Federal Bureau of Investigations
An FBI Identity History Summary, also known as a criminal background check or a "rap sheet," is a record maintained by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) containing information about an individual's interactions with law enforcement agencies at the federal, state, and local levels. This summary typically includes details such as arrests, convictions, and other criminal history information, as well as any fingerprints on file with the FBI. FortifyID Prints provides fingerprints for various purposes, including employment, immigration, adoption, and licensing, to verify an individual's criminal background and ensure they meet eligibility requirements.

-
