sorry buddy. Didnt you send multiple copies in the second time at least? How many copies you sent each time?
I think we dont have any way out like one of our other friend said in the forum. So send some 10 copies from multiple fingerprinting types (taken by self, taken by professional and digitally scanned printed) and see how it works. I hear that people got more than 2-3 extensions and very few tried more than twice.

I read on some taking each state's clearances separately but not sure how well it works on collecting and how well it works on acceptance at visa office.

I'm curious. Did they indicate that in eCAS or did you call to find out that they added it to your file.

thanks for your reply. The first time i sent 2 copies and got rejected, the second time i sent 5 copies and got rejected. I live in Australia, the only place i can collect my finger print is from the local police statation. Could you give me some instructions on how i can do it by myself? As the police station seems very professional than me, if the finger prints taken from the police statation got rejected twice, how i can do it well by myself? thanks

There are private agencies which help you get good prints for FBI PCC purposes .. Just google you will be able to find some in Australia who would be able to help you out !!

thanks harrysaini. Actually, I already applied from the private agency. And that is my third application which arrived at FBI on 1st May. At the moment, i am worried about the third application will be rejected by FBI agian since the agency told me my finger is very light and not much information can be collected even if they use a kind of professional ink for FBI finger prints.

Recording Legible Fingerprints

Unless you work in occupations which involves degrading your finger tips its not true. that guy just wanted to avoid the situation and told so that you wont blame him later. try for some digital scan locations. try 2-3 private/govt agencies for manual prints. if possible few digital scan places too.

My prints - When i tried with one police station, they took light and in another they took it dark. It all depends on the type of ink or how much pressure they apply. When i scan them in couple of locations , it was light and the scan was dark in another couple of locations. It depends on the type of machine (or the darkness set) they use in case of scanned prints. I thought that the machine prints would be same but its not true. In one (digital scan) location it was really worst and threw it in trash. My expectation was that one digital location would solve the issue but it did not.

so do try in many locations and in many types(digital and manual).

Also send some more prints soon.

Thank you very much harirajmohan. You gave me hope and I will follow your instructions to do it.

The same thing happened to my wife. We are on our third attempt. We sent multiple copies both times but her prints are thin. This third time we went to a 3rd different place that does the electronic prints. Hopefully it works this time because now CIC has actually already requested my wife's PCC.

Find someone who can do them digitally. That way they can work with it until they get an image. With ink you get whatever comes out without the ability to move the finger to get a better image like with digital.

Good luck & best wishes!

Thanks for sharing. Can i ask if you sent the digital one earlier which accepted for you or you sent manual prints for both and yours only got accepted? I am asking because i also sent manual and digital separately hence thinking at least one will get through.
