So my application was received on 6/20/16, been waiting for my biometrics appointment FOREVER, called and emailed multiple times and finally received my appointment notice this Monday...

My permit is expiring on 10/17/16 and my biometrics is scheduled for 10/25/16.
I tried to do a walk in yesterday morning, but was turned away because they were too busy. However, I talked to an officer and he told me that I could tell my employer to register for "E-verify" and to file form G-845 so that I can stay employed even if my permit expires.

Has anyone heard of this before? I tried researching but could not find anything.

Also, I'm thinking of trying a walk-in at another location. Has anyone done this successfully? The officer told me I cannot get my biometrics done at a different office.
