CITY: Philadelphia - Drummond Road

Successful. No questions asked.

I walked in with my appointment letter and asked if I could do a walk in as my parents were arriving that day. The guard told me no but she would call and check if they could see me as nobody was waiting. I was in and out within around 15 minutes. We risked it and it paid off. We went in at 11am on a Wednesday. Seemed pretty quiet all round.

My appointment was for the 7th of August but I had my biometrics done July 25th.

I rarely saw anybody was turned back.

I feel its great idea to do walk-in as it speed up your EAD though not much for your GC.

But as long as its' making your processing quicker, why not.

May GOD bless All !

I live in Maryland and from looking at the biometric service centers for maryland, they are all over 1 hour, closer to 2 hours from me. However, Alexandria, VA is just over the bridge, about 30 minutes away. I wonder if that would be allowed?

That's where they may send you. It supposed to be the closest office.

Hello everyone! awesome thread, I've been looking through visajourney for the past month. I just got my ASC Appointment Notice today(8/20/2012). the notice date is 8/15/2012, and they schedule my

appointment on 9/05/2012. I live in Raleigh NC, the office is located in Durham(about 22min drive with traffic according to google maps I hope!). I was wondering how early should I show up..my

schedule is extremely tight, and I don't drive(my wife is taking me), so she's planning on taking the day off work that day. the only other day that we can go during the week is monday.

thanks

I would like to add that the appointment is for case type I-485 and I-765 code: 3

I went today to USCIS office in Cleveland, Ohio. My appointment was scheduled for 11/06 but I had no issues having it done today. Te security guard in the building didn't ask any questions, didn't even want to see my appointment letter. The staff was very friendly, I don't think they even checked the date on the notice. I was out in 15 min!
