Hi, I'm in the U.S., Philly if it helps, and I'm trying to find out where I can get fingerprinted. A lot of places around here only do fingerprinting for a company called Cogent which is absolutely no use to me because that's all scanned and I need someone who can just help me fill out the fingerprint card.

A google search has resulted only in a sketchy-looking van.

Can I just go to a police station or fbi building and ask to have this done? What did you do - how did you find where to go in your city/town?

Sorry if this is an obvious question. This whole process is confusing. Thanks.

There are two trucks on 16th and Callowhill who do ink fingerprints. They are hard to miss.

i reckon they are both the same. i didn't get my CBC back yet, so I can't confirm that they are faultless. my friend used rosa's and hers turned out fine.

You usually can go to your local police department. Call ahead and ask them if and when they provide the service.

yeah i got mine done at a police station but i would call ahead first and ask specifically for ink prints because not all police stations do ink prints. only 2 in my city did so don't do what i did and go to 2 different police stations because you didn't call ahead of time

If you are in America and making a request, it is the results that you want and will send to Korea, not the prints. Whether they are done in ink on paper or scanned into a computer really doesn't matter. If I had my choice, I'd rather not get my hands dirty.

I'm from Philly, too. I called the police station in the township where I live, and made sure they did ink printing for submission to the FBI. They will not do it if you live in another township. Cost about $10 and took 15 minutes.

Police station, dude. Don't go to a van on the street, please?
