Processing of the fingerprint card takes approximately 3-6 weeks. However, the FBI has 120 days to

Board will not consider for approval your application for licensure until your application is complete
including your background check is received. Delays may occur if the above instructions are not
followed. Delays may also occur if the fingerprint card is returned by DPS/FBI because the
“FINGERPRINTS ARE NOT LEGIBLE”. A new fingerprint packet may need to be completed. No
permanent license will be issued until both state and federal criminal history clearance has been
completed.
4. WHERE DO I OBTAIN FINGERPRINTING SERVICES?
