USCIS Mobile Biometrics Collection in Remote Areas

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is updating guidance in the USCIS Policy Manual to further clarify existing policy on providing mobile biometrics collection services to benefit requestors residing in remote locations within the United States. While the standard procedure involves scheduling biometric appointments at local Application Support Centers (ASCs), USCIS recognizes the challenges faced by individuals residing in remote locations. In response to this, USCIS has introduced mobile biometrics collection services to ensure accessibility for all applicants, irrespective of their geographic location.
