What It Is
Live Scan captures your fingerprints electronically using a high-resolution digital scanner and transmits them directly to the FBI — no ink, no physical card, no mailing. Required for teachers, childcare workers, healthcare professionals, and adoption applicants. Note: Identigo holds an exclusive contract with TX DPS — TruIdentity submits Live Scan directly to the FBI.
Who Needs This

- Childcare and daycare workers
- Healthcare professionals seeking Texas licensure
- Adoption applicants and foster care providers
What to Bring
- Valid government-issued photo ID
- ORI (Originating Agency Identifier) number — provided by your employer or licensing board
