Hi there VJ-peeps,

I have an appointment to get my biometrics done at the Brooklyn USCIS loction on April 14th, and was wondering if anyone here has experience with that office and knows if they take walk-ins? Their info website doesn't state walk-in hours. Anyone here who has dealt with this location / tried a walk-in?

Yes, I know. I could just wait.. but I want that EAD! :yes:

We did a walk in there. We were scheduled for late March, but went in a few weeks ago on a Wed. Good luck!

Ooo, great. What time did you go? Do you know if they have specific walk-in times, or did you just.. Well, walk in :D And also, did you have to wait around for long? I intern 9am to 5pm so I need to time it well so that I preferably wouldn't have to spend all day there..

We got there just a little before it opened. Not too many people were there and the guard did check to see if they would take walk-in's before letting us in. In and out in 15 minutes. Painless!
