They scheduled it for June 15th (see my sig), but we're out of town that week so we're going to try to do a walk-in instead (if our local place accepts walk-ins). If not, we'll have to reschedule. I'm not sure how to go about doing that so I'll do a bit of research on here and update you as soon as I know what our next step is.

I don't know if your biometrics notice is the same, but it says "REQUEST FOR RESCHEDULING" on mine. You tick a box where it says "Please reschedule my appointment", make a copy of the notice and send the original to the address on the notice.

If you do that, you have to do it ASAP and before your original appointment. If you don't get a new notice with a new appointment BEFORE your original appt, then you have to go with the original one, otherwise your application will be considered abandoned (happened to one member recently).

Thanks. He went to the center today to see if they would take him as a walk-in, and of course they were really rude and said they don't do walk-ins. They took his form and are sending it back for him, which made me nervous (I'd rather have sent it back ourselves, but he already did it). I'm so worried our reschedule will be a million weeks later than our original appointment. :unsure:

That sucks. Did you guys make a copy of the notice before they took it, just in case? I hope they schedule him just after you get back from the honeymoon. :)

Yes, I've trained Tom well. :D

He made several copies before giving them the form. I hope so too. I'd hate for this to set us back weeks. It's so frustrating! He's only not been in Chicago for 5 business days since he's been here, and of course they pick one of those days to schedule him.

I did a walk-in for my biometrics today. Guy was lovely, was in and out in 10 minutes. I guess it just depends on the city - Spokane is tiny compared to Chicago.

Yay! Xx
