What is the purpose of the Integrated Card Production System (ICPS)?

The Integrated Card Production System (ICPS) is designed specifically to facilitate the issuance of identification cards. This system streamlines processes related to the production and management of various identification documents, including those tied to immigration, such as permanent resident cards, employment authorization documents, and other vital identity-related materials.

By employing ICPS, agencies involved in immigration and documentation can improve efficiency and accuracy in creating and delivering these important identification cards. This has critical implications for both the effective administration of immigration processes and the security of identity verification.

The other choices relate to important functions within immigration and law enforcement, but do not capture the primary focus of the ICPS, which is dedicated to the card production aspect. The system's role in issuing identification cards is fundamental to managing personal documentation needs and ensuring that individuals receive the necessary credentials to verify their status or identity.
