    I was able to get through and they did not want to open up an inquiry , they stated the following:

    Unfortunately, a service request cannot be submitted for the biometrics. Due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, we have experienced delays in scheduling or rescheduling Application Support Center (ASC) appointments to collect biometrics. We are working to safely maximize appointment capacity at our centers and are also reusing previously collected biometrics to conduct background and security checks when authorized by law. Please continue to wait for an ASC Appointment Notice or you may receive Form I-797, Notice of Action from USCIS indicating that your previously collected biometrics may be reused.
    It really depends on who's on the other side. I tried more than once before I was successful. That's also how I was able to get my interview scheduled right after my biometrics appointment. Keep trying if you don't want to wait. Eventually you will find an agent who is willing to help you. Good luck!

      I am also thinking of doing the same. Just maybe scared, it might impact negatively. Do you think that can happen?

        No, it can't. There is nothing wrong with trying to push your case forward if it's stuck or moving slowly. They won't deny your case just because you are asking to place an inquiry. An inquiry is just you trying to find out why things are not moving forward in a timely manner. Worst case scenario they will tell you that you have to keep waiting and your inquiry was unsuccessful.

            Awesome. Yes, the next update you will see will be after your biometrics appointment to show that your fingerprints have been taken. I have been scheduled for an interview as well in 2 weeks and my status never updated.

              Nice! Congrats!

              How did you get her to look this up for you? When I type "check status", she just gives me the usual links:
              • Check Case Status
              • USCIS Processing Times
              • Case Outside Normal Processing Time
              • How Do I Find My Receipt Number?
              • Invalid Case Number or Receipt Number

                      I am pretty sure you have to ask Emma to connect you to an agent first. The agent will check for you.

                        Did you get an approval? I just filed my expedite request yesterday.

                          It was just shown it is approved but doesn't say when they will produce the card...

                            How long it took to get the expedite approved? I requested mine last Tuesday and haven't heard anything back. Thanks

                            • Hi again, still no biometrics appointment here..... question for the ones that expedited through EMMA, when asked for the case number which receipt case number do you give the I-485, I-130, I-765, I-131?? They all seem to have different processing times and when I have contacted EMMA I've been told to keep waiting.... If someone could help me out will be greatly appreciated, getting a bit anxious here since some filers already have EAD and on our side still no biometrics.... Thank you all

                              • Hi everyone, I applied to expedite my EAD on May 3rd. I provided my I-765 receipt number.
                                I received an update on my receipt number May 4th that said "my expedite request received" - We are reviewing your request and will notify you if we need additional information.
                                Then on May 5th, I received an email from USCIS - "a receipt for my recent inquiry" saying my case is currently under review and I will receive a decision or notice of further action shortly.

                                Has anyone experienced anything similar or have any idea on how long it normally takes for them to make a decision? Hoping and praying I get it approved soon.
