   Answered October 17, 2012 10:05. You should be very proud of your daughter. It has been slightly more than 2 weeks since your daughter's biometrics. That is not very long, at all, for the USCIS to render a decision. The fact that your daughter has not yet heard from the USCIS is not a bad sign. Be ask her to be patient. Hope this helps.

You should retain an attorney to review all the facts specific to your case in order to receive advise specific to your case. The statement above does not create an attorney/client relationship. Answers on Avvo can only be general ones, as specific answers would require knowledge of all the facts. As such, they may or may not apply to the question. less

   This is not legal advice. No attorney client relationship exists between us.
