Just back from doing fingerprints at the Manchester NH office (actually in Bedford).
The appointment was for next week (10/18/2011) but that wasn’t good for us so we went in today at 11am hoping that they would accept a walk in. Its my first time in their new office which even has a room for the oath and ceremonies!
Nobody was waiting so they let us straight in and did the fingerprints on the spot. It was very easy, efficient and courteous. I’m not used to that from USCIS!
Now waiting for the interview notification but if they carry on with that sort of efficiency then this process might be completed a lot sooner than I thought!
