Built-in User management system in ASP.NET

I understand that there is built-in user management system tables or third party like Identity Manager to manager user's login username, password and user roles in MVC.

My question is should I create another table to store my system user profile with the foreign key? I mean besides username, password and user roles, I need to also store other things like NRIC, telephone number, email and etc.

or should I UPDATE the built-in user management system tables or third party like Identity Manager?

Hopefully someone understands what I am trying to describe here :)

Both ways are possible and it all depends only on your preferences. The default user management in MVC is extensible and you can add more columns/properties to the the existing tables and model classes or crate new ones.
