| #1 The program, started on Monday, will initially cover roughly 50,000 foreign students and spouses of permanent residents who will receive their identity cards if they qualify for visa extensions. The card, more accurate and harder to forge than a passport, will include the holder's personal details, fingerprints, and a facial image and will thus allow them to easily and securely prove their identities, the press release said. Good idea, but the beginning of the secibd sentence is interesting. |
