finger print in US passport - which finger? Left/right hand? Thumb?
I've got the US passport for my 3 month old kid.
There is a place for signature...One of my friend told that kid's fingerprint should be there in the passport. But he was not sure which finger? Left/Right hand? thumb?
Please help
Thanks in advance

Re: finger print in US passport - which finger? Left/right hand? Thumb?
INS standard procedure seems to be index finger, right hand for ID fingerprints.
Good luck in trying to get an inky fingerprint from a three month old into a passport! .... Thinking about it, try your bank - they probably have proper finger print pads (many keep them right there on the tellers' desks) and may let you use one for the passport?
