We submit your fingerprints to the FBI electronically. Here is why that beats the old method of mailing paper cards and waiting on the result.
An FBI Identity History Summary — also called an FBI background check, FBI clearance, FBI rap sheet, or U.S. police clearance certificate — is required for a wide range of immigration and international purposes. People most often need an FBI background check for immigration, for a visa, or for work abroad.
USCIS and foreign immigration authorities often require an FBI background check for immigration, naturalization, and green-card applications to confirm you have no disqualifying record.
Work, student, residency, retirement, and marriage visas frequently require an FBI clearance as part of the application.
Overseas employers in teaching, nursing, energy, and other fields require an FBI background check before they will hire you.
Many countries require an apostilled FBI background check before granting a second citizenship.
Long-term residency and retirement visas commonly require a clean FBI clearance certificate.
Adoption agencies and foreign courts require FBI background checks for adoptive parents.
A foreign government will not accept your FBI report on its own — it must be authenticated for international use, a step known as document authentication or legalization. Our apostille and authentication services finish that step for you, so you leave with a document that is ready to submit.
For countries in the Hague Apostille Convention, we obtain a U.S. Department of State apostille so your FBI background check is recognized and accepted abroad.
If your destination country is not part of the Hague Convention, we complete the full legalization through that country's embassy or consulate — a service most providers do not offer.
Four steps from booking to a finished, authenticated document in hand.
Schedule your appointment and tell us the destination country and the purpose.
Come in with a valid government-issued photo ID.
We capture your prints digitally and send them straight to the FBI.
