Well, I finally got my stinkin' biometrics appointment today! (the ASC visit did not help much).

It is for July 22nd!... It took 40 days from RD of the Extension until the RD for the Biometrics...

Finally!!! I wonder why it took so long... I guess it depends on who got your case, who processed it initially, how fast their computer was, if they had coffee in the morning, if the Lakers won the game, etc. ;) It all seems so random sometimes, but hey, at least you didn't miss your appointment. By the way, did they at least tell you that at the ASC?

My receipt number does not show up online yet. How long did it take for you guys to be able to track it online? :p

I think that my application showed up online only after I actually did the FP/Bio. The LUD is still the date I had my biometrics done.

Edit: Nope, I take that back. The LUD is one day after the FP/Bio.

Finally!!! I wonder why it took so long... According to the ASC lady, it depends on the actual slots that they have open for appointments at the ASC. With summer just around the corner, people re-scheduling like crazy and this being the only ASC for Alabama, they were pretty busy.By the way, did they at least tell you that at the ASC?

They didn't really tell me much. Just to wait and wait... They would not check my name against their system or anything... but oh well, that is past me now.

I guess I will wait until after my biometrics to try it then. :cool:
 
I am glad you got your Bio too. I guess this just shows that there are no set time or reason how things are done by USCIS. We will never know. I often are very frustrated thinking that they let people judge our marriage. My wife and I feel like we live under a microscope constantly being monitored. Everything we do have to be "documented". It just almost feels like I am doing it just for "proofs". This has caused some tensions in my family...

Anyhow, I read that the case # will work only after the BIO. Are you going to do a walk-in to see if you can get it done sooner? I have decided to just wait for the actual date. Don't want to jinx myself...

I am just going to wait for the actual date. It actually is a perfect date for me.
 
I just got the approval letter today. Shows a decision date of 06/26/2009 which is just 6 days after the early walk-up biometrics... amazing. I was expecting to hear in August or September. no REF, no interview... and only took 53 days to process.

Looks like CSC is making up for the long wait on the biometrics!

(also, the online status does not show as approved. it still lists the last update as 06/23/2009)

Holy crap, dude! What did you send them in your application? A million dollars!? ;)

Boy, I hope this happens to me, too. That would make my traveling so much easier...

Congratulations!

Haha! I was actually a little worried becuase our supporting docs were only maybe 30 pages or so. Just the basics (joint tax return, bank, deed, affidavits, pics, etc). After I read on this forum what some of others have sent (200+ pages) I assumed I would get an RFE or interview...

Anyway, I wish you get a quick approval also.
 
I got my Biometric done almost a month ago (06/12), still I haven't seen any update on my case status checking by the number on the biometric appointment letter....What kind of LUD did you guys see post biometric? I'm starting to worry if something has indeed gone wrong...

You didn't get any update after the biometrics?

I did biometrics on Saturday, June 20th. On Monday, June 22nd there was an update online. There was another on June 23rd. (I assume that was the FBI name check results?)
 
i thought all the name check nuisance is now behind as i did get delayed with name check results for I-485 two years ago...so, I-751's biometric also requires a name check from FBI? My most recent soft LUD was like in April when I first got the letter...:(
 
I'm by no means an expert. Perhaps someone can confirm? I assume that it still gets an FBI namecheck...

Congrats!
Anyways, I tried to see whats the processing time on 751 at CSC but i coulnt see the I-751 there.. For VSC it sais 6months. I was just trying to figure out how accurate that report based on ur 53 days...
 
They do perform ANOTHER FBI Namecheck when you file I-751 (you could have become a terrorist after your first 2 years as a resident) :p.
 
So, is it normal to not have a LUD after biometric? Is there a way to check if USCIS has received the result and indeed is now just waiting for name check? I'm just so sick of calling USCIS...first, I didn't receive my receipt notice after almost 2 months submitting it...next, I missed the original biometric date since no letter came to my address...apparently, they got my address wrong...I myself had to make an Infopass to get everything straightened out, and finally got a make-up biometric appointment...

this whole I-751 ordeal is just insane....
 
Hey all,

Just posting that 1 day after the Biometrics appointment my online status started to show something.. Its currently @received and pending with the date of 05/29/2009

Nothing else yet
