Where do I get my finger prints done?

U.S.A. Washington

Hello I am in Virginia and planning to transfer. I recently got my finger print kit and I was wondering exactly how or who do I go to get this done?

Also why does the process cost so much?? In total I would have spent over $180 in getting my license transferred. Every single step seems to have some form of a cost to it.. :banghead:

You can go to any law enforcement department (call first for time and cost). Take your own cards. I got mine CA prints done in TX at the police dept for $10.00 for 2 cards.

The cost of obtaining licensure in another state involves administrative actions that takes time and some one to do it. The cost usually includes the the professional license you are applying for for a year. Licenses and transfer to another state vary in cost depending the state you are applying in and their fee schedule. It usually takes 45 to 90 days to recieve your license from the new state after they recieve all of your completed paperwork and fees depending on their policy.

Call your local police or sheriff department to find out what days and times are convenient for them to do finger prints for you and what their fee is.

Good Luck!
