> because I had to give them to get a passport As far as I know that isn't a requirement for a standard US Passport (maybe a Diplomatic/Government/Service passport?). Who even would take the fingerprints? I went to the USPS, and they just checked the form, stamped it a few times, and shipped it along with my supporting documents off. > also when I was in elementary school they fingerprinted everyone. That also isn't standard/normal.
