The Applicant Live Scan program is a system for the electronic submission of fingerprints

and the subsequent automated background check and response. The response time

from the Department of Justice when using the Applicant Live Scan program is faster with

fewer rejections. The Department of Justice now requires that all applicants submit

fingerprints through the Applicant Live Scan program. Applicants can now download the

triplicate form for the Request for Live Scan Service from the Department’s website at

www.dfpi.ca.gov.

The applicant must take the three-part form to a live scan location to have their fingerprints

taken by the operator. The applicant’s fingerprints will be transmitted electronically to the

Department of Justice for processing. The applicant will be required to pay the fees

charged by the Department of Justice for processing the fingerprints directly to the live

scan operator.
