Employee Fingerprint Service

Your Direct Connection to the FBI Database

Reliable

Financial institutions have an obligation to check the backgrounds of potential employees. The Clearing House Employee Fingerprint Service enables financial institutions to conduct a background check on potential and current employees reliably and cost-effectively using the FBI's national fingerprint database. The result is that financial institutions can streamline their hiring process, reduce costs and stop internal fraud before it occurs – all using a partner they already know.

Fast

We electronically transmit results to you in 24 hours or less. The fast turnaround time enables institutions to carefully – and rapidly – make hiring decisions. Equally important, the Employee Fingerprint Service from The Clearing House provides you with the assurance of fulfilling the FDIC mandate (12 USC 1829) that forbids banks from hiring convicted felons.

Low-Cost

Financial institutions of any size can sign up for the Employee Fingerprint Service and pay a low, per-transaction fee for each fingerprint review. Using electronic submissions, you’ll save 40% over paper submissions.

Easy

Financial institutions create a digital image of an applicant’s fingerprints using ink on cards or a flatbed scanner. The data file is then transmitted electronically via the Clearing House’s direct connection to the FBI’s national fingerprint database. Results can often be transmitted to your institution electronically within minutes. It’s that simple.
