Section 1: The Roles and Responsibilities of Security Personnel
Criminal History Background Check/Live Scan
Applicants for a BSIS Security Guard Registration must undergo a criminal history background check through the FBI and DOJ. Applicants should use the Security Guard Request for Live Scan Service form, which is available for download on the Bureau's website.
The Security Guard Request for Live Scan Form contains the correct coding needed to ensure the Bureau receives the information in a timely manner- failure to Live Scan with the correct form will delay the processing of your application.
Applicants are responsible for paying all Live Scan, DOJ and FBI processing fees at the time of fingerprinting. To locate the nearest Live Scan site, visit https://oag.ca.gov/fingerprints/locations.
