L1_to_H1 Posted December 13, 2013 Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 Hello, My parent will be appearing for visitor visa interview next week. The fingerprint reader that is used for passports in India could not read my mother's finger print. It read 3 fingers only. I was wondering if that's going to be an issue with biometrics during visa interview . Is there a waiver for biometrics that can be obtained? There is no injury/cuts on the fingers its just that machine can not read it. Link to comment

And, I believe you know that there is finger print scanning at POE too. Link to comment

There is no paper/ink option or some other physical attribute which can substitute printing? Link to comment
