What must be included in the original application involving fingerprinting?

The requirement for a fingerprint card and photo in the original application is essential because these elements are vital for verifying the identity of the individual applying for a driver's license or permit. Fingerprinting serves multiple purposes, including background checks for criminal history and ensuring public safety. The inclusion of a photo helps to establish a visual identification that corresponds with the fingerprints provided, adding an extra layer of security and accuracy to the identification process.

In contrast, although a signed authorization form, a completed job application, and an employment history might be relevant in various contexts, such as job applications or background checks, they are not specifically mandated elements for the state driver's license application process involving fingerprinting. Thus, they do not fulfill the specific requirements outlined in the Utah Driver Handbook for the original application.
