Biometrics Interview Re-scheduling Dilemma

[gyselle 4]

Hi all,

I recieved my biometrics interview for the 24/1.

Unfortunately, I am in New York for the month of January for work.

I have a small window of 27/1 - 29/1 where I'll be in San Francisco (where I reside, where my appointment is).

After that, I'll be travelling abroad for work for 13 weeks and the time I arrive back cuts it close to where my 2 year green card will expire. What should I do?

1. Can I walk into the NY office and request that I do my biometrics appointment there?

2. Can I apply for a new appoinment, when I return from abroad? If I get the letter before 29/1, I will do a biometrics walk-in in San Francisco

The travel is all for work and is non-negotiable. It's all project-based and client based etc. So those dates cannot be moved.

What should I do?

Cheers,

Venetia

I did an early walk-in in Atlanta for my biometrics. I told the guard on the door that I would be in Colorado on the day of my appointment. He told me that I could have gone into an office in Colorado if I had wanted to. He said I could have had my biometrics done at any office in the US.

Thank you very much!

We've sent in a notice asking to reschedule it to XX dates onwards.

I'm going to try and take the copy of the appointment letter into New York USCIS and see if it works.

If it doesnt..at least I have a back-up.

I am not sure if you can walk in after requesting a reschedule. They would need the original Biometric letter along with the Green Card and NOA1 letter and a valid photo ID. But it doesn't hurt trying. Let's know how it goes.
