How FAST Card Transmits Data

FAST card transmits personal data about the card holder in the following way: When you join the FAST card lane at the US Canada border your RFID FAST card transmits a signal with your personal FAST card ID number.  Your FAST data appears on the border official’s computer screen. It is cross checked with law enforcement databases in Canada and the US as well as with license plate readers. The customs and border patrol guard verifies FAST pass data when you arrive at the FAST lane inspection point. As a low risk traveler your personal information is held on the Customs and Border Patrol computer and not directly on your FAST card.

FAST Interview Process

The FAST interview is held at one of the border crossing points or dedicated FAST enrollment centers. The object is to explain the rules of the FAST program to you and take your fingerprints and a photograph. You must take the original ID documents submitted with your application – these will all be verified against your application. IPVS will instruct you on what to take.

You will need to provide:

	your US citizenship or legal immigration status
	a valid commercial driver’s license from the US state where you live
	Details of your employment or your financial support. (e.g. your recent tax return, a salary slip or if you are self employed your
	Business license, tax information and bank statements)
	Proof of your address e.g. a mortgage statement, ownership deeds or a rent receipt.

 

You will be informed at your FAST interview whether or not you have been accepted into the FAST card program. Your fingerprints will be taken digitally – this is an ink free process. Your photograph will be taken for your FAST card and the border officials will explain the program and answer any of your questions. Your FAST card will be sent to you shortly after the interview.
