Request for Live Scan Service / State Licensing Application Instructions: State Professional Licensing (BreEZe / eLicensing): Resolving Live Scan Fingerprint Background Check Delays
“I passed my state nursing or medical board exam and submitted my Live Scan fingerprints weeks ago, but the online licensing portal still says 'Pending DOJ/FBI'. What is the holdup?”
Official Procedural Summary & Rules
Fingerprint delays occur when faint ridge prints require manual human examination. Track your Live Scan ATI number on the state DOJ portal to verify completion.
Key Statutory Rules & Exceptions
Your Live Scan receipt contains an Automated Transaction Identifier (ATI) number (a 10-character code) at the bottom. • Visit the state Department of Justice background check tracking website and enter your birth date and ATI number to view real-time DOJ and FBI completion dates. • If fingerprints are rejected due to poor image quality, you will receive a notice to complete a second Live Scan at no additional state fee.
