Fingerprinting
Written By Michelle Underwood

Fingerprinting is more than just ink on paper — it’s a crucial part of identity verification for many jobs, licenses, and legal requirements. At Trusted Identity Partners in Casa Grande, we help individuals and organizations get accurate, professional fingerprinting done quickly and securely.

But when exactly do you need fingerprinting services in Arizona? Let’s break it down.

Employment background checks

Many employers — especially those hiring for roles in education, healthcare, law enforcement, or government — require fingerprint-based background checks. These help verify your identity and ensure you meet regulatory requirements before starting a new job.

Common jobs that require fingerprinting include:

  • Teachers and school staff

  • Nurses and caregivers

  • Real estate agents

  • Security guards

  • Law enforcement or corrections officers

  • Government contractors

Licensing & Certification

Arizona state boards often require fingerprinting as part of the application process for professional licenses. If you’re applying for or renewing a license in one of the following fields, chances are you’ll need fingerprinting:

  • Childcare providers (DPS Level 1 Fingerprint Clearance Card)

  • Medical professionals

  • Real estate agents and brokers

  • Private investigators

  • Behavioral health professionals

  • Foster care/adoption applicants

We work with many clients who need prints for the Arizona Department of Public Safety (DPS) or national FBI background checks.

Legal Requirements & Personal Use

You may also need fingerprinting for:

  • Record reviews (see what’s on your background check)

  • Court-related matters

  • Name changes

  • Adoption-related paperwork
