LIVE SCAN FINGERPRINTING

The Modesto Police Department provides this service to the general public BY APPOINTMENT ONLY.

 
Before the applicant can  be fingerprinted, they must have the following:

1) A livescan form provided by their employer

2) A photo ID

FEES:    The Modesto Police Department charges a fee of $10.00. This fee is only for the fingerprinting services provided by the Modesto Police Department.

OTHER FEES:    Some employers choose to have the Department of Justice bill them at the end of the month. If an employer has chosen this method of payment there will be a BILLING NUMBER on your live scan form. If the BILLING NUMBER field has been completed by your employer you will only be charged the Modesto Police Department's $10.00 fee.

If the BILLING NUMBER field is left blank – you will be charged fees indicated by the Livescan machine in addition to the Modesto Police Department's $10.00 fee. The fees are based on your new employer’s AORI # (located on the upper left hand corner of your Livescan form) and the type of service indicated on your form – DOJ, FBI, or CHILD (These fields are typically located near the bottom of the Livescan form on the right hand side.).

PAYMENT:    Cash or Business Check only (make checks payable to "City of Modesto.")

APPOINTMENTS:    If you are 15 minutes late for your appointment, you will be asked to reschedule.
 

HOURS: MONDAY – THURSDAY  by appointment ONLY


PHONE NUMBERS:
Please call 209-572-9659 for an appointment.

 

If you would like background checks for potential employees you will need to contact the Department of Justice to set up a Livescan account.
