ツ alejandriiukz ㋡ 41 Posted August 31, 2012 Can anybody please tell me what types of ID's I can take to the biometric appointment to proof my identity? I would highly appreciate it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoseG 383 Posted August 31, 2012 You MUST bring the following materials to your biometrics appointment, or processing of your Form I-765 will NOT be completed at your scheduled time: Biometrics appointment notice. Photo Identification. Acceptable kinds of photo identification are: Passport or national photo identification issued by your country, or Driver’s license, or State-issued photo identification card. http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextchannel=9059d9808bcbd010VgnVCM100000d1f1d6a1RCRD&vgnextoid=b3be194d3e88d010VgnVCM10000048f3d6a1RCRD 1 linda2305 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ツ alejandriiukz ㋡ 41 Posted September 1, 2012 it does not state if the passport has to be valid or not so? hummm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoseG 383 Posted September 1, 2012 I don't think it has to be valid, but it also has to have a somewhat recent picture of yourself. I'm not sure they will accept a passport with a child photo of yourself. Do you have a matricula consular? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ツ alejandriiukz ㋡ 41 Posted September 2, 2012 Nope I do not have a matricula consular I have the passport and my visa from when I was 9 >.< I look exaclty the same '.' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aled 118 Posted September 2, 2012 Did you already get your biometric appointment Ale? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ツ alejandriiukz ㋡ 41 Posted September 2, 2012 Nope but I wanna know in case I need a passport I will have time to go get it renewd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoseG 383 Posted September 2, 2012 You don't necessarily need a passport. The Matricula consular will also work. I suggest you get a passport or Matricula because I'm not sure if your passport or visa from when you were 9 will be accepted for the Biometrics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ツ alejandriiukz ㋡ 41 Posted September 3, 2012 well I will call USCIS to see if there are other options because I do not have the money to go all the way to the consular its 6 hours away >.< thanks anyways Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoseG 383 Posted September 3, 2012 Yeah, give them a call and ask them if what you have is okay for the Biometrics. If they say that you need something recent, call the consulate. There is a number that you have to dial to make an appointment, you can ask them if they have any mobile locations available. The consulate was going to be setting up mobile locations to help out the people that are applying for deferred action. That's where I got my matricula, they had everything set up inside a furniture store and it was much faster than the permanent location. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rawf 336 Posted September 3, 2012 I called the consulate in NY and they gave me an appointment to get an emergency passport on October 11th.. they said there was no available spots open any sooner. This is sad, I wonder why they call it emergency passport when it takes over 2 months to get an appointment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ツ alejandriiukz ㋡ 41 Posted September 3, 2012 Oh my and they are already giving out the biometrics appointment and I heard that if you miss it you get rejected exactly what I needed >.< Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoseG 383 Posted September 3, 2012 I'm sure you can call them and ask them to postpone the appointment if you need to. I called the consulate in NY and they gave me an appointment to get an emergency passport on October 11th.. they said there was no available spots open any sooner. This is sad, I wonder why they call it emergency passport when it takes over 2 months to get an appointment. Yeah, Passports take longer to obtain. That's why I got my matricula consular instead, you can also use it for the Biometrics appointment. I got my appointment 3 days later and got it the same day, it only took about an hour and a half.

JoseG 383 Posted September 5, 2012 Rawf, why does your signature say you received the acceptance letter on September 9? 1 ツ alejandriiukz ㋡ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tdschool 2 Posted September 5, 2012 I have a question. Will my old ID work for the biometrics if it was issued long time ago and expired like 10 years ago. My picture there is nothing like I look today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
