How fast can my clients get FBI background check results?

Same-day FBI background check results in **1-4 hours** for standard processing. For emergency cases with USCIS interviews scheduled within one week, we offer priority processing that can deliver results in **1-2 hours**. This is significantly faster than the 3-5 business day standard at most fingerprinting vendors.

What is your fingerprint rejection rate for immigration cases?

Our rejection rate is **less than 0.2%** due to FBI-certified Live Scan equipment and experienced technicians who have processed thousands of I-485, N-400, I-751, and K-1 fingerprinting cases. We perform quality control checks before submission to ensure first-time acceptance.

If fingerprints are rejected, what happens?

We re-scan immediately at **no additional charge**. Our technicians identify any issues (hand position, pressure, moisture) and adjust technique to ensure successful capture. Rejected prints are extremely rare with our equipment and expertise.

Do you accept walk-ins or require appointments?

Walk-ins are welcome** Monday-Friday during business hours. No appointment necessary for standard FBI background checks or Live Scan fingerprinting. However, we offer **priority scheduling** for attorney-referred clients with urgent deadlines or clients who prefer guaranteed appointment times.

What languages does your staff speak?

Our staff is **fluent in English, Spanish, and Vietnamese**. This makes us the preferred fingerprinting vendor for immigration attorneys serving diverse Bay Area communities. We can complete the entire fingerprinting process in the client’s preferred language, eliminating errors caused by language barriers.

Can you expedite FBI apostille for international immigration cases?

Yes. We provide **expedited FBI apostille in 12-14 days** compared to 8-12 weeks through standard Department of State processing. This is critical for K-1 visa interviews, international adoptions, and foreign employment cases with tight consular appointment deadlines. We coordinate directly with DOS and provide tracking updates.

What information do clients need to bring?

Required: Unexpired identification such as ID, Driver License, Passport or Mexico Consular ID. FBI Check form (Request through us and we will send via email.) We guide clients on required documents when they call to schedule.

Do you serve clients who don't speak English?

Absolutely. Our **Spanish-speaking and Vietnamese-speaking staff** can serve your clients fluently in their preferred language, ensuring accurate form completion, clear communication, and comfortable experience. This is one of our primary differentiators from English-only fingerprinting vendors.

What if my client has a criminal history?

We fingerprint all clients regardless of criminal history. For immigration cases, the FBI background check will reflect any criminal records, which is expected and required for USCIS processing. We handle these cases professionally and confidentially. If clients have questions about how criminal history affects their immigration case, we recommend they consult with you directly.

Can you process entire families in one visit?

Yes. For I-485 adjustment of status cases with principal applicant, spouse, and derivative children all needing fingerprinting, we can process the entire family in one visit. This is convenient for families and ensures consistent processing for the entire application package. We strive to provide a seamless experience, guided by our expert FBI Background Check Immigration Attorneys.
