What is the status of my background check?

The Applicant Background Check Status provides the applicant with a view of the fingerprint background check status; this status is not an indication of the employment or licensing status. The review of an applicant’s criminal history is only one piece of an agency’s process in making a suitable determination.
An applicant may otherwise request the status of their fingerprint background check only with the agency (employer/organization) that requested their background check. If an applicant’s fingerprints match fingerprints in the database, the associated RAP sheet must be reviewed by a technician. This is a manual process that can take an indeterminate amount of time. ACCU-Print does not receive the results of the background check.

Click the button below to check status. You will need your ATI number, located on your Live Scan Form, and Date of Birth to look up your status.

What is Live Scan Fingerprinting?

Live Scan fingerprinting starts with the process of rolling your fingerprints on the electronic scanner, then the fingerprints are submitted to the DOJ to conduct a criminal background check. Once the transaction is received by the DOJ, the fingerprint images are used to automatically search against all other fingerprint images in the fingerprint database. If there are no fingerprints matching the applicant’s fingerprints, the transaction is generally processed electronically without technician intervention within 48 to 72 hours. If an applicant’s fingerprints match fingerprints in the database, the associated RAP sheet must be reviewed by a technician. This is a manual process that can take an indeterminate amount of time. The applicant agency is automatically sent a delay notice response. Questions or status inquiries related to a delayed transaction cannot be responded to, as there is no pertinent information that can be statutorily provided until the manual review of the transaction is complete. The next communiqué the applicant agency will receive is the completed response.

My employer is asking for a copy of my criminal history
record. Can I give it to them?

copy of your criminal record to an unauthorized third party. In addition,
California Penal Code section 11125 prohibits an individual or agency from
requiring you to provide him/her or the agency with a copy of your criminal
record or proof that a record does or does not exist. Violation of either of
these sections is a misdemeanor offense.
