Company is product based and all the clients are customers where the product is implemented.

Fingerprinting was scheduled on the 11th Feb
Visa appointment was scheduled for the 13th Feb.

My experience was as follows.

Fingerprinting:
1. Took 8.30 am appointment but reached at 7.45.
2. As the 8 am appointment only had few people they combined all the appointment from 8 to 8.30
3. There were only few people before me.
4. In and out took me about 20 min and i was done with photo and finger printing.
