The airport stuff stateside

[tttessa]

Hiya,

we have not gone to the US since all the additional security measures. This may be a daft question but do they take fingerprints of everybody, or just the adults? If so is there a cut off age...?

First of many new questions I fear...

I was told by us security that kids have to be over the age of 16 to have their fingerprints taken, think it is still the same.

I think it is age 14 and over that fingerprints are taken of both index fingers.

Our DS was 14 last year and had his prints took.

Our dd was 14 when we went last Dec and did not have her prints taken, but she did when we crossed over the border into America from Canada in the summer.
