Thank you for the detailed explanation. What buffer time one should reserve for the entire biometric process to get completed at the center? Want to plan my to & fro flights accordingly.

The biometrics hardly takes 20 minutes after you enter the building. But do keep ample amount of buffer based on the traffic of the city where you are travelling to .

Thank you for the information. So biometric happens on same day as interview or did you had to go on two days?

It happens on different days.
If my DS-160 is about to expire from the actual VISA interview, when should I ask them for a new DS-160? After biometric and picture or before all the process even starts? Also, do they charge you if you ask them for a new DS-160? Also can I carry a purse with me or should I put it in the locker?
Thanks alot !
thank you so much :), my biometric has been completed successfully. Your tips indeed were helpful

Hi. Thanks for the video. I have biometrics at Mumbai soon. I recently renewed my indian passport and got a new one. Can I get the DS-160 corrected for the new passport number at the biometrics center? I will carry old and new passports.
@muskangupta11_05

As far as I know, your mrv receipt (visa application fee) is linked to the passport number and if your passport number changes the mrv will be invalid , which basically means that you have to make the payment again. I was about to get my passport renewed before the appointment as well, but when I did some research I found this information. If this is not true , do let me know so i can help others if they face similar doubts .
