FBI Fingerprinting FAQs

How do I get an FBI background check?

Submit your fingerprints and request to the FBI, either directly or through an FBI-approved channeler. I capture your prints in person and submit them electronically for faster results.

What is an FBI background check?

It's your FBI Identity History Summary, a summary of any criminal history the FBI has on file, or a statement that there is none. Foreign governments often require it for visas and residency.

How fast will I get my FBI report?

Results from electronic submissions may be available within 24 hours, usually the same day.

Is this the same as Live Scan?

No. Live Scan is California DOJ fingerprinting for California jobs and licenses. This service is for FBI reports.

Can you apostille my FBI report?

Yes, through the U.S. Department of State. See FBI Background Check Apostille.
