Official 2016 Renewal Thread - Page 30

What do you tell the bio metrics office if you want to walk in before your appt date ? My appt is next Monday and I only have Thursdays off.

Visit the office your appointment is scheduled for. Let them know you'd like to see if they are taking walk-ins. They'll tell you immediately if they have space that day or not. If they are unable to accommodate your walk-in, then be sure to reschedule your appointment and request the day off in advance. You were given plenty of advance notice, after all.

[quote=NotYetKnown;565331]There has been no mention of a renewal limit. I received a letter from USCIS reminding me that my DACA expires soon and that my renewal request must be submitted between the 150-120 expatriation window; I doubt that was an oversight.

I'll be sending my packet and check for renewal on 03/21, my 150th day before expiration. My DACA and EAD are set to expire on 08/17. This will be my second renewal. My initial approval was granted in 2012, first renewal in 2014 and second renewal request is in 2016.

It's difficult to only plan my life two years in advance. I'd like to settle down, start a family and purchase a home. But not knowing where I'll be two years from now just doesn't make it feasible to marry and attempt to secure a home loan. Do any of you feel similar to me, or have you guys ventured out and gotten married or even secured a ho

Am in the second renewal like you, was already married before the defferedd action was passed in 2012, we already establish credit and were able to buy a new car 2 yrs ago and last year we purchase our first house,I ve been here 23 yrs so am not afraid what would happened since am sure that I can fight for permanent resident if any situation in a future because I had been a good citizen, paying taxes and not getting goverment help to support my family of course that will be with the help of a good lawyer and knowing about mt rights. Hope it helps you in something

Congrats on getting the home!

Who was your lender and did you get a co-signer or were you approved under your status alone?

On form i-821D, section 5 it asks "Are you NOW or have you EVER been in removal proceedings. But under that there is a Note that states "The term "removal proceedings includes exclusion or deportation proceedings initiated before or after April 1, 1997".

I'm a little bit confused as to which to follow. The initial question or Are you NOW or EVER been in removal proceedings or the Note which states before April 1, 1997.

Thank you.

Has anyone been approved for the second time so far?

Nothing here yet.

Completed biometrics on May 6th, and case status still hasn't changed from "We mailed you your biometrics appointment letter"

Seems like everyone's app might be delayed this time. Makes me a bit antsy, since I got approved after just 2 months after I mailed in my app for my last renewal.

Do you guys think the delay could be due to the up coming Supreme Court ruling?

Warm wishes and best of luck to you in your second renewal. I hope this helps.
