1. I'd say so? Has she changed her name on her SSN, too?
2. That should be a "no," because the moment you file for AOS you are allowed to stay in the US (you just cannot work any longer UNLESS you get your new EAD card). Either way though, it doesn't hurt to file rather sooner than later.

Can we take biometrics done on any day as a walking? shouldn't we go in appointed date?
You mentioned, You had 01/22/2018 appointment schedule, but you done with your biometrics on 01/12/2018. Can we do that?

Waiting for Biometrics letter

Ok you all,
My PD is 01/04 and I’m still waiting on my Bio letter. Im assuming that I should get it this month because I seen a lot of people getting theirs between 2-4 weeks after PD. Any suggestions or guess when I would get mines?
Would I get an email/text whenever they send me the Bio letter?

I didnt receive any text/email. I got my biometrics letter around 2,5 weeks after my PD

Government Shutdown

Will a potential government shutdown interfere with our timeline? I was thinking to mail my package next week but I would rather hold on ifUSCIS is shut down (I am afraid my package will get lost). What are your thoughts?

No it will not. I sent my package in yesterday. With the political climate right now I think it's best to send in any applications ASAP because you never know when this current administration will change immigration policies.

Fist post

Hello guys ! My lawyer sent my petition on junuary 10th and yesterday they cashed my checks ... how long does the fingerprint appointment take ? I’m living in Las Vegas Nevada right now.

And my second question guys is do you think that ICE can look for us now that they have all our info? I overstayed my visa .. I am a little worried for all the news. Thank you so much !

If you're adjusting status under immediate relative, that is I-130 u should be exempted from penalization. Only way ICE would take u is if u had violations with the law, whether major minor offences. They don't care. They recently arrested a GC holder who's a doctor in the US for 40 years for minor offences he committed as a teenager. I think you're only 100% safe from ICE when you get your citizenship/ naturalization. Trump admin is cold.
