Early 2nd FP Tips:

Don't say that you have come 'early'..unless they notice and ask so. If questioned, have a fitting reply, such as an Interview on that day, Conference, etc, But be NICE.

Just go in when there isn't much of a crowd..Dont go sharp 8am.

I know few who did early at Newark..
Good Luck

Hope this helps.

I received my 2nd FP notice yesterday and was due to show up 8/21.

I went this morning at 8am (Santa Ana, CA).

Nobody noticed anything, did my re-printing in 30 min.

There were just 3 people in front of me.


Hope this helps!

airDD, is this the first reply from BCIS to you?
I noticed you're Nov RD, did FP in Feb. So you must be very happy right now.

I'm still waiting for the damn 2nd fp notice.

How can one go for early FP then schedule Date ?

 

[dengdeng]

airDD, of course you won't get REF.

Yes, I think you're fine. You should be expecting an approval in 6-8 weeks.

Did you do electronic fingerprints or the old fashion ones?
Maybe they can retrieve the electronic ones for a new FBI check. Just wondering.
