I have no problem sending the whole amount... But if they are using my old fingerprints, should I send the money order for less?!
Each time this is guessing game. Last time, I sent my application super early to avoid the August 8 fiasco... that was a guessing game into itself.

ANYONE sent their documents within the last... 20 days??

Does that entitle a refund for biometric fees.
It's a scam to begin with since your biometrics
Don't change

My sister and I sent our applications yesterday and they should arrive by later today. I believe all the official notice says that in-person services are suspended, not that they were completely shut down.




Exactly. This was the conclusion that immediately came to me yesterday when I saw this announcement.:|

Nah, mainly because there's 2 parts to biometrics:
1. Actual fingerprinting
2. FBI background check

While this doesn't come up very often (and really only comes up in VAWA cases), a stamped biometrics sheet is enough evidence to prove that you had an FBI background check done. When I submitted mine they basically sent me a notice that they have my biometrics and background check on file and did not request any further evidence of non-criminality.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services today announced that it will reuse previously submitted biometrics in order to process valid Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization, extension requests due to the temporary closure of Application Support Centers (ASC) to the public in response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. This announcement is consistent with existing USCIS authorities regarding the agency’s ability to reuse previously submitted biometrics.

Applicants who had an appointment scheduled with an ASC on or after the March 18 closure or has filed an I-765 extension will have their application processed using previously submitted biometrics. This will remain in effect until ASCs are open for appointments to the public.

This has already been mentioned in another post. Mod feel free to move or delete.

Are we sure this will apply for DACA I-765 applications? It explicitly says I-765 extension requests and DACA peeps don't qualify for EAD extensions....

Peep the date on your link, it's not relevant to the current situation.

Ah yeah, totally didn't see the date. I'm still skeptical though. Back in 2016 when there were massive DACA delays, I remember clearly that people were trying to see if we qualified for EAD extensions and we didn't.
