Live Scan fingerprinting in Downtown Los Angeles?
What Is Live Scan Fingerprinting
Live Scan is a modern, digital fingerprinting method that captures fingerprints electronically and sends them directly to government agencies like the DOJ and FBI for background checks. It’s faster, more accurate, and eliminates the need for messy ink cards.
- Employment background checks
- Professional licensing (e.g., real estate, healthcare, teachers)
- Legal purposes (e.g., adoptions, immigration, court orders)
- Volunteer work involving vulnerable populations
Is Live Scan Fingerprinting DOJ & FBI Approved?
Live Scan fingerprinting is fully approved for submission to the California Department of Justice (DOJ) and, when required, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). Your fingerprints are captured electronically and transmitted securely to the appropriate government agency for processing, ensuring fast and accurate background check results. Unlike traditional ink fingerprint cards, Live Scan eliminates paper forms and manual mailing, reducing errors and processing delays. This electronic submission process is the standard method accepted for employment, licensing, legal, and background check requirements in California.
