I was wondering if it is frowned upon to change the boimetrics date. We are going to be on vacation when they want me to go in and take it. I am sure it has been answered before but I wanted to make sure it will not cause problems with our visa journey.

Thanks Guys and girls :)

David and I met online December of 2006 and spent a year getting to know each other online and with visits! He proposed to me July 2007 onstage at my Favorite bands (candlebox) concert in Florida .We found out we were expecting a child January 31st sadly due to an ectopic pregnancy we lost the baby and almost lost me as well on February 8th. We then decided to get married if my long and drawn out divorce finalized before David was due to go back on April 13th

Your notice should have a box to check and return asking for a request for resheduling. It isn't a problem, or at least I have not seen anyone who had any problems rescheuduling. Have a nice vacation.

I thought that was the case but as you can understand, we all panic about these things :)

I was in the same boat so I walked into my local office on a Wednesday a full two weeks early and they took me no problem. Most offices have a walk in day ad it is usually Weds. (seems like some really busy ones don't, but it is hard to call and check. so I just went). This is waaaay faster than trying to re-schedule.

If your office is not to far away it might be work trying this. Apparently Weds. afternoons are the best. He also said I could try Sat. afternoon b/c they don't schedule as many appointments then. I was in and out in 15 minutes:) It didn't speed anything up for me in terms of approvals though!

I also had my biometrics done earlier than scheduled, without formally re-scheduling....I did mine on a Saturday morning....had to wait 1 hour before the IO showed up so he could approve it being done on a different date than the notice (there were signs saying appointments were necessary)....but it was worth it bc they had me scheduled for a Tuesday morning and I have to work on weekdays....
