It is actually strongly suggested by attorneys to do a walk-in, the rescheduling process will delay the application process by possibly a month or more.

While there is actually no proof that doing the walk-in will delay anyone.

Actually it won't. From what the agent told me when I called today regarding the process of reviewing applications he said that its based on two things. Receipt number and if they have received your background check. He said some background checks take longer to arrive than others, based on the demand and based on possible matches. If the FBI finds a possible match they have to investigate it to make sure it is/isn't you. Once they confirm they send it over to them. After they receive your results they place your application "in line" for review. The reason some get their approvals earlier than others is because the FBI handled the prints much quicker. He said there are several factors that slow down the FBI like other applications, businesses and people requesting background checks, and other factors. I asked if walk-ins could cause a delay and he said yes. They said the reason that USCIS spreads out appointments is so that their offices and the FBI department that handles the background checks don't get overwhelmed with all these requests.

Do whatever you want to do, I personally do not care; it's just silly to do a walk-in because you feel like it, rather than because you have a valid reason. People that do walk-ins for valid reasons go closer to their appointment dates, not WEEKS even almost a month before as I've noticed on this site.

Vjose52 is commenting on delays with the FBI process, not the DACA application process, it is most likely that the delay is caused either by following up on other potential matches, but regardless, the whole process for the biometrics should not take more than a couple hours, this was according to either the USCIS, ICE or BP director during one of the conference calls when he was asked on the length of time someone would be detained pending a response from their biometrics if they where arrested and doing the DACA application through ICE. The concern was that it would be weeks, he re-assured that the process would take at most a matter of hours.

Ultimately, the process is more likely going to depend on how long a person takes to review the proof provided in the application and which center it was sent to than the biometrics.
