Live Scan Fingerprinting Services

The Department of Justice has developed an automated background check process that requires digitized fingerprints (“Live Scan”).  The electronic fingerprinting takes five to ten minutes and your prints are immediately available for electronic transmission to the DOJ and the FBI.

Live Scan Fingerprints are required to be submitted by Real Estate Licensees, Notaries, Nursing Graduates for NCLEX, Vehicle salespersons or any other vehicle industry related occupation licensed by DMV, Foster Parents, Stock Brokers, Teachers, Appraisers, Elder Care Givers, as well as anyone having contact with children, Security Guards, and many more!

It is important that you bring the authorized “Request for Live Scan Service – Applicant Submission” form.  Please make SURE the form is completed PRIOR to your arrival.  An incomplete form may result in your appointment being re-scheduled.

Acceptable forms of identification include:  State Driver’s License, State Department of Motor Vehicle identification card, or Passport.

Fees:  ESTEEM processing fee, $20.  DOJ fee, $32 and the FBI fee, $24 – for a total of $76.  Other fees may also be required, (i.e., license fees).
