When do they take fingerprints?

Hello all,

My fiancee is going for her K1 visa interview at the Moscow embassy soon. She works in embroidery and so has callouses on her hands. She is worried that she will be rejected because they can't fingerprint her at the K1 interview. So at what stage do they take fingerprints?

Thanks, Ryan

Being unable to get a standard fingerprint won't be a problem, just an annoyance.

They will print one finger at the interview. They may or may not take her fingerprints at the POE and they will take them again for the AOS biometrics.

In London they print 3 (I think?) fingers and thumbs (electronically), so it may vary by Embassy.
