Biometrics?

[Alex&Jen 20]

I have researched and I am still confused about the Biometrics. We have not received anything in the mail or through e-mail in regards to my husband having his biometrics done. However, I am reading that he will need to complete this process and pay for it. We already had his interview and waiting for the Dr. to send my husband's medical exam to the Embassy. We submitted every document required (except the medical exams, because the Dr. said he would the the medical exam). We have had our case expedited, and now since we are here at this point with our case being handled directly with Honduras, I feel like I have no idea what is going on. If anyone could guide me to the correct information on Biometrics that would be great!! I do not want there to be anything else that could hold up my husband from getting his visa. 

 

Thanks....much appreciated.

It depends on the embassy/consulate. For Tegucigalpa it isn't required before the interview: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Supplements/Supplements_by_Post/TGG-Tegucigalpa.html As a comparison, it's required before the interview in Mumbai: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Supplements/Supplements_by_Post/BMB-Mumbai.html

Phew....thank you so much!! But will we need to have the Biometrics completed at some point in the process?

Seems it would be during the interview appointment:

At least that's what the non-immigrant visa page has listed: https://www.ustraveldocs.com/hn/hn-niv-photoinfo.asp

So is the Biometrics basically the passport  photo he took in with him to the interview and the fingerprints he had done during the interview? 

Because we had his passport photo and before the interview began the lady told him to scan his fingers on a device.

Oh wow!!! Ok. that is great news. I was thinking we had to complete more paper work or Dr. appointments. So glad that was his biometrics. ...now if I can just figure out when the Dr. will send his medical exam to the Embassy and actually be able to communicate with someone, that would be amazing! It is a crazy feeling when everything goes silent once the case enters the Embassy of the country your spouse is coming from.
