Biometrics appointment
Hi guys,
Do any of you know how long it takes to get the biometrics appointment?
I received an email after expediting my I-765 saying that my information was entered in their system which schedules appointments.
PD: 3/1/2021
Im assuming my local office would be Phoenix, AZ.

Did you call them and then tried to expedite your case? what was the reason for expediting? Did they ask you if you have BM done?
ser kanJul 15, 2021
when did you file your application?

my work permit ends in September and I call them for financial loss. the agent took note of everything for expediting the i-765. Thought it would trigger the Biometrics….

they are different! I asked tier2 officer and he was like I cant expedite biometric. I heard people got EAD with no bio
John SmithJul 15, 2021
well my case is on hold until I get the bio done…. waiting for it… it looked like some people expedited the 765 and they got the bio right after scheduled.

but all times are filled atleast a month if they decide to give you a time today

@nicholas give it a few day and find out updates regarding your case. I’m sure the fingerprints will be scheduled by then.

Hi it took about 9 months for me to receive biometrics appointment. I got the letter in the mail a few days ago. PD Oct 5 2020 , scheduled for late July.
John SmithJul 15, 2021
@seyi R, hopefully… not sure what the wait duration is at the ASC Phoenix

guess they now working on Jan filers

I received the same email on the 13th of July still waiting to see when I will be scheduled for biometrics.
John SmithJul 15, 2021
yeah it’s been 20 days since I received the email
seyi RJul 15, 2021
wow that’s crazy….I got my bio few days later.
juliet 0Jul 15, 2021
@Nicolas have you called to ask if you have been scheduled for biometrics?
John SmithJul 15, 2021
I did two days ago. it’s still a no :/
juliet 0Jul 15, 2021
wow that's a lot of time am praying mine won't take that long been waiting for 11 months now
Aseret AlvaradoJul 15, 2021
mine says the same thing :(
Thomas LJul 16, 2021
same
juliet 0Jul 16, 2021
update just confirmed I have been scheduled for biometrics on 8/6/2021 asked through Emma using my 485 receipt number. so happy 😊good luck to us all
John SmithJul 16, 2021
Nice @juliet! so it took you about a month to get that confirmation since you got the same email I received?
juliet 0Jul 16, 2021
I got the email on the 13th but today the agent said I should wait 7 business days from 7/9/2021 to receive the letter. so that means I was scheduled on the 9th before the email on the 13th.
Also I have checked all my accounts to see the notice online but non of my accounts are showing it.
Aseret AlvaradoJul 16, 2021
@juliet can you share your timeline … I asked for expedite request and I was denied … then I received the email about them entering information in database … do you think they will schedule me for biometrics next ?
John SmithJul 16, 2021
yes same for me it’s been three weeks since my email. And no updates online. The email was saying my case is on hold until they get my biometrics
John SmithJul 16, 2021
@juliet, I was wondering… are you able to see your appointment if you go to myuscis account, resources > schedule an appointment > View your appointment ? or this part has nothing to do with biometrics appointments?
Aseret AlvaradoJul 16, 2021
@nicolas same here I received the email after the 4 th of July … so I’m waiting to see hopefully it triggers the system and we get it soon ..
juliet 0Jul 16, 2021
@Aseret my I_765 was received on August 31st 2020. 11 months now lol crazy wait for biometrics. I think you are probably scheduled for bio considering my case just will take some time to get to you but we closer to that biometrics notice 😊.
juliet 0Jul 16, 2021
my expedite request was received July 1 st 2021
juliet 0Jul 16, 2021
@Nicolas am checking now
juliet 0Jul 16, 2021
@Nicolas I don't have a confirmation number or pin so assume this wouldn't show the biometrics appointment. I heard people saying they saw it on the documents tab for their 130, but it's not showing on mine.
Mashpeace TansakoJul 16, 2021
I think it applies to those that filed online
juliet 0Jul 16, 2021
The best way to find out is to talk or chat with an agent and ask if you have been scheduled using your I 485. because the agent didn't see the biometrics for I 765 it was only on my 485
John SmithJul 16, 2021
or you can do by first/last name and dob on that same page.
John SmithJul 16, 2021
@juliet can you try and let me know if you see any appointments this way?
John SmithJul 16, 2021
ok got you. yes i tried for the i-765 only
juliet 0Jul 16, 2021
@Nicolas I just tried and still can't see anything
John SmithJul 16, 2021
ok! thank you for taking the time to try it :) I really appreciate it. it might just be for the interview appointments…
juliet 0Jul 16, 2021
yeah maybe
John SmithJul 17, 2021
I just saw a message popping up on my phone saying my case was ready bla-bla-bla… then I clicked on it and there’s nothing in the app!?!
juliet 0Jul 17, 2021
lol I received the same from the app and I clicked and nothing 🙃. if it's not a change in case status then it doesn't matter lol. they be playing with my mind
juliet 0Jul 17, 2021
the physical copy of my biometrics appointment Is arriving today from usps and I never saw it online. so if you don't see yours just be positive it's coming your way. Good luck to us all on our next level 🙏🙏
