Biometrics

[Manchester_Man 0]

Hello everyone, I just received mt appointment notice to go and have my Fingerprints taken at the local Seattle field office which is great news. I do have an issue with the date and time and I need to see if I can schedule sooner...Has anyone ever requested this before and got a good result? Or will this push the date even further out?

Most places will let you do a walk in as long as you have an appointment letter.

Yes, I was just reading up about that. I think I'm going to try that method Monday. I have m Fingers Crossed as Seattle is a little bit of a drive for me. If by chance anyone has tried Walk-In at the Seattle office, please let me know if it worked!

Hi Manchester_Man,

No need to reschedule for an earlier biometrics appointment. Just to a "walk in" at a time when the local center is not busy and when you are available, and you should be ok then. Make sure you bring your biometrics letter with you, no matter which day you go, as they won't do your biometrics without it. And yes, just in case they ask, have a valid excuse/reason (and provide paperwork if need be) as to why you are going earlier than scheduled on the letter.

Likewise, last September I had to do a "walk-in biometrics" earlier than scheduled too for my I-751 at my local office in Buffalo NY, and didn't have any problems with it at all. For more detailed information about my successful walk-in biometrics experience, you can read about it in this VJ post that I wrote here:

Hope this helps. Good luck with the rest of your immigration journey too.

I'm hoping they'll take this walk-in. I wouldn't mind going on the date scheduled, but I have to make arrangements around other people to go anywhere as I don't drive and the only person who can take me is my Mother In-Law and she's a nurse, so it's kind of hard for her to get any time off. I'm hoping when I show up at that they'll understand. I'm planning on going Monday at 7am (As soon as they open) hopefully won''t be too busy.
