Fingerprints failed twice-Police Clearance Question

[Soulmates513 3]

Hi All, Well I had a 2nd fingerprinting for Biometrics and it too failed. I tried the Corn Huskers Lotion the week prior etc but it didn't help me at all. I didn't have time to order the ridge builder solution that may have helped. They told me to just wait for instructions as to what's next which is a Police Clearance. QUESTION: I had my RCMP clearance for the original K-1 on Sept 1, 2011 and moved here only 3 months later in December 2011. Having said that.......... will I be asked for another RCMP Clearance from Canada? I've seen a recent thread that it's taking 10 weeks by mail to request this. Or will I simply go to the State Police here in the U.S. for a police clearance? Any help anyone can give me would be much appreciated. I have elderly parents in Canada with failing health and I am wanting to go for a visit ASAP and my early travel rights and work visa are being held up because of my not being able to get fingerprints. Thanks all.

I can't help with info about your police clearances but just wanted to tell you that your advance parole does not require you to have your biometrics completed. I am not sure when you applied for AOS since your timeline isn't updated, but my AP took about a month to get. Once you get that you can travel back and forth if necessary.
