Hello VJers!

I just got the letter with biometrics appointment at the Chicago ASC on 4853 North Broadway.

My appointment is scheduled in about a month from now (June 16), and I was thinking of doing an early-walk in.

I was wondering if anyone has had biometrics performed at this particular office and what your experience was (early walk-in allowed/denied).

A would appreciate your feedback and good luck to everyone in their journey!

Hello everyone!

In case somebody else was wondering about walk-ins in this specific location, it is possible. Yet, I showed up last friday (05/25) and was turned down. I explained that I can't make it on the scheduled date and they told me to come on Tuesday. I'm not sure if it will speed up the process but it feels good to be done with biometrics.

Thank you everyone for your support and good luck!
