I am a Korean American female currently living in Seoul looking for work. I have a FBI criminal background check that is still valid. I got it while I was still in the States. However, it will expire in a month or so, and I do not want to go all the way back to the States to get another background check. I was curious if there is a way to get it while staying in Seoul.

I currently have an F4 visa but need to get a new background check in case schools ask for it.

Does anyone know a way to get a new FBI criminal background check without having to go back to the States?

I hear theres a way to mail it overseas but I am worried it will take too long as maling internationally takes awhile. If anyone knows anything please let me know.

Print out the standard fingerprint form on the FBI website and then take it to a police station here to get fingerprinted. After that, you can mail your prints to the FBI. However, I don't think the FBI will be willing to send your results to an international address.

I sent my fingerprints and application to the FBI in early October. I just got off the phone with them and I am still not in their database, and they are opening mail from Oct. 16 right now. Very long wait.
