Abstract: A computerized identity matching management system including a computer receiving a request from a capture apparatus waiting to commence a biometric capture process, to initiate the capture process is disclosed. The computer responds to the request to return a message to the capture apparatus at a first instant in time, the message containing a unique code, and where receipt of the message containing the code at the capture apparatus causes initiation of the capture process. The computer, after returning a message, receives a captured biometric from the capture apparatus coded with the code, at a second instant in time. The computer operates, when the second instant is less than a predetermined time later than the first instant, to decode the captured biometric and initiate a matching process to find a match for the decoded captured biometric against records and to generate an identification code when a match is found.
