n400 biometric appointment

[sparker42 7]

I was wondering my wife received her biometric appointment for n400 oddly they scheduled her for another state? We are out less than a month for this appointment Any suggestions?

a state that borders yours?

yes,  we are in Tennesee and our biometerics was in Atlanta Georgia but interview was in Nashville

 

and perhaps and other office has no openings or short staffed or not open yet

Good thoughts has anyone ever rescheduled?

I wonder if a person reschedules will they let you know before the appointment date? If not the person will have to go out their way to make the appointment.

Sometimes your zip code means your ASC falls under a neighboring state.

How long has she waited for the bio appointment? Does she mind waiting the same amount of time again? You don’t have control over the rescheduled date. What if it doesn’t suit you again?

I saw this late.  You can take to pretty much any ASC in any state.

I'm new here and hope I am doing this correctly. If not, please forgive me. I am in the process of filing for a tourist visa so I can travel to Nigeria and was told since I am under age 65 I must bring my documents to an office in person. I reside in Central Illinois so Atlanta is the closest Nigerian Embassy to me. So, are you saying that I might not need to go to Atlanta? Thank you.

Unfortunately your case, if I understand it correctly, is different: you are wanting to travelling to another country, in this Nigeria, so you would have to check with their embassy/consulate, which locations process tourist visas for visiting the country.

 

USCIS Application Support Centers (ASC) are places contracted by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services where legal residents of the US (not citizens like yourself) are scheduled to go to have their biometrics taken for applications such as removing conditions on conditional residency (I-751) or when someone wants to naturalize, ie. become a US citizen (N-400). The ASC people immigrants to the US are assigned to depends on the ZIP code where we/they live.

Okay, thank you.

FYI some ASCs do contract out for visa services  - my family had biometrics for UK visas done at the same one we did all our USCIS bios at https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/usa-apply-for-a-uk-visa/apply-for-a-uk-visa-in-the-usa -but the poster would need to confirm if ASCs do them for Nigeria too. If that’s the case I don’t think you get assigned to a particular one, I seem to recall we chose one. Of course it’s entirely possible that poster is just misunderstanding and ASCs have nothing to do with the Nigerian process.
