Kern County Live Scan — questions

Do I need an appointment in Kern County?
It varies. Some Kern County locations take walk-ins and some are appointment-only. Check the listing or call ahead.
What do I need to bring?
The Request for Live Scan Service form (BCIA 8016) from whoever asked for the background check, plus one valid photo ID (driver's licence, state ID, passport, or military ID). Bring a payment method the location accepts — most take cards but some are cash-only.
How long do Live Scan results take?
Usually one to three business days from the DOJ, and up to a week when the FBI is involved. The result goes straight to whoever asked for the check — not to you. Use the DOJ's status checker at oag.ca.gov/fingerprints/status with your ATI number if you need to see progress yourself.
