Similarly, it is strongly recommended to use the express service provided by the visa application center to send your passport back to your desired address.
The rumor that the online operation will be postponed for two weeks this week will be broken! Others said that the appointment for fingerprint records in March was cancelled. It seems that only the meetings in the afternoon of the first week and the second week have been cancelled.
If you receive a cancellation email during non-business hours, you just need to reschedule.
It is not clear when the operation time is only in the morning. If you haven't received the notice, wait for the official news.
