Just a little update:

I went for biometrics this morning in Fort Smith, AR. My appointment was at 9 AM. It took me a total of 45 minutes to drive there, take bio and drive back home. I was in the office may-be 5-8 minutes. The staff was super friendly, and no line - I guess it pays off to get there early.

Now the wait for the card begins.
