SUNNYCALIFORNIAN, Did you bring your original appointment notice? Did they ask you why you came early than scheduled?

Yes, I brought my original appointment notice. I think that's a must. Then I walked in to the security officer at the front booth, just said "hi and good morning", showed the original document to the security officer at the entrance, and he just looked at it, and he said to me: "you are a bit early to your appointment, smiled and he said it was fine, that he could fit me in." I just said: "Thank you very much" and filled-out the paperwork, and waited for my turn. I didn't say anything else, nor did he ask me anything. I think it's just luck, so Good luck!!

Good luck!!! Although from what I know, I don't see an advantage to do a walk-in vs waiting for your scheduled date. I did the walk-in because I was sure I wasn't going to make it to my scheduled appointment. (I have plans to travel those dates.)

Oh really? Why is that? I thought that if you got your biometrics done early, before your scheduled appointment, that it would speed-up your application process. :/

I have no clue if speeds-up the application process or not. I've never heard of that before, but it could be.

I don't think it does....It depends on the number of applications ahead of yours.....so basically even if you finger print before someone whose application is ahead of yours, their case will still have precedence over yours...I could be wrong though!
