Hi everyone. I have not received my biometric yet, and after my call with USCIS, it says if I don't receive it after 90 days, I can call them again. Was anyone in the same boat? What actions can be taken after 90 days? What happened after the 90 days.

Unfortunately, there is not much you can do but wait. The three month closure has created a substantial backlog in processing biometric appointments, a matter not helped by the fact social distancing guidelines limit how many people ASCs can process per day.
Be patient, there are hundreds of thousands of people who are in a similar boat.

I'm in the same boat, still waiting for biometrics. I've called USCIS a few times and they always say the same thing- you must wait 90 days since your local office reopened before they will even consider doing anything.
Now I am curious what they are going to do once some of us hit that 90 day mark. Mine is approaching pretty soon I will let you know what happens!Processing at NBC

Call the 1-800 number and ask for tier 2 agent. I read that as long as your biometrics was scheduled and cancelled due to covid, those tier 2 agents can reschedule it. It worked in my case. They scheduled it and emailed me the appointment letter within minutes.

Hi there, i did the same thing and contacted tier 2 officer this morning and i told her that i had an biometric appointment in march and she said, she will try to reschedule it. She asked me, is 22 Oct is ok?, i said ok. After 2 minutes she said, she successfully schedule it for 22 oct.
She said, i will receive letter in mail and if not received by 19 oct contact us again.
I asked her to send me any confirmation by email about biometric, she said i cant do that
So at least something is happening in my case

Hi guys, I called again today and spoke with Tier 2 office. Since I have never had my appointment schedule, they said I have to wait for 90 days since my ASC opens. So I can call them back n Oct 11 (that's when I hit them 90 days mark), and I'll update you guys

Yeah I did get it in email, she said I can print it and take it. I am also waiting for the mail through as the email has "COPY" written on it on the background (not that I think it matters).

I called USCIS today- they said for me since it has not been 90 days since my FO has opened I have to call back again next week. I asked if I could still speak with Tier 2 and they said they are "done" with the transfers for the day and that I should call before noon next time.Processing at NBC
