If they sent the finger prints and I did not receive them, what would be the next step for me.
I'm talking about biometrics (photo+sign) rather than 10-print FPs. Did you ever provide biometrics to USCIS? Based on various approvals posted in this forum, I've observed that some AOs tend to send out approvals along with a biometrics collection notice, while some AOs wait for biometrics to return before they approve. Yours could be a latter case.
The next step for you is obviously to try to find out the reason for the NOID and start working on it before you even get the notice. If TSC can't tell you the reason over the phone, you'll have to wait for the actual notice itself.
<rant>As for FP notices, I believe TSC screwed up big time sometime in April when they *supposedly* sent out many FP notices, and many of the recipients never received it. I wonder if some lawyer will be willing enough to file a class-action lawsuit on behalf of all the subsequently injured parties.
When it is the applicant's "fault", the standard response from USCIS is: denied! Of course, when it is USCIS' fault, it's not really their fault, because it is still the applicant who suffers since the end result is the same: denied!
I so wish these people are held accountable for all the screwups they do every so often, then try to pass it off on us uninformed, kept-in-the-dark applicants who desperately want to believe in a reasonably fair and functioning system.</rant>
