How late can I show up for my biometrics appointment? I'm scheduled for 10am and I don't think I can make it at that time. Will they still let me in and process my fingerprint after the scheduled time? My local office is in elizabeth, NJ.

My husband is scheduled a day after mine, can he come with me on my appointment date and get his processed the same day?

Can you do an early walk-in???? I would not chance being late. It is to their discretion, if they will take you. You might have to re-schedule.

The latest I can leave work is 830AM. I work night shift and no one can cover me the night I am working and it takes more than an hour to get to my 10AM appointment in NJ. I read from forums that the manager in that office is very strict and absolutely do not take walkins. Should I try to go to a different office? There's one in NY about 30mins away from my work place. If so, should I try to go there in NY at an earlier date and ask if they will take me?

You can do your biometrics at another location, as long as you have your letter that is fine.

Try an early one with your nearer biometrics location. Show up first thing with your letter and all ID. Be polite and ask, explaining your situation. Usually they're pretty reasonable and all IOs and techs in my experience appre
