FINGER PRINTS

[bigdadykain]

I cut a tendon on my right pinky finger 20 years ago and it will not open even with force. When my instructor took my prints he left it blank and wrote deformed finger. Will tis slow down the process?

Welcome to the forum. I don't know for a fact, but I doubt your condition will affect your application. Many people have missing fingers.

I've always wondered what they do about people who have six fingers on one hand.

Welcome to the forum, it is good to have you. There is a gold mine of information on here and a lot of company as you wait.

I have a finger that I cut off the tip of it in an accident many moons ago and the way they sewed it up left it all weird looking with the pad pulled over to the edge...anyway, when they took my finger prints at the CHL class they just wrote on that space the reason it was all messed up. I have been holding my breath for fear that they are going to reject them. I have read some pretty horrible stories on here about fingerprints!

Good Luck!

I have no idea - it might, but it sounds like you have done everything that you can about it. I would bet that they deal with this type of a thing from time to time though.

Oh, and welcome!

No, it should not slow down the process.
