Electronic fingerprinting services in Grand Traverse

The Grand Traverse County Clerk's Office has introduced LiveScan fingerprinting services at the Governmental Center on Boardman Avenue.

 

This initiative aims to meet the community's growing demand for electronic fingerprinting required for employment, professional licensing, volunteer work, adoption, and other state-mandated background checks.

 

LiveScan technology captures fingerprints electronically and transmits them securely to the appropriate state agency for processing.

 

The Clerk's Office expects to assist a diverse clientele, including educators, healthcare professionals, childcare workers, nonprofit volunteers, and others needing fingerprint-based background checks for state licensing or employment purposes.

 

County Clerk Samuel Gedman emphasized the importance of local accessibility, stating that residents shouldn't have to travel long distances or navigate multiple agencies to obtain essential services.

 

By offering LiveScan fingerprinting locally, the Clerk's Office aims to make government services more accessible, efficient, and responsive to community needs.
