TX - 78717 : Timeline and skipping fingerprint by USCIS
I filed N-400 on 7/9 (90 days before 5 year completion with GC).
I received acknowledgment next week and USCIS’s intent to schedule biometric apt.
later next week to that, I received a letter stating that they could reuse my biometric information from previous submission.
Is this normal and Ok?
I want to Visit my Home Country (India for 2-3 weeks), in current situation is that fine while application is in process. Normal standard application - no complications. Was in us about 4.5 years in last 5 years and have strong ties (if required to prove at immigration).
I am worried in case interview appointment fall during those weeks then I may miss it. Can I rely on this app to get latest status?
Let me know
1) Normal for USCIS to reuse previous biometric?
2) Ok to travel in current geopolitical situation
3) Status of case on this app can be trusted
4) in Texas how much more time I should expect for interview schedule and timelines of next steps (oath, certificate and passport)
What to prepare for in the I-485 Interview
My case recently showed “Case is ready to be scheduled for an interview”. I have 4 speeding tickets all of which have been resolved; $320.25 (2023), $347.00 (2022), $733 (2022), $887 (2021). No arrest was made, I only had to pay the speeding tickets and my driving record shows “good standing”.
No middle name on my birth certificate, all my other documents have my middle name. So I had to submit other supporting documentation to explain the difference.
what sort of questions should I expect related to either speeding or the birth certificate?
