Thank you so much. I think I had called this one but they redirected to the state department where IDs would be asked again. But I'm checking today again. I called one today, they agreed to do it digitally. I'm waiting for my resubmit eDO option to be answered and if that doesn't work, will check for live scan, first thing.

Thank you so much. I think I had called this one but they redirected to the state department where IDs would be asked again. But I'm checking today again.

My wife has dry skin and it was really difficult to get her prints done electronically. They applied moisturizing lotion on her hands and rolled them on the capture device to get her prints.
Oh is it. Yeah it should be done electronically. Atleast the system denies if they are of bad quality. On paper with ink, you go on paying and only the end result can confirm whether they are good quality fingerprints and the cycle continues. I'm going for a live scan if I fail in this current attempt too. Thank you for the help.
I tried resubmitting through eDO. All went well but they estimate it'll take 2 weeks. And when I asked for reconfirmation, they said 2-3 weeks. :/
Only if you do a normal request through eDO and send fingerprints, it is processed in 48 hours. And for resubmitting option, 2-3 weeks they said.

Hello, Im about to do the same thing as you did with the new option to resubmit. Can you tell me how it goes for you ?
Thanks
Hello,
Sure. I'm yet to receive a response. I did it on 13th, I called them yesterday, I called them today for status checking. One generous lady explained the process to me. She said,
They have to physically go to their other department and search for the earlier sent fingerprints. This may take a while i.e. upto 2 weeks. Once they get hold of fingerprints, they'll update us via email that they have our fingerprints and after that the in 48 hours, you'll receive the result.
I explicitly asked her if this fingerprint hunt anyhow extends beyond 2 weeks. She denied and said it has usually taken maximum 2 weeks.
Meanwhile I've finally managed to find one Livescan fingerprinting service.
As per my experience with the fingerprints I have taken till date, honestly I have no hopes with this resubmit result though. So I'm going to wait for a week more and then will probably go for the Livescan thing.
Reason of my haste being I just have 3 weeks left for my submission to CIC, and I don't want to extend that date one more time!
When I went to get fingerprints taken at a lab, my fingerprints didn't came out very good but I would say that that was technician's fault. I went to another lab where my fingerprints came out well and I got the eDO. Technician at first lab told me about another lady who had some problem with her hand that her fingerprints very feeble.
Sometime it depends on technician, sometimes it may be physical factors.
I got it done via roll & ink only as there aren't many options for live scan in India. However based on what I read/seen online, live scan can be better, so go for them if you have the option.
Yes exactly. Instead of trying the same thing again and again, I'll try if I can get Livescan done. If this result is also a rejection, Livescan will be my 4th attempt.
So finally I got my IDHS from US FBI, in my 4th attempt. So anybody who is going through rejections due to low quality of fingerprints, please try reaching out to Live Scan fingerprinting services.
