? I am thinking at some point to reach out to USCIS and request a service request as well.
