I had my biometrics done today in Manhattan for my citizenship application. It was quick/easy - I was in and out of the building in <30 minutes.

 

One question: afterwards I realized the person only took my the fingerprints of my right hand (4 fingers). Is this because they already have my full set of fingerprints from when I applied for a green card? And the right hand method was just to confirm I am the same person as before?!

 

After the appointment my online case estimated completion time changed from March 2019 to January 2019. Is there a chance that after the background check is complete the estimated case completion time will change again?

Sorry just re-reading this. Do you mean the part about only the right hand being finger printed or the adjustment of the case completion time?

Yes the finger prints

Thank You.

 

I saw your response about your own case in the FL thread. After you did the biometrics, how long did it take for your online account to show an updated status? Mine says "we have scheduled your biometrics appointment"
