FBI Background Check for Fresno, CA Residents

Get your FBI Identity History Summary without driving to Los Angeles. Order online, get fingerprinted near Fresno, and we work with an FBI-approved Channeler to handle the rest. Start online today.

Is this the right service for you?

  • You live in or near Fresno, Clovis, Madera, or the Central Valley and need an official FBI Identity History Summary.
  • You would rather not handle the FBI submission process yourself. We guide you from ordering to results.
  • You want to be fingerprinted near home instead of making the trip to Los Angeles.

Important: this page is for the FBI report. Some California employers and licensing agencies ask for a California DOJ Live Scan instead, which is a different service. We offer Live Scan in person only at our Downtown Los Angeles office. Check which one your employer or agency requires before you order.

Why Fresno-area residents order an FBI background check

The Central Valley has large school districts, universities and colleges, agricultural employers and healthcare systems, and many people in the region also have family or plans overseas. Common reasons we hear include:

  • Immigration and visa applications, including U.S. residents applying to live in another country
  • Citizenship by descent and residency applications abroad
  • International adoption and other legal processes
  • Professional licensing or employment that asks for a federal record rather than a state one
  • Reviewing your own record, or correcting an error on it

Always confirm with the agency or employer asking for your report that it wants an FBI Identity History Summary, and how recent it must be.

How it works

  1. Order online. Pay securely in a few minutes. Choose the FBI Background Check ($150) or the FBI + Apostille Bundle ($325).
  2. Get your prepaid code. We email the code and instructions right after you order.
  3. Get fingerprinted near you. Use our location finder to choose an enrolled site close to Fresno.
  4. Get your results. We work with an FBI-approved Channeler. The Channeler notifies you directly when your results are ready.
  5. Apostille, if you need it. With the bundle, we send your FBI report to the U.S. Department of State for the federal apostille, which takes 7-10 business days.

Fingerprinting near Fresno

We do not operate an office in Fresno. Our only location is in Downtown Los Angeles, about 220 miles away. Instead, you order online and get access to our location finder, which lists enrolled fingerprinting sites in our nationwide network. Search near your Fresno ZIP code to see what is closest to you, and check each site’s hours and any appointment requirements before you go.

Bring a valid photo ID and your prepaid code. The sites we connect you with are not MR Fingerprints locations, and availability can change, so confirm before you travel.

Friends told me that doing Live Scan can be long but my experience with MR Fingerprints was quick and very efficient. I was out in less than 20 minutes. Mr Ramos was friendly yet professional and provided clarifications to my questions. Plus office was neat and comfortable. Completely recommend this!

I found myself in an urgent situation overseas and needed assistance with documentation at very short notice. What was originally estimated to take 8 to 10 weeks was somehow turned around by Mr. Fingerprints in just 3 to 4 days, and they delivered exactly when they said they would.Their responsiveness, professionalism, and genuine care completely exceeded my expectations. They truly removed a huge amount of stress during a difficult time. I can't thank them enough and would highly recommend their services to anyone needing fast, reliable support.

I contacted Mr. Fingerprints for an FBI background check that I needed for an immigration clearance from a foreign country. I wasn’t sure if I would be able to receive everything in time for my appointment that was only two months from the day. Not only did Mauricio & the team provide an excellent service, but also made sure it was delivered on time. They follow through with everything to the last detail. Quite a pleasant experience and I recommend them for anyone trying to get a notarized service last minute.

I highly recommend Mr. Fingerprint for anyone needing an FBI background check. I previously tried getting my fingerprints electronically scanned at a local USPS, but they were rejected twice due to 'quality issues.' But Mr. fingerprint was incredibly professional and handled the livescan perfectly according to my specific requirements. My fingerprints were accepted by the FBI on the first try this time. They are fast, professional, and reliable!
