Tampa Biometrics Experience

Recommended Posts

My wife and daughter had their biometrics today in Tampa. They were scheduled for 1PM, we arrived at 12:30. It wasn't busy and everyone was very nice. They had to file out some basic paperwork, then we saw the receptionist. Who directed them to a different part of the large room for waiting, I had to wait in the general waiting area. Whole process took about 30 minutes, we were out by 1PM.

Quick and painless!
