Your Live Scan form
Your Request for Live Scan Service form comes from the agency requesting your check. We cannot create one, and we cannot fingerprint you without it. It must show:
- The ORI code of the requesting agency
- The Authorized Applicant Type
- Your license, certification, or permit type, or your working title
- The agency name and mailing address
Have three copies ready if your agency requires it.
Photo ID
A valid, unexpired government-issued photo ID.
Accepted
- California driver license
- California DMV ID card
- Out-of-state driver license
- U.S. passport
- U.S. military ID
- Permanent Resident Card (I-551)
- Employment Authorization Card (I-766)
- Foreign passport with immigration documents
Not accepted
- Expired ID, even by one day
- Temporary or paper licenses
- ID with a hole punch
- Photocopies or photos of ID
- School or work badges
This is a State requirement. We cannot fingerprint you without acceptable ID.
Payment
Credit card, debit card, cash, or company check. Businesses with an approved account can be invoiced.
FBI check
For an FBI Identity History Summary, also have:
- A working email address
- A phone that can receive a text or call
Your email address must be exact. A typo means a redo at extra cost. We read it back before we transmit. We provide the short federal form at your appointment.
Before we arrive
- Have your form and ID ready
- Wash and dry your hands
- Remove fingertip bandages if possible
Cuts, scars, or worn prints are no problem. If we processed the original and it is rejected for print quality, we re-roll at no charge.
After your visit
You get a copy of your form with your ATI number. Keep it. Results go to the requesting agency, and we cannot look them up for you.
