Which immigration safety measure uses fingerprints and other checks to verify identities?

• A. Multiculturalism
• B. Biometrics and Immigration Safety
• C. Independent/Economic Class
• D. Family Class

Answer: (B)

Biometrics involve using unique physical traits, like fingerprints, to confirm who a person is. In immigration safety, these checks verify that the individual presenting themselves matches their records, helping to prevent identity fraud and strengthen security in the entry process. This method—collecting fingerprints and other biometric data to authenticate identity—is the option that directly describes how identities are verified.

The other ideas relate to immigration in different ways but not to the verification method: multiculturalism is about cultural diversity as a policy, while independent/economic class and family class refer to categories of immigration streams rather than the process of confirming identity.
