Olympic ESD 114 performs digital fingerprinting by utilizing live-scan technology.  The live-scan equipment allows the quality of prints to be checked on the equipment while they’re being taken, creating few necessary retakes and without the need for any fingerprints to be inked onto a card. Fingerprints are directly submitted to the Washington State Patrol and FBI.  After both organizations have completed their review, the fingerprint records are held by WA State OSPI for two years. Fingerprints taken through live-scan are generally cleared within one to three weeks.

Directions to our office can be found under Directions to OESD.  *Please be advised of ongoing construction next door and the resulting parking limitations. Look for the 15-minute parking spaces designated for fingerprinting appointments.
