Finished biometrics today at the Santa Ana, CA USCIS. I arrived at around 8:00AM, and there was already a pretty decent line ahead of me, but was able to finish the process and leave at 8:50AM (approx.). The biometrics took only 10 minutes, it was the line that took a while.

Tip: Definitely helps to moisturize your hands with lotion the night before or the morning of to make the fingerprint part of the biometrics process easier.

I tried that! Sigh. Two problems I have are a) a lot of deep ridges running vertically down my fingertips, and b) the skin on my middle fingers is so smooth they don't leave a very good impression, ever!

Still, the moisturizing helped to make everything a little better overall. :)

I have deep ridges too. I think there is a calculation involved in analyzing fingerprints so having deep ridges do not affect much. As long as your fingerprints appear with all details, you should be good.
