Step-by-Step

A member applying under SINP's Occupations In-Demand paper-based stream, with a 4-year-old child, asked whether their minor child needed to give biometrics, and at what age biometrics become mandatory.

What the thread clarified:
  1. Children below 14 years of age do not need to give biometrics. This is a straightforward age cutoff that applies to your child in this scenario.


The practical takeaway: if your child is under 14, you don't need to arrange biometrics for them as part of your application.
