My wife (K1 doing AOS) has her Biometrics appt in 10 days. Do we need to bring anything to this, other than a copy of everything we've already submitted (and the AOS/EAD/AP NOAs) - things like passport photos, medical forms, etc. etc.? I've checked the VJ guides, but there's not much written about the biometrics step - maybe it's just a fingerprinting and nothing more?

I've read mr4422's story on his wife's biometrics meeting... anyone have anything different take place, or a need to bring anything more than he mentions?

Thanks!

Don't need to take anything but the appointment letter and some form of ID. Biometrics is just where they take your fingerprints and a photograph. Whenever we have been to have them done, it is a lot of waiting for something that takes two minutes.

Our journey started in 2001 and it's still not over. It's been a rollercoaster ride all the way! Let me off - I wanna be sick!

Just to close out the thread - it was as easy as responders posted.

We had to show an ID, and the NOA appointment letter. We needed her passport to verify her A#.

Nothing additional was required.

Thanks!
