Now, fingerprinting is one thing, but the new French government is pushing beyond that. Many immigrant visas are granted to the children of citizens, or legal immigrants. There was a fear that this would be abused. To curb that, consulates can now ask for DNA tests, to verify that the visas are indeed granted to the actual children!
