The California Department of Justice (CA DOJ) has established a process of performing background checks utilizing digitized fingerprints. When your fingerprints are scanned digitally, it is referred to as a Live Scan. To date there are over 41,436 different type of Live Scans.  Upon completion of your live scan, your digital prints and personal information are immediately electronically sent to CA DOJ and/or the FBI. These government agencies will then match your fingerprints against their criminal data base and directly notify the requesting agency of the results. If you have no record, you have successfully passed your background screening and the requesting agency may then issue your license or credential and authorize you to commence employment as the case may be.
