How to Apostille Your FBI Background Check

December 14, 2023 by admin

How to Apostille Your FBI Background Check

One of the easiest ways to apostille your FBI background check is to contact an FBI Channeler and submit your fingerprints at a local live scan (fingerprint) location. Results are typically provided within 1-2 business days and can be sent to you by email in PDF format or by regular mail.  The only downside to the FBI background check is the lengthy processing time at the US Department of State in Washington DC.

Yes, after almost four years since the pandemic started, the US Department of State is still taking up to twelve weeks to complete most US federal documents.  For the FBI background check, it’s currently about six weeks but it can take longer depending on how busy they get!

So in once sense it’s easy to obtain the FBI background check (even if you’re in an foreign country) but on the other hand you have to wait quite a bit of time for the FBI background check to receive the apostille through the Department of State in DC.  As of this article, the estimated processing time is six weeks.  We have seen it done sooner than six weeks as as long as 12 weeks.  Prior to the pandemic, the processing time was only four business days.  Next March, and four years later after the start of the pandemic, the US Department of State is still struggling to catch up to a reasonable processing time and there is no time-frame on when they plan to open their counter desk for walk in service (even after making promises to do so over and over again).  Therefore, we expect delays to continue into 2024.

If you plan to mail in your FBI background check directly to the U.S. Department of State, please note that they no longer answer their phone nor respond to emails anymore.  Don’t bother completing their online form – they don’t respond.   In fact, they removed their support line from their website mid-2023 during the busiest time of the year.  We experienced this first hand when they stopped responding to our emails in mid-2023.  Also, countless customers have expressed their concerns in reaching a live person since mid-2023.  If you do mail in your documents to the Department of State, please note that they can take up to twelve weeks.  As their saying goes, “you’ll know your documents are done when you receive them”.

Countries like Spain, Portugal, Ukraine, Israel, and China will ask for you to obtain a background check from the FBI.  Some countries might make an exception and accept a background check from the local Police, Sheriff, State, etc.. More details here: Background Check Apostille.  Please note that an FBI background check does not expire.  Most countries will accept an FBI background check with the apostille if received within six months of issue.  Please double check!

We recommend that you first check with your contact in the foreign country to find out what is acceptable before you get started.  When ready, contact our office for the most up-to-date estimated processing time and cost.

Record of Good Standing Apostille

September 6, 2021 by admin

Do you need to apostille a Record of Good Standing? A record of good standing is typically referred to a background check.

At International Apostille, we take the guesswork out of obtaining an apostille on your criminal background check.  We can apostille background checks issued from all 50 States, the District of Columbia (Washington DC), and the U.S. Federal Government (FBI apostille).

In order to obtain your background check, you can contact the local Police station, Sheriff’s Department, State (DOJ), and the U.S. Federal Government (FBI).  For most countries, the FBI background check is sufficient.

In order to apostille your record of good standing (AKA: background check), you must mail in the original or a certified copy to our office for processing.  Digital FBI background checks can be sent by email to our Washington DC apostille office.  Background check issued from the local Police, Sheriff, or State office can only be authenticated from the State of issue.  The Secretary of State does not have the authority to authenticate documents issued from another State. For example, if your background check is from the State of California, the State of California is the only State that can issue the apostille.  Another example is if your background check is from New York, only the State of New York can issue the apostille.

Below you will find instructions on how to obtain your background check.  Most countries will request a background check from the FBI (FBI apostille).

Local Police Station Background Check – If the requesting country is requesting a local Police background check, then all you need to do is have a letter drafted and notarized by the local police department.  Once your background check is ready to be picked-up, you will need to contact a local traveling notary to meet with the Officer to notarize his/her signature on the document.  The notary will also need to use the correct notarial wording for the State.  Once complete, mail the notarized background check with our order forms to our office for processing.

Local Sheriff’s Department Background Check – If the requesting country is requesting a local Sheriff’s Department background check, then all you need to do is have a letter drafted and notarized by the local Sheriff’s department.  Once your background check is ready to be picked-up, you will need to contact a local traveling notary to meet with the Deputy to notarize his/her signature on the document.  The notary will also need to use the correct notarial wording for the State.  .  Once complete, mail the notarized background check with our order forms to our office for processing.

Department of Justice Background Check(DOJ) – Office of the Attorney General – Obtaining a background check from the State’s Department of Justice can be a little more complicated.  For example, if you are in California, you’ll need to contact the California Department of Justice (DOJ).  The Office of the Attorney General of your State will provide you step-by-step directions.

FBI Background check – The first step in obtaining your FBI Background Check apostille is to contact an FBI Approved Channeler. An FBI channeler will provide you step by step instructions including sending you a fingerprint card. Once you receive your background check, you can then mail-in this document to our Washington DC apostille office for processing.  If you are located outside of the country and need to obtain your FBI background check, the FBI approved channeler will provide you instructions on how to obtain a digital copy of your FBI background check.  Once you receive the digital copy, you can email it to our with our FBI apostille order forms for processing.

Obtaining an apostille on a record of good standing can be complicated and time-consuming. Don’t leave this process to untrained employees or non-professionals who do not fully understand the apostille process and the unique requirements of certain countries. Your paperwork could be rejected costing you time and money. Don’t let this happen to you!

Our staff is available Monday-Saturday from 8am to 7pm to answer your questions and provide you easy to follow-step-by-step instructions.  Please call us at 1-888-810-4054 or email: support@internationalapostille.com
