Biometrics | Fingerprint ID Against Welfare Fraud

No countries and tax payers want to pay extra money for welfare cheaters. To avoid that, biometric identification system is applied. In 2015, the government of Mexico started to cross-check an individual’s enrollment in social welfare programs.
 
In the aim of perfecting the database of social welfare recipients and eliminating welfare “double-dippers” and fraud claims, the Social Development Authorities of Mexico deployed handheld computers with fingerprint recognition capability in its projects in 2015. 1.75 million people in poverty got their food stamps, with which they can purchase 14 basic products with high nutritional values at favorable prices.
 
The implementation of a fingerprint recognition system to eliminate welfare fraud is clearly a technically feasible undertaking, and the payoff in terms of real dollar savings can be immense. An example of the AFIRM system of Los Angeles shows that within six months, the government had saved $5.4 million thanks to this technology. After all, it is easy to copy a signature, but it is not possible to copy your hands.
 
The handheld computers used in this national project are provided by Chainway. This handheld terminal is equipped with additional functions of GPS, 3G connectivity and camera. Food stamp applicants had their thumbprint scanned and photos taken in their places. Officers also photographed the applicants’ living conditions with Chainway handheld computer. Under 3G network, all data was transmitted in real time to the government database.
 
Later, when applicants went to receive food stamps, they got fingerprinted again. The system matched the fingerprint in the database to determine whether this individual may claim multiple benefits from another regions or under another identity. Only the applicant passed the test can he/she got the food stamp.
 
Data of welfare applicants was being welly added. This database would be available at any time for inquiry and management.
 
Biometric technologies - fingerprint, iris or facial recognition - are moving ahead in confirming the identity of an individual through his or her unique physical characteristics in social welfare, population census, election voting and defense security. Among these three methods, fingerprint identification has the longest history and fingerprint scanning technology is easy to deploy; iris is very difficult to duplicate and stays the same for a lifetime; facial recognition is flexible enough to work without the knowledge of the subject. Chainway assembles all these functions in its different lines of products. You can always find the right product based on your needs.
