Hello
I am an Indian citizen working and residing in US.
My AOR was JAN 26 and got my biometric request letter on march 8.

Currently I am in India on vacation for a few weeks .

My question is
- can I provide my biometrics in India ? Reading online it looks like I can but wanted to confirm if anyone has done it .

- more importantly, would providing biometrics in India , which is not my primary country of residence , impact the speed of overall PR approval process ? Appreciate if anyone can share any personal experience .

- another question is : would the remaining processes in EE application like background check (IP1, IP2,etc ) are kept on hold until I provide biometrics or these go on without waiting for my biometrics ?

Thanks

Hello,

I am in similar boat. Got the biometric request but spouse is in India for a couple of weeks. Paid the biometrics fee while submitting the application. Did you complete biometric in India? If yes, can you please share how to do that?

Thank you.
 
We waited for return to US and submitted our biometrics in US itself. It was within 30 days, so there was no need to extend.
