Hi everyone!
I will be attending Penn State University for upcoming school year and as part of the background check requirement, incoming students are asked to submit their fingerprints cards to the FBI. However, as an international student (Canadian), I am a bit lost with how to proceed with getting fingerprints in Canada and I just wanted to see if there are any one of you who are in a similar situation as me and I was hoping to get your advice on this matter (or work things out together).
As far as I know, I can get my fingerprints inked and rolled at local police. But I am confused with things like a) if I need to write something under FBI No, Miscellaneous No, Social Security No., and etc on the fingerprint form (I feel like I do not need to worry about providing that information but I am afraid that the FBI will reject my request due to failure to enter all information), and how to properly take care of the fingerprint form once fingerprints have been taken (... can I fold the form in half or should I just place it in a big envelope?)
I hope I can get some guidance (or work things out together) from someone who are currently in a similar situation or who have already went through this process!
