Common Questions
How long does it take to get fingerprint results?
Processing times vary by the agency, submission method, fingerprint quality, and current workload. Check the receiving agency's status instructions and the FBI's current processing-time information for personal record requests.
What if my fingerprints were rejected?
If you were fingerprinted at Federal Fingerprinting and your prints were rejected, we offer free re-fingerprinting. However, please note that fingerprint quality depends on individual skin conditions, which are beyond our control, so acceptance cannot be guaranteed. Contact us at (888) 417-0203 to schedule.
Where is my ATI number?
Your ATI number is printed on the receipt you received at the time of your Live Scan fingerprinting. It is a unique identifier used to track your submission.
