Re: Woohoo! Notice of removal of conditional basis...

How Long?

I had my biometrics done on July 11th and since then I have heard nothing. The online status for my receipt number is "Initial Review".

Is this normal?

Sorry if I am being paranoid.

Biometrics done....

I assume I just sit tight and wait on the USCIS to do their thing and when they need something they will let me know?
