Hello Everyone
Has anyone gone for their Finger-printing in Oakland, CA. I have my Finger-printing date scheduled for Aug 22nd, 2001. Since my company is in a pretty shaky state, and layoffs can happen any time, I am trying to gain a few days by going earlier than my scheduled date.

Has anyone done this (going there almost a month before the appointment date) in Oakland, CA? Or anywhere else!! If yes, what was your experience? A lot of my friends are telling me that no one cares over there! They don\'t even look at the appointment date.

My fear is that if I go for the FP almost a month before the actual date, then INS, on receiving my Finger prints, might get confused as to how can they receive Finger prints almost a month before they are supposed to get it. I don\'t want to create confusion and risk delaying my case to gain a month. Am I being too paranoid?

Thanks
Madhavi

I don\'t think your FP will be affected by your employment issues.
Unless they have specifically asked for an employment letter??

Madhavi,

Yes, You can do your FP at an earlier date than the one mentioned in FP notice. It is does not affect your I-485 processing .. We did our FP 1 week earlier ..
Good Luck
