Should the card be filled out in my presence!

I've been doing fingerprinting since late August 2023 and done just over 110 sessions....out of those 110+ sessions I have only had one customer who wanted to sit and fill out the FD-258 card before he left my office....tonight I was speaking with the friend who turned me on to fingerprinting and she asked me if I had the client fill the cards out during our session....I said no that I only asked for and verified their identification and signed and dated the card and sent them on their way...I do have a 'sample' card sitting there that I suggest they take a picture of as a guide of sorts on how to fill out the card....she thinks I should require them to fill the card out while in my presence. I have never read or heard anyone say that was a requirement! Does anyone know for sure? Daniel?
