Fingerprinting and Submissions, Everything Managed Internally

Globeia handles every submission through its own offices: Globeia Inc. in Washington, DC for the FBI, and Globeia Incorporated in Toronto for the fingerprint submission to the RCMP. By managing the entire procedure internally, we keep full control over your documents from the moment you hand them over until final submission.

Choose the Full Package
Option A · Fingerprints only

We do Step 1. Steps 2 to 6 are yours.

We take your prints on the right card, verify your identity and issue a Letter of Identity Verification. Then you manage the rest across two countries.

  • ✕You find a courier and ship the original card abroad
  • ✕You submit to the authority, on its form, in its sequence
  • ✕You arrange the apostille in the issuing country and ship again
  • ✕One miss at any authority sends the file back to Step 1

Fine if your employer or lawyer is handling the rest. Most people are not in that position.

The authorities set the clock. You control only when Step 1 happens.

Book your visit now and the remaining steps start the same week.

RCMP Accreditation & Processing Disclaimer

RCMP accreditation is held exclusively by Globeia Incorporated in Toronto, Canada. Globeia in Glasgow is not RCMP-accredited, and Globeia is not endorsed by the RCMP, the FBI, FINRA, or any government authority. Fingerprints for the RCMP Criminal Record Check are collected in ink on the official C-216C form and mailed to Globeia Incorporated in Toronto, which submits them to the RCMP. All Criminal Record Checks, FBI Identity History Summaries and regulatory results are issued directly by the respective authority, not Globeia.

One clearance, two ways to get it

FBI Background Check from Glasgow: A Client's Journey

Meet Lucas. He lives in Glasgow and needs an FBI Police Clearance for his visa. Lucas is a composite of the clients we see every week. Here is how his clearance goes when he does the fingerprints and manages the rest himself, and how it goes when Globeia runs the whole file.

On his own

Fingerprints in Glasgow, everything else by post and email

  1. Week 1
    Gets fingerprinted locally.

    The shop posts the card to a U.S. vendor Lucas has never spoken to.

  2. Week 4
    Card rejected.

    Two impressions are unreadable. Nobody checked before it shipped. Back to Step 1.

  3. Week 7
    Result arrives, in English, unapostilled.

    Lucas now has to find an apostille provider in the U.S. and post the original again.

  4. Week 15
    Finally files.

    Four providers, four invoices, one missed visa appointment.

With Globeia

One visit to his home in Glasgow, one file, one team

  1. Day 1

    Identity verified, prints checked on the spot, Letter of Identity Verification issued.

  2. Week 1

  3. Week 3
    Result received and checked.

    Apostille requested the same day, no re-posting, no new provider.

  4. Week 7
    Ready-to-file clearance in hand.
