I-751 - Expected wait time for new appointment?

[torearneson]

I received my green card through marriage, and this spring it was time to file my I-751. On June 4, I received a reply asking me to go to the Seattle office for biometrics on June 11. Since this day was going to be particularly busy at work, I checked the "please reschedule my appointment" box, made a copy for my records, and mailed the form back to the address supplied the next day. (I mailed the letter with delivery confirmation, so I know that the Seattle office received it on June 5.)

It has now been 2 1/2 months since I was supposed to have my biometrics taken, and I have still not been contacted for a new appointment. I don't necessarily care about the process taking a few months, but I am starting to worry that USCIS will consider my application abandoned.

What are common/expected wait times for a new appointment? And what steps can I take to ensure that they did in fact receive my request for a new appointment?

Thanks,

It was not a good idea to mail it back to USCIS. However, if you have a copy, you can still go to ASC and try to get it done if they accept it.

or at least show up and get some information about the status of your case.
