Types of Fingerprinting Our Labs Offer

Through partnerships with companies like Firm Systems Inc Fastest Labs of Northwest Chicago has access to advanced equipment and trusted fingerprinting processes. We offer two main types of fingerprinting services:

• Traditional Ink Fingerprinting – This method requires rolling each fingertip in ink and transferring it onto a fingerprint card. Though less common now due to technological advancements, ink fingerprinting is occasionally mandated by federal agencies or specific organizations for regulatory or documentation purposes.
• Live Scan (Electronic Fingerprinting) – This method is the fastest way, using electronic scanning technology to quickly and securely capture your fingerprints, completely inkless! Most government agencies prefer it because it allows direct submission of the prints upon capture.

Whatever type of fingerprinting service you need, Fastest Labs of Northwest Chicago is here to help. We'll always discuss your needs, walk you through the process, and answer any questions to ensure you’re comfortable and informed from start to finish!

What is Livescan Fingerprinting?

Livescan Fingerprinting refers to both the technique and the technology used by law enforcement agencies and private facilities to capture fingerprints and palm prints electronically, without the need for the more traditional method of ink and paper. There are major advantages to this new technology in the field of fingerprinting. First, there is no mess as with the black printer's ink. Second, there is no chance for human and/or mechanical error as there is with the ink fingerprint method. Third, the time lapse between the actual taking of the fingerprints and the background results is achieved in hours/days as opposed to months.

Who Needs to be Livescan Fingerprinted?

Today, almost all states are mandating the taking of Livescan fingerprinting of all applicants of positions of contact with vulnerable members of society, such as the elderly, children, the mentally ill and the physically disabled. As communities are invested in protecting these groups, Livescan fingerprinting has allowed for the quick and cost-effective background checks of people coming into contact with the protected element of our society. Livescan is required as a condition of employment and/or licensure for: Teachers and School Staff, Healthcare Workers, Security Guards, School Bus Drivers, Nurses, Foster Parents, Youth Volunteers, and anyone applying for professional licensure. Private entities may also use Livescan fingerprinting to conduct pre-employment screening on applicants

How Does the Process Work?

A Trained and Certified Technician will scan your fingerprints using a Livescan machine. The electronic fingerprinting session takes five to ten minutes, and your prints are immediately sent via electronic transmission to the appropriate agencies for background processing. The technician will collect all the appropriate fees from you (the livescan applicant). The results are sent electronically to the requesting agency for either Licensure or Employment Purposes.
