Today was me and my wife´s interview. They told us today our case was locked in the system. Meaning they could not issue the visa due to one person some how froze our case while asking the first set of questions. This sounds very strange. Later in the day they went ahead and conducted the interview. Asked the questions to both me and my wife.

Apploigized for not being able to issue the visa today. The man said that he wanted to approve the visa but could not because my wife could not get her finger prints, and they could not see our case. They said our documents looked good.

now my wife has to go again tommorw by her self again for finger prints. has anyone heard of this happening....

They even suggested to go ahead and pay the delievery fee for something. we did but they gave my wifes passport back until she returnes for finger prints tomorrow.

Yes I have heard of both the finger printing machine and the visa printing machine going down (at different times!) in the Dublin embassy. The vagaries of modern technology! Your wife should be fine tomorrow.
