Answer:

(Answers may vary.)

In addition to fingerprints, IAFIS stores criminal histories, mug shots, and physical information like scars, tattoos, eye color, hair color, weight, and height. It also stores fingerprints of individuals who are or were employed by the US military and the federal government.

The system’s average response time for criminal fingerprint processing is about 27 minutes. Civil fingerprint processing takes over an hour.

Previously, the tenprint submission and identification was a manual, tedious process. It took the FBI weeks or months to process a single fingerprint submission. IAFIS has automated this process and added advanced identification capabilities. The submission and processing takes just few minutes. This has helped the FBI solve and prevent crime and tighten holds on criminals and terrorists.
