Biometrics appointment in the US

[Davidcheung1030]

Anyone had experience scheduling an biometric appointment through US ASCs? I can’t find the website on USCIS that let me schedule an appointment for biometrics.

Biometrics collection outside Canada
If you can’t give your biometrics due to a location closure near you or a service disruption, don’t go to another biometrics collection service unless we tell you to. This includes

• Canadian ports of entry
• other international biometrics collection locations, like a visa application centre (VAC)

If you have a biometrics appointment scheduled

• at a VAC, the VAC will notify you if your appointment is cancelled
• at a US Application Support Center (ASC), all ASCs are closed until further notice

When biometrics collection resumes, you’ll have to make a new appointment at a VAC or ASC when they start collecting biometrics again. You won’t need a new BIL.

How to find out when biometrics collection resumes
Keep visiting canada.ca/biometrics for updates on when biometrics collection will start again.

Asc in the US is set to reopen on 13 July for some places. Not sure if Canadian UK applicants are able to make any appointments(I highly doubt it). They are most likely going to prioritize US immigration applicants.
As for VAC in NY and LA. I bet 69 bucks that they won’t open by the end of this year.

Which location are you at? I am also waiting for ASC to open, at my location(Minneapolis) it will be open on July,20th. My employer will send the instruction on how to book the appointment next week. I did get this below URL from someone https://my.uscis.gov/appointmentscheduler-appointment/ca/en/office-search, it seems to be not working. Can you please post here when you book the appointment? I will do the same

I booked too yesterday but it doesn’t look legit, when I try to find my appointment using IRCC number it shows random location. I think some live testing going on.

I try with random IRCC number #11111111111 today and it shows a ASC location at NY Buffalo. I booked my appointment on Friday when the system was back at that specific time. Got my confirmation printed, but I check today with my IRCC it shows some random location again. Not quite sure if my confirmation is valid. I think the system needs to be back by Monday 13th July.

Someone posted on fb today:
Just finished my Biometrics at USCIS ASC - Brooklyn, New York. Appnt was at 11 AM - reached at 10:30 AM and was done by 10:40 AM. Not a single person was present. Was only asked to provide Passport, USCIS appnt letter and Canada Biometrics letter. Very good experience and went smoothly.
