What to do after the Biometrics Appointment?

Recommended Posts

Hello Everyone! First off sorry if this question has been asked before on here but I went today to my Biometrics appointment and surprisingly it was really fast. After I was done , I asked one of the workers what I had to do after and she just said "you're done." Im just wondering what happens after the Biometric appointment? I read that you have to check your case online daily to see how it goes and that you will get something in the mail or your email? and does anyone know how long this takes on average? Im sorry if Im asking to much questions :huh: , Im just trying to be sure.

Best of luck to everyone! :D

After you're done with the Biometrics, the FBI will run a criminal record check and send the results to USCIS. After USCIS gets the check, an adjudicator will look over your case and do a background check and look at the evidence you submitted.

If everything is fine, you will be approved and your EAD will go into production.

If the adjudicator wants to see extra evidence, you will be sent an RFE (Request For Evidence) that will list what evidence the adjudicator wants you to send in.

This can take anywhere between 1-3 weeks.

You can check the status of your case here https://egov.uscis.g...d/CaseStatus.do

You can also sign up for Case Updates, which will notify you by e-mail or text of when there is an update to your case.
