- Next I called the customer service and scheduled the appointment for Biometrics. Fortunately I got the appointment the very next day.
- I had to show the online receipt for Biometrics at ASC at Biometrics because I did'nt recieve the USCIS reciept till then.
- The Biometrics went smooth and no questions asked. They took the impression of index finger, electronic signature and digital pic.
- Next day I mailed all the required papers to USCIS. I used Fedex for confirmation of receipt and in documents referenced wrote " EAD docs myname". So that the Fedex reciept shows the reference of documents.
- Case got approved on 16th day of applying.
- I recieved the card after 32 days of applying.
hope this helps
