USCIS has created a new Lockbox Filing Location Updates page on their website to provide updates they make to lockbox filing locations, where immigration applications are mailed. The filing locations are periodically adjusted to balance incoming workload for timely processing. That means that even if your application was mailed to one location, it could end up being processed in a different one.

USCIS Suspends Biometrics Requirements For H, L and E Visa Spouses

Immigration court in San Francisco & San Jose, CA

Starting on May 17th, 2021, USCIS will suspend biometrics requirements for certain I-539 applicants, including H-4, L-2, and E-1, E-2, and E-3 visa applicants, for at least two years.

What does this mean for me?

This is good news! If you are filing a new H-4, L-2, E-1, E-2, or E-3 visa application, or you have an application currently pending and you do not receive your biometrics notice by May 17th, then you should not be required to appear for a biometrics appointment while your case is being processed. That means that your application should be approved sooner.
