Hi everyone, most of the topics that I have read were all about visas other than IR-5 Parent of a US Citizen. I am worried because my parents are set for a visa interview in Manila this coming Feb. 25, 2025 but then the earliest biometric appointment I got for them is March 11, 2025 which is days after their scheduled visa interview. I called customer service and I was advised to keep the visa interview date and enclose biometric appointment and confirmation letter during the interview, and they will just give them instruction once they are inside. I asked them what will be the consequences if they don’t get fingerprinted before the interview. They just told me that the US Embassy will give my parents instruction. I am so worried, my parents live in eastern visayas, I don’t want them to go back to the U.S. Embassy because of that. I don’t want to reschedule the visa interview, and I have been waiting for years already. I don’t want them to stay too long in Manila because we have no relatives there plus the expenses that will be incurred if they stay for days or if they get denied or refused because of that.
What will happen if they don’t get their biometric done before the visa interview. Will they be denied or refused? I was strongly advised by the call center agent to keep the scheduled visa interview appointment.
Anyone can answer my questions?
Thanks.
