Fingerprint Background Screening Solutions

Our fingerprint background check services let you capture fingerprints in multiple locations, or you can use our network of partners to capture fingerprints for you.  

• We can create a centralized or decentralized fingerprint background check solution based on your specific hiring process.
• We make it easy to recapture and re-submit fingerprints and reconcile FBI rap sheets data.

FBI Channeler

We are an approved FBI Channeler that permits First Advantage to submit fingerprints to the FBI and to return Criminal Records from the FBI to authorized recipients. In addition:

• We offer a secure connection to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (formerly NASD).
• We work with you to help ensure you follow the special handling and retention rules required by the FBI.
• Provide outsourcing services for employers when needed.  

Full Access & Reporting

As a candidate completes the enrollment and fingerprint background check process the record becomes available for tracking and reporting purposes, allowing you to monitor every step of the process. 

Mobile Fingerprint Background Check Solutions

In addition to the more traditional fingerprint background check solutions, First Advantage offers a smartphone-based Mobile Fingerprint Capture solution. First Advantage partnered with Tascent, the industry leader in intuitive, multimodal biometrics to deliver these single-device FBI-certified fingerprinting capabilities. Employers can now bypass third-party collection sites and accelerate their background screening turnaround time by processing their biometric checks directly from a mobile device.

At present, Mobile Fingerprint Capture is available to First Advantage Financial Services and Public Housing Authorities customers.
