Nov 10, 2014 - Riverside, CA - Early walk-in biometrics unsuccessful. The location is exactly as per instructions behind the Coco's restaurant in a small one storey outdoor mall. The sign just says "Application Support Center." Everything looked very run down. Arrived a few minutes after they opened. There were already people milling about outside and people sitting down inside. No queue. There was a guard at a table immediately on the left as soon as I walked in. I showed her my appointment letter and asked if it was possible to do a walk-in. I was told, "No, you must come back on your date." Guard was firm and unfriendly. Didn't help that the woman in front of me was arguing with another member of staff about her appt date. Nov 17, 2014 - Riverside, CA - Original Biometrics Appointment Date (12 noon) successful Arrived around 11.40am. Same guard. Seemed nicer this time. Much busier than last week's early Monday morning. Guard told everyone who had a 12 noon appointment to join the queue running down the aisle between the chairs in first small waiting area facing the front of the building. There were about 5 people in front of me. When I got to the guard, she asked for my appointment letter and picture ID - I showed my military ID, which had my married name on it. As a precaution I'd also brought my NOA1 receipts, SSN card, marriage certificate, UK passport and birth certificate, but didn't need them. The guard asked previous people in the queue to show their hands so that she could check that their biometrics could be done without any problems, but she didn't ask me. She handed me a clipboard with a form, my ID and appointment letter clipped to it and asked me to fill in my details in the white space in the top half of the form (bottom shaded half was for internal use). The form asked for: full name, date of birth, application numbers (use the ones that are on your appointment letter above the bar codes), A# (alien number), SSN if no A# number, height (ft and inches), weight (pounds), hair colour, eye colour, telephone number. Surprisingly, no email address requested on the form. I didn't bring a bag but noticed that, despite there being a tray on her desk, similar to the ones at airport security, the guard did not check anyone's bags. And there were also a few people walking around with their mobile phones in their hand. As an aside, there were male and female restrooms to the right of the waiting area, but I didn't use them, so can't say much about them other than they were there and available to use. Once I'd filled out my form, I waited in line at a desk to the right of the waiting area. There were a couple of people in front of me. The clerk at the desk checked my form and stamped my appointment letter in red ink so that the biometrics technician could initial and date the form to confirm that I'd completed the biometrics. While she was checking my details, she made small talk and asked if my husband is active duty. I was then directed to a second small waiting area. At the front of the second waiting area, there was a line of booths. There were four biometrics booths with 2 terminals per booth. Only four biometrics technicians working that day. Waited about 20 minutes for my number to be shown/called. There were about 15 people ahead of me, based on my ticket number (549). When my number was called by a technician, I followed her to her workstation. She squirted some solution (hand sanitizer, I think) onto my hands and asked me to rub it into both hands on both sides. Then she asked me to stand to her right and to check the information on the screen was correct as she filled in some of the details on the form. For UK applicants, they use "UN" for the UK and not "UK," as that would be Ukraine. She then asked me to place my right hand on the small biometrics panel. She scanned one finger at a time and then did the same with my left hand. I asked her what the red areas on my fingerprints meant on the screen and she told me that having too many red areas or a large area of red could mean that the fingerprint scan is rejected. Unfortunately, she had to scan my fingers multiple times because quite a few were rejected. For those who haven't had biometric digital fingerprints taken, it is not the same as ink fingerprints or even the same as the ones at the airport or K-1 interview (London). Your fingers are scanned one at a time and you must try to relax and let the technician roll and manipulate your finger herself/himself. There is also a box on the top right-hand corner of the screen that turns red and says "reject" if the fingerprint is not acceptable. It turns green and says "pass" if the fingerprint is okay. After about 10-15 minutes, we managed to get all my fingerprints to "pass." The technician then asked me to take a seat against the wall and she counted to three then took my photo. She didn't give me a chance to okay it, but I took a quick look on the screen and thankfully it was fine. She then returned my appointment form back after she'd initialed it and also gave me a yellow customer comments slip to fill in. She said that I must keep the white paper and fill in the yellow paper before putting it in the box at the front of the second waiting area (next to another exit). I thanked her then filled out the comments form and left. Took about 50 minutes altogether from entering to leaving the building.	2014-11-18
