Hi everyone, my status went form CRP to "Case Was Updated To Show Fingerprints Were Taken" from nowhere, did this happened to any of you? does it have any significant meaning or just a glitch in the system? or maybe no meaning at all???

VAWA APPROVED WHAT IS NEXT ?

Hello, my VAWA got approved January 9 th, 34 months long wait. I got only EAD no advance parole with it. Applied for I-485 march last year, as of now my status is “Case was updated to show fingerprints were taken” and this update was 200 days ago. Please if somebody can guide me of what to expect will be thankful. I don’t know how accurate this app is but it says on my I-131 and and i765 that I am 1st out the people that applied with similar receipt dates. Also on this app on my I-485 when I paid for deeper analysis shows I am on 17 th position also based on the time frames with similar cases , if somebody got similar experience with the same situation, will be happy to chat about it. Thank you, MB
