Hi y'all,

For those who will be having their Biometrics in Boston, just want to share my experience: be prepared to wait. It is true that here are appointment times, but it still mostly works on a first come-first served basis. It took me an hour and a half to finish the whole thing (and this after being 30 mins early.) And then when my appointment time came close, even more people started coming in. Boy, was I glad I came early (since I had to take the T!)

The actual taking of the prints, photo, and signature took only about 15 or 20 minutes. Most of the wait time was because of the queue.

Anyway, my advice is to plan ahead. Come a little early if you need to.

Oh, and, no hats allowed either. (Yes, had to ask for anyone else's curiosity. :))
