My wife and I got our FP appointments for Feb. 9th. My appt. was for 10 AM and hers was for 11:00 AM. We were there by 9:30.
The guard took our FP notice, GC and gave us a little form to fill out. Nothing really of substance to fill out in that form (name, case number, SSN, etc.). Then we were given a number and asked to wait.
The waiting area had people there for EAD cards (and what not). But once they ran out of one type of people who needed attention (no more EAD folks were waiting), they would take other applicants. At one point, the number moved from 811 to 816 in like 2 minutes!!
Net net was that we were both done by 10:30! The FP process itself was relatively simple - first all four fore fingers were taken. Then each individual finger was scanned. If the individual scan did not match against the original four, the system kicked out an error and the technician scanned that finger again.
The whole experience was very painless. The staff were super courteous, friendly and efficient. Hopefully the rest of the process is as easy as this one was!!
