Your fingerprints will be submitted to Cal-DOJ immediately after fingerprinting. Typical turn-around time from Cal-DOJ is only a few hours. Virtually all of the fingerprint background check transactions are completed within 48 hours. However, occasionally, transactions can take up to a few weeks. For example, older (age) applicant’s transactions can often take longer due to poorer fingerprint quality or paper based fingerprint records which requires manual handling.
California Department of Justice typically sends the result within 48 hours. However, it can take up to a few weeks. After 2 weeks, visit Cal-DOJ’s Live Scan status website https://applicantstatus.doj.ca.gov/ to check on the status of your transaction. You will be asked to enter the live scan assigned 10-digit Applicant Tracking identifier (ATI) for your transaction along with your birth date. You can find the ATI number on the Transaction History page. Please note that the ATI is a combination of capital letters and numbers (e.g. B123ABC789).
If the Cal-DOJ cannot locate your transaction, it does not mean they did not receive it. Generally, it means that they have not completed their processing. Wait a couple more weeks and try again. If after 4 weeks there is still no status, please contact us at support@ApplicantServices.com for further assistance. When emailing us, please include your ATI number, your name, and date of your Live Scan transaction.
Less than 0.5% of the Applicants will be rejected due to poor fingerprint image quality.
