AES of Nevada Fingerprinting & Training Center provides comprehensive fingerprinting solutions from our locations in Las Vegas, Henderson, and Laughlin. We offer Live Scan fingerprinting (digital capture and electronic submission), traditional Ink Fingerprinting on physical cards (like the standard FD-258 card), and Mobile Fingerprinting Services for both Live Scan fingerprinting and Ink Fingerprinting for individuals and groups at your location. Additionally, we facilitate specific Live Scan submissions through www.Applicantservices.com for FBI Departmental Orders (https://applicantservices.com/fbi-channeler/Departmental-Order-556-73/) and Fingerprints for the State of Florida (https://applicantservices.com/Florida/). Our services cater to various needs such as employment screening, professional licensing, state and federal background checks, and more.
Fingerprinting is often required in Las Vegas and throughout Nevada for various reasons mandated by state or federal regulations, primarily to conduct background checks. Common purposes include employment screening (especially in fields like education, healthcare, childcare, security), professional licensing (e.g., Nevada Gaming Control Board, Nursing Board, Real Estate Division, Contractors Board, PILB), federal checks (FBI), out of state CCW, immigration, adoption, and personal record reviews. AES of Nevada Fingerprinting & Training Center is equipped to handle fingerprinting for many of these requirements.
Live Scan fingerprinting is a modern, inkless method of capturing your fingerprints digitally using a scanner. AES of Nevada Fingerprinting & Training Center utilizes Live Scan technology for fast, clean, and accurate fingerprint capture. These digital prints can often be transmitted electronically directly to requesting agencies like the Nevada Department of Public Safety (DPS) and the FBI for checking against state and federal criminal history databases, reducing processing time compared to traditional ink cards. “Electronic Fingerprints” typically refers to Live Scan prints.
Ink fingerprinting, also known as Hard Card fingerprinting, is the traditional method where fingerprints are rolled in ink and transferred onto a physical card, most commonly the standard FBI FD-258 card. AES of Nevada Fingerprinting & Training Center offers this service, which is often required for certain federal agencies, out-of-state requirements, or specific licensing processes that do not accept Live Scan. The rolling fee for ink cards is $25.00 for the 1st card, and $10.00 for each additional card (background check fees are separate). Remember that agency processing times for ink cards can take an estimated 8+ weeks. (See Question 6 for the Ink Card process).
The main difference is the method and submission. Live Scan captures prints digitally and transmits them electronically for faster processing against state/federal databases. Ink Fingerprinting uses ink on a physical card (Hard Card) which typically needs to be mailed by you to the requesting agency, resulting in longer processing times. Your requesting agency’s instructions will usually specify which method (Live Scan or Hard Card) you need.
When coming for ink fingerprinting, please bring any written instructions provided by the agency requesting your prints. If you were given a blank fingerprint card, bring that as well (though AES of Nevada Fingerprinting & Training Center will provide the standard FD-258 cards). Do not fill out the card beforehand. Our certified technician will verify your valid, non-expired ID, ensure all required information fields are completed legibly in black ink based on your agency’s instructions, capture the fingerprints, and typically seal the completed, legible card(s) in an envelope with a Chain of Custody label. We strongly recommend mailing this sealed envelope promptly in a protective cardboard mailer using a trackable service (UPS/USPS/FedEx) as advised by AES of Nevada Fingerprinting & Training Center.
No, AES of Nevada Fingerprinting & Training Center does not offer the service of capturing fingerprints via Live Scan and then printing them onto a card. While this technology exists, our experience indicates that cards printed this way can suffer from reduced resolution or printer calibration issues, potentially leading to higher rejection rates. To ensure the highest possible quality and acceptance rate for physical fingerprint cards (like the FD-258), we exclusively use the traditional ink-and-roll method (‘wet prints’).
Additionally: Please remember to bring any fingerprinting forms, documents, or written instruction sheets provided by the agency requesting your fingerprints. These often contain necessary agency identifiers (like ORI or RFP numbers) and specify required information or the fingerprinting method (Live Scan or Hard Card). Bringing these specific instructions is crucial.
While not always mandatory for every type of fingerprinting, your Social Security Number (SSN) is often required by the requesting agency (especially for licensing and employment background checks) to accurately identify individuals and process background checks through state and federal systems. It is listed as a required field on standard fingerprint cards like the FD-258. Please refer to the instructions provided by your requesting agency; if they require it on the form, you will need to provide it. AES of Nevada Fingerprinting & Training Center includes it based on standard requirements but handles all personal information securely.
An ORI (Originating Agency Identifier) number is a code assigned by the FBI and state control terminals (like Nevada DPS) to identify the specific agency authorized to request and receive fingerprint background check results. An RFP (Reason For Fingerprinting) code is often used to provide further detail about the specific purpose of the fingerprint request. You typically do not need to find these numbers yourself. They should be provided to you by the agency, employer, or licensing board that is requiring you to get fingerprinted, usually on their official Fingerprint form or instruction sheet. Please bring that form/instruction sheet with you to your appointment.
The actual fingerprint capture process at AES of Nevada Fingerprinting & Training Center is usually quick, typically taking around 10 to 20 minutes. Wait times may vary.
Currently, appointments are not required and walk-ins are welcome at our Las Vegas, Henderson, and Laughlin locations during their respective business hours. (Please note: A formal appointment policy is being developed. While walk-ins are currently accepted, checking our website or calling ahead at 702-253-7821 for the latest information before your visit is always a good idea, especially if you are on a tight schedule.)
For Live Scan fingerprints, AES of Nevada Fingerprinting & Training Center electronically transmits your prints to the designated agency (e.g., Nevada DPS, FBI) for checking against State and Federal criminal history databases. For ink cards, you are typically responsible for mailing the completed card to the requesting agency (AES of Nevada Fingerprinting & Training Center advises using a protective mailer with tracking). AES of Nevada Fingerprinting & Training Center does not receive or process your background check results; the results are sent directly from the analyzing agency (State/FBI) to the entity requesting your background check. Processing times vary significantly by agency and purpose – Live Scan results can take days to weeks, while ink card results can take 8 weeks or more.
The validity period of a fingerprint background check is determined by the agency or entity that requested it, not by the fingerprinting facility. Some agencies consider results valid for 90 days, 6 months, a year, or longer, while others may require new fingerprints for every new application, license renewal, or job change. Please consult the specific agency or employer requiring the background check for their policy on how long they consider the results valid.
Regulatory Requirements: Many laws and regulations explicitly mandate new fingerprints at specific intervals (like license renewals) or for new applications.

Applicants needing fingerprinting for a CCW permit in Las Vegas should contact LVMPD directly for their procedures, locations, and requirements.
