The California Department of Insurance (CDI) requires fingerprint impressions from persons applying for a non-resident insurance producer license from the State of California. The fingerprints will be submitted to the California Department of Justice (DOJ) and to the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) to ascertain whether or not the non-resident applicant has a criminal record that could prevent the applicant from holding a non-resident insurance producer’s license in California. Criminal background checks are an important safeguard to protect the insurance consumers from unscrupulous insurance producers. Fingerprinting is the most effective means to conduct an effective criminal background check. All applicants who submit a Non-Resident Individual Application** for an insurance license, postmarked after December 31, 2001, will be required to file fingerprint impressions.* These fingerprint impressions must be taken by a law enforcement agency (police department, sheriff's office, etc.) on a standard fingerprint card. The fingerprint card is available from the law enforcement agency that you contact to do the printing. http://www.insurance.ca.gov/0200-industry/0020-apply-license/0200-indiv-non-resident/app-requirements.cfm The CDI initiated a fingerprinting requirement for all producer applicants in 1980. However, the fingerprint check rarely revealed conviction information on non-resident applicants because the CDI was only able to check the fingerprints against the California Department of Justice database which consists of California reported convictions only. As a result, in 1988, the CDI discontinued the fingerprint requirement for non-residents. In October 2000, the CDI expanded its resident fingerprint process to include a check with the FBI database. The FBI database is a nationwide database that captures criminal convictions emanating from all 50 states . This expanded access to criminal record information allows the CDI to conduct an effective criminal background check of nonresident applicants by reinstituting the fingerprint requirement. Private Sector Background Search Fully independent, private sector background searches produce instant results and often cover more categories of information. Even thought private sector by number people search security checks eliminate the waiting period for results, they inadmissible for license applications.
