Today, as I am reading the info on getting my husband's spouse visa, it says this:
You’ll need to have your fingerprints and photograph (known as ‘biometric information’) taken at a visa application centre as part of your application.

I had not heard of this before; is this correct?

I am looking at the "Apply to Join Family living permanently in the UK"

Thanks,

Well, as it says that on the gov.uk website describing the restrictions, requirements, and process to obtain a visa to join family in the UK, I think you can draw your own conclusion.

Yes. Its been in place for ages.

I think the 'Biometrics' are a good thing, many countries have them before they issue a 'resident' visa or 'resident card'.

At the point of getting the 'spouse of a settled person' visa, the applicant has to hand over their passport to have a visa placed in it

Then there is the e-Passport which is said to have 'biometrics' included.
