Fingerprinting services will generally be requested upon the submission of a criminal history background check, most commonly through the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

A background check is the process of collecting and compiling any criminal records for the purposes of obtaining a certification, license, or for your own use.

Often, verification can be needed for a variety of records, such as:

• Criminal records (state, county, and city)
• Credit history
• Employment history
• Work authorization
• Education history (high school, university, etc.)
• Social media profiles
• Driving record
• Medical records (restrictions apply)
• Volunteer services
• Adoption procedures

Ink fingerprinting can be necessary to acquiring the background check and is offered by Atlanta Fingerprinting.
