Retaking the fingerprinting?

[humble]

Any idea why at times you get a letter that states fingerprinting nees to be retaken? Could it be that the first one isnt as accurate as it should have been? Just receive another letter after 2 weeks of taking the 1st one.Thanks for your ideas in advance.

Don't sweat the small stuff....most likely the first set wasn't clear enough and they need to capture a better clearer set of prints.

While we were waiting at the entrance of the ASC to get our prints taken, the receptionist looked at the hands of the person in front of us and said something like "your prints won't be good -- go home and use hand cream everyday for a week and come back". Then she put a note on his NOA. The prints don't always work.

It shouldn't slow you down very much (if at all). In the early going, everything (prints, namecheck, etc) seems to go in parallel. (of course I really don't know anything other than what I've observed in the past year).

Don't worry. But, before you leave, make sure that the person who's taking your prints tells you that they are good and get the supervisor to check them out as well.

It happened to me; I have very bad prints so I had to go twice. The second time the prints looked pretty bad to me, but they were accepted and processed the same day by FBI.

I thought its because of something else. Thanks it made me feel better...i remember the person who did it making a comment on how dry my skin is and guessed if I work in a healthcare and told him I do and that i wash my hands every half hour or so if needed. thanks again.
