Anyone had experience with rescheduling your biometric appointment with USCIS? I’ll be at my home country for H1B renewal during the scheduled day and would like to reschedule. What is the process like and how responsive are the agent?

Get your lawyer to contact USCIS and ask if you could do your biometrics while you renew your H1B. Our lawyers said it's best not to reschedule anything with USCIS because they may take months to reschedule and we had to move our vacation to attend our interview.

Hi there!
I completed the last round of an interview (presentation) last week. Originally they said they would be calling my references & then make an offer accordingly.
Today they updated that they'd like me to travel to their HQ (based in Nordics & I'm in London) for the final round where I'd meet the CEO, the hiring manager and a couple of people in the team.
I don't think I'm the only one in the process - even though initially the last round was the presentation.
