Aww, I know how you feel but we have to stay positive. I like to think that since our technicians had us re-scan our prints multiple times that they made sure to get it right before sending them to the FBI.

You like SHM also? I bought my ticket for their last tour show in NY.

And back on topic, I dont think I had any trouble but they did everything twice but it seemed like it was supposed to be that way. And Real nice people too wished me good luck

yup, i had the same problem. never had that problem before because i have been live scanned several times and it was alright. i'm thinking their machine is a lot more sensitive. but we spent 15 minutes on my fingers. my right pointer and middle fingers were the problem because they are fading. i'm a nursing student so we wash our hands a lot and tons of antibacterial soap so it wipes off my finger prints. hope everything went alright with it...

Did anyone else get asked to submit to a full body pat down? Or was that woman just messing with me.

Before I went in to get my biometrics done, I stopped by the Mcdonalds inside Walmart to get something to digest. I washed my hands really good with soap, but the machine is very sensitive and picked up some of the grease from who knows where. The guy had to keep wiping my fingers, he just kept going: "Oh no." *wipe*, "no, no no no", *wipe*, "Oh nouuuuuuuuu," *wipe*, "okay, we are done ."

For future reference, do not eat anything greasy before you go in for fingerprints (future biometrics DACA applicants).

That's how mine was! except she was more like "oh no..." "this is not good" and kept wiping. And then when she wiped, it got worse! The last ones seemed alright picture-wise, but the one said reject even though the fingerprint seemed clear on the screen, so I can't go by that. Oh, well, it's out of my hands now (unintentional pun)

i had a few rejected ones as well, but she didn't say anything about them.
i might have missed something though bcuz she did start talking to me really fast in Spanish and looked at me like i was crazy when i stopped her and said "sorry, i don't speak Spanish". smh
