  • Biometrics Predicament

    Hi,

    I have been following postings here for past many months. I have learned a lot by reading other folks experiences that they have shared. This forum has been extremely helpful to me.

    So far I didn't need to post a question but now I think I have to. In June 14th, 2018 our documents were submitted to USCIS. For both me and my wife I-485 and I-765 and advance parole I-131 just for my wife. We received on June 27th, 2018 biometric notification letters with a date set for July 9th, 2018. Next day on June 28th, 2018 we did the early walkin and within 15 minutes our biometric process was completed. I decided to do early walkin after reading other experiences here on immihelp. We did this at West Palm Beach, Florida.

    On July 11, 2018 status on https://myaccount.uscis.dhs.gov was updated "We reviewed your biometrics and are still processing your case. You do not need to do anything at this time." for both my I-485 and I-765 applications. The website https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do doesn't show any new updates for our cases and results there are still from June 14.

    On the other hand for my wife's I-485 and I-765, the status on DHS website still shows as "We received your biometrics fee and are reviewing your case" and this update is from June 14, 2018. Both of our biometrics were conducted same date and time (mine was done 1st and then my wife's) so my question is, is this a normal situation to have my case updated with biometrics reviewed and my wife's case showing no progress?

    Hope to receive useful feedback.

    My timeline
    06/14/2018 - 1-485 & I-765 received by USCIS both me and my wife. I-131 for my wife.
    06/27/2018 - Biometric notices received for July 9th, 2018
    06/28/2018 - Biometrics done by early walkin
    07/11/2018 - My I-485 & I-765 status updated as We reviewed your biometrics and are still processing your case but my wife's case is showing no status change

    I got similar notices too after my biometrics was done. In fact that message has still not changed and I am 2 days away from my interview. Worry not, just be prepared to wait for a few months until a year (like me).

    All the best.

      Mine didn't update. I did my biometrics and my status remained as they had sent me a biometrics appointment until months later when it updated to RFE and then ready to be scheduled for interview. I think it depends on the officer dealing with it as to whether they add an update to say they've been reveiwed or not. Nothing to worry about if it doesn't get updated.

        Because all these updates are so inconsistent, we have to think that they're all done manually. Officers may not update every little step they complete. They may think this saves them time or they just do not care at all.
