Biometrics and FPs..

1. Biometrics - This is basically required for printing EAD cards and GC plastic cards. INS officers take digital photographs, digital signature of the applicant, finger print of the right index finger,

2. Regular FP is basically used by FBI to perform name check, criminal records check etc. INS officers take finger prints of all 10 fingers.

You can see one of the following code in your FP notice and it means as follows:

Code1 -> Regular Finger print

Code 2 -> Biometrics

Code 3 -> Both regular Finger Print and Biometrics


Please pay attention to the code on your notice. I guess this biometrics thing is fairly new so that even the staffs in ASC are not that familiar with them.
Documents to be taken for Finger Prints:
1. Finger Print Notice
2. Valid Photo ID (like Driver's License)
3. I-485 notice copy
4. Passport

1 and 2 are mandatory, 3 and 4 may or may not be asked depends on the officials doing FP at the FP center. Keep them to be on safer side
