Received Biometrics appointment notice on 12/5/17
Appointment was scheduled for 12/20/17 however I walked in on 12/13/2017 took about 5 mins, there was a birthday error on my I-485 so I had was to call and inform them of it so they could up date it in the system.
I received a (yellow) letter 12/22/17 to bring I-693 to the interview or in case no interview is required they'll send me an address to send it to... Waiting patiently now.

Posting status....

Hi all,

We have filed via lawyers, for the whole process (jointly filed I-130 & I-485, along with I-765 & I-131 and submission of completed medical and police certificate from UK).

We got married November 2017.

Based in Miami and Lawyers are based in New York.

11/22/2017 Package submitted to Chicago lock box via USPS by lawyers.
11/24/2017 Package received and signed - Priority date on NOA1 as 11/24/2017
11/28/2017 Checks Cashed
11/28/2017 Notice date on 4x NOA1 (I-130, I-485, I-765 & I-131) - assigned case to MSC
12/01/2017 Fingerprint notice date - Fingerprint appointment 12/18/2017
12/14/2017 Fingerprint notice received by lawyers
12/16/2017 Fingerprint notice received by us
12/18/2017 Fingerprint appointment


Online Case status update:
I-130 Case was received on 11/24/2017
I-485 Fingerprint fee was received on 11/28/2017
I-131 Case was received on 11/24/2017
I-765 Case was received on 11/24/2017

Last LUD shows as 12/06/2017 which I am assuming is just attachment of fingerprint notice.

Looked at processing times for MSC and noticed that the time for I-786 has changed from September back to June 2017, so not sure what this means? ie have they received a mass of transferred cases.

Also, under instruction from lawyers that its taking longer, we filed the I-786 without the SSN creation, apparently its faster to get EAD and then apply for SSN as you get number assigned on letter same day.

Has anyone from November had a case update status change yet?

I walked in ASC this morning. It was too crowded so they didn't take us in. The lady at ASC explained to me that even though finger print is not required for kids less than 14 years old. They do need to take the photo which I think reasonable. I will try to do the walk in again later this week.

Ok, thank you

I received the Biometric appointment for my kid too (6 years) last saturday, I have the same thoughts, I will take him anyway to the appointment next week too.

November Filer

Just wanted to share my timeline.

PD - 11/22/2017
Bio Appointment - 12/21/2017

I've reading the forums and it seems like November Filers should be getting their AP/EAD sometime in Jan/Feb.

Will update once I get more news.

Good luck everyone!!

Hi everyone,

Update on my status for i485, i131 and i765 as at today:

Nov 7 Package submission
Nov 13 Package received
Nov 17 Receipt Notice date
Nov 24 Notice received in mail
Dec 1 Biometric appointment for adults on Dec1 for i485
Dec 4 Biometric walk-in
Jan 6 Biometric appointment for kid (3yr/5yr) (i485/i765)
Jan 6 Notice email relating to i765 for adults mentioned they will use the available biometric records

My kids are 3yr & 5yr which are less than 14. I don't know why USCIS requires them to provide biometric. Anyway, I'll take them to the ASC next week for a walk-in session.
