What is the name of the program?

Question

A 10 digit scan and digital photo will be required of Canadians using visas to enter the U. S. after Washington revamped an immigration program.

Answer 1

Regulation of immigration is the program of US to take pictures of each entrant for security purposes.

Answer 2

I believe that you're thinking of the US-VISIT Program. US-VISIT currently applies to all visitors (with limited exemptions) entering the United States. This includes visitors traveling under the Visa Waiver Program (effective September 30, 2004.)

US-VISIT does not apply to U.S. citizens. Normally, Canadians are not subject to US-VISIT, but sometimes they are.

Canadians who are subject to the US-VISIT process include:

Citizens of Canada applying for admission with a non-immigrant visa such as Canadian citizens with K visas (fiancés) and E visas (treaty trade investors).

Canadian permanent residents. Under U.S. regulations, Canadian permanent residents are identified by their citizenship (i.e., the nationality of the passport that they carry), not by the fact that they may be permanently residing in another country such as Canada.

Canadians with dual nationality who present a non-Canadian passport when seeking to enter the United States.
