Hi,
My husband is on a EB-3 category, with PD Mar 2005.
We received a request for biometrics BUT we haven't even received a notice for I-140 or I-485,
or the AP or EAD documents...nothing.
What does this mean? Can somebody please enlighten me? ;)
From I've read, it basically doesn't mean anything...since they can keep asking you to
do the biometrics 2 or X years from now, when your I-140 gets approved or when they decide that
you should spend time and money again on this....
Any feedback would be great!
Thanks!!

Biometrics are related to I485 NOT I140. I believe that they are also required for the EAD but I may be wrong as I never applied for it. Fingerprints can, as you rightly say, "run out" of validity
Don't think it means anything apart from the fact that you are in the system. Remember that the I140 receipt notice will go to your husband's employer only as it is their petition. You/your lawyer should get a I485 notice

Look for the receipt number on the FP request notice, which is your I-485 receipt number

You don't need to be concerned at all, just be glad that the USCIS is taking the initial steps to have all your info in place by the time your PD is current. What it means (biometrics notice) is that your I485 application was received, processed and there is a service center near you with not a large number of applicants that's going to take care of phase one in the process. It's possible that soon you'll receive your AP and EAD approvals if you requested them (That's my case, filed on Aug 13).
From now on just relax and wait for the October 2008 bulletin to see what the retrogression date is by then. Enjoy a good glass of wine in the meantime.
