Form FD-258, also known as an ink card, is the more traditional form of background checks. Ink cards are used in cases where LiveScan isn’t applicable. California’s LiveScan services are conducted through the State DOJ, and cannot be used across state lines. Ink card background checks, however, are conducted through the FBI, and can be used for out-of-state applications.
At this time, we are unable to mail Ink Cards from our office.
FBI Channeling allows us to submit your fingerprint to the FBI without ink. Only Approved FBI Channelers are able to send prints electronically.
You can go to this link to begin your application to receive your FBI Report. It will walk you through all of the steps you’ll need to take before your appointment.
You will need to pay a fee of $47 on the Applicant Services website. This means that you will not need to pay at the Live Scan office.
