Biometrics tips

[Clownies 2]

First of all, all you need is your appointment letter and an ID.

Then, make sure to know your height and weight in feet/inches and pounds. Those guys don't use metrics!

Then expect to have your fingers pulled and twisted and turned, all of them!

Don't forget to clean your fingernails!

Don't turn up too early, in our local office due to security they only let you in the building 15 minutes prior to your appt time.

You need a photo ID, passport is best

Also, those of us who are accident prone, may want to avoid using knives or other sharp objects close to the biometrics date. If you have any cuts or abrasions on your finger tips, then they will ask you to come back.

Furthermore, if you are married and have used your married name for AOS and EAD, then be sure to take your marriage certificate, if your passport is in your maiden name and you don't have another form of ID.

I think it's probably best to say each local office is different and for the best info try to get it from people who have been to that office. Of course, the specifics of what they do is the same everywhere.
