Staff is available by appointment to do fingerprinting for school employees and volunteers, health care workers, bus drivers, security and financial institutions, gaming and more. Fingerprinting is done by appointment (see appt. schedule below) at both the Jerseyville and Carlinville offices. To schedule an appointment, please choose a location just above the map shown below. This will take you to a calendar to select an available day/time for your appointment. Once scheduled a confirmation e-mail will be sent to you. To cancel an appointment, please use the link provided in that e-mail confirmation. Also be sure to check your email/phone before heading to your appointment (especially in inclement weather) to be sure we haven't tried to contact you.

What to expect: Fingerprints will be scanned and a snapshot will be taken to submit for to the Illinois State Police and FBI. In most cases, the entire process takes less than 15 minutes. Once the information is transmitted, in many cases the requesting party should receive the results within three to five business days - but occasionally it could take up to 30 days. [Should there be an issue with your images (rejection) you will be notified and will need to reschedule.]
IMPORTANT: We ONLY do LiveScan digital fingerprinting, no fingerprint cards.

Effective August 12, 2004, Public Act 93-909 amended Sections 10-21.9* and 34-18.5 of the Illinois School Code [105 ILCS 5/10-21.9; 105 ILCS 5/34-18.5] to require school districts to perform a fingerprint-based criminal history records check (also referred to as a “background check”) on all certified and non-certified applicants for employment with a school district. The criminal history records check must be initiated prior to employment, but a school district may permit the individual to be hired and begin employment pending the outcome of the criminal history records check. “Initiated” means the applicant’s fingerprint image has been transmitted via LiveScan to the Illinois State Police and FBI. Employees hired prior to August 12, 2004 are not required under the School Code to submit to a fingerprint-based criminal history records check.
Fingerprint-based criminal history records checks apply to all the same individuals as the former Illinois name-based criminal background check. For example, all teachers at charter schools and substitutes that apply to be hired are required to submit to this fingerprint check. "Substitutes" include, but is not limited to, substitute teachers, aides, playground monitors, kitchen staff, etc. See 105 ILCS 5/10-21.9 for complete listing. Additionally, any employee(s) of persons or firms holding contracts with any school district who have 'direct, daily contact" with any students must submit to fingerprint-based criminal history records checks. Bus drivers who are not employed directly by the school district, student teachers and volunteers are not subject to this fingerprint check (bus drivers are separately checked as part of their licensure), but a school district may require a student teacher or parent volunteer to submit to a fingerprint-based background check, where appropriate, under the Adam Walsh Act or UCIA, per district policy.
