Biometrics in Bad Weather

Good Morning

 

So I live in a state very prone to snow storms and my application support center is 400 miles away. I plan on leaving with plenty of time to my appointment (several hours more than required to get there if all goes to plan), but I cannot rule out getting stuck in a snowstorm in one of the towns en route.

 

I don't forsee it delaying me more than a few hours before I could get on the road, if a storm did roll in.

 

In the event the weather caused me to be a couple of hours late (but the same business day) would this be an issue?

 

The reason I hesitate to reschedule is that any possible rescheduled biometrics may too be effected by snow storms, weather really just is random up here.

 You have to cross three high passes to get to the state capital and they're prone to short term closures for snow until mid spring... So a reschedule would just be rolling the dice again.

 

Thanks for the advice.

Probably not an issue at all......

The people working there understand the weather. I’ve known people on here to report they completely missed their appointment and showed up days later with no issues.

Even USCIS employees are occasionally reasonable :)
