I filed for AOS at the NYC office in June. They forwarded my application to the MSC, and yesterday I received 3 NOAs - one for the I-130, one for the I-485, and one for the I-864.
On the I-485 NOA it says to call and schedule my fingerprinting appointment.... this was very unexpected to me as I thought I would be waiting at least 18 months to be scheduled for fingerprinting!
This all seems to be consistent with NYC forwarding applications to MSC to clear the backlog.... my EAD application was also forwarded and it was approved in just over 3 months.
Still no news on the AP though....!
Cheers

Stranger & stranger, just checked online status for my I-485 and it now says 30-90 days to process instead of 120-180 days! That is probably due to the fingerprinting. So even if you don't get your prints done until 8 Nov, hopefully everything will still be processed in record time by MSC.
