I had my biometrics taken today. It took a while, lady taking my fingerprints had to scan each finger a couple of times. I got a little freaked out when I saw "Match warning" signs on the screen, but I did some research and I don't think there should be a problem. I hope so! How did you gyus do today?

Just came home from our biometrics (we had to travel 2 hours for it). We got there 45 minutes early and was processed straight away without any issues. There were 2 other folks there with us. The fingerprinting was fine - I didn't see any "Match Warning" messages, but I probably just didn't pay attention to where that would have been. It was basically the same fingerprinting process they did when I got my police check back in Australia - that's the standard way of doing it. And the USCIS lady was very nice.

Now here's hoping for a speedy approval! USCIS lady said it could take 30 to 90 days for my EAD - hopefully it gets here SOONER!

How did everybody else go?

We had several things today and the Biometrics went the smoothest and was the most hassle free out of all of them. Glad its done!

I guess it's normal.. I had mine taken earlier this month and the guy did the same thing - scanned each finger a few times. I got freaked out by the "matching warnings" myself. But then I figured it was ok.

I believe that now, after my biometrics, is time for to relax and just check USCIS once in a while...because what can happen to me in the next weeks is:

to be transfered or not (that 2 options are ok...no big deal actually, as I keep reading that the interview is very nice)

and

to receive an RFE or not (that is just a little more paper work but don't really delay the process...)

There is not much I can do to make it faster...

Very good weekend to every AOS filer...

:)

I agree with this. I'm not much of an online checker for touches at all. It messed with my head during the K-1 process I'm not gonna allow it to stress me out during AOS too :D

Hi, this is the link to what I posted after walk-in biometrics.

http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...t&p=1844126

If office is close to your home, maybe worth to try. Since it's no guarantee ;) Some people succeeded, but seems like this method does not speed up our cases... Good thing is, that I don't have to be too much careful about skin-care! :hehe:
