They will take them again when you enter the USA, at the airport. I would think they compare to make sure you are the same person. If there is a security check/ AP, they may also run your finger prints.

Security Checks... helps to give a more positive ID of the person and I love it.. it's to controll these people and sort out any criminals who might be in the system already.. - yes.!

This is a MESSAGE forum comprised of OPINIONS and GUESSES - and facts as the members know them, based on our experiences -

Why don't you email the embassy and ask them if you are so interested in the process? They have a facebook page - contact them directly so they can give you the solid answer.....
