Second fingerprinting notice - is this normal?
Hi,
It's been a while since I posted on the NG. I received a second fingerprinting notice in mail yeaterday. Now i'm wondering if this is normal, or there's something I should worry about? Here's some of my case history :
Filed AOS/EAD at charlotte, NC in Jan. 2003
Received NOA and A #
Received EAD
Received Fingerprinting Notice in apr 2003 - Gave fingerprints at BCIS - ASC in Virginia.
Received AP in July 2003
Wemoved to Dallas, TX after we received Ap. I went in person at Dallas District office to inform BCIS of our change of address, followed by sending AR-11 to London, KY. Also I wrote a letter to BCIS Charlotte requesting them to transfer my file at Dallas office.
Jan 2004 applieed for renwal of EAD.
Yesterday (Jan 31, 2004) - Received "Second" fingerprinting notice from Dallas District office.
My questions are:
Does this mean that my file has been transferred to Dallas?
Is is normal to get 2 fingerprinting appoinments if you move from one juridiction to another?
Is there something we should worry about - other than that they may screw up things while transferring the file?
When we moved we prepared for a long delay to receive AOS interview. Is the second fingerprinting noticec an indication of expecting AOS interviiew with in next 3-4 months?
Any ideas people?
Thankyou for reading.
Regards,
Janousek

Don't see why you should worry about it. Seems like Dallas is on top of things and your AOS is progressing. Go for the fingerprinting and wait for the appointment letter to arrive in the mail. In the interim get your documentation together so if there is not a long lead time, you are prepared.
