Bader: On our collection day, to my surprise, my wife was given the clearance report and I was asked to wait for further 10 days! They wrote it clearly on the slip. After 10 days when I visited again, they asked to me start the process again as my previous fingerprints were not ok!

So I joined the queue again and gave my prints all over again while fearing that I will have to visit one more time to collect the report. However, as they knew my case, right after the fingerprints, they asked me to go directly to the computer department, which is located in the main building. I submitted my report there and in about half an hour I got my clearance report.
