Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to let anyone know of any changes in my contact information?

See Answer:

Yes. You should contact the Board of Fingerprinting by mail, fax, or e-mail ([email protected], if you've filed an email authorization form) as soon as possible when you have a change in contact information, particularly your mailing address. The Board will send information to the last known address. Some of this information may be time sensitive, such as a notice of hearing.

If you do not notify the Board of an address change, you may not get time-sensitive information. In turn, your application for a good cause exception may denied. For example, if you do not notify the Board of an address change, you may not get your notice of hearing. If you then fail to appear at your hearing, your good cause exception application may be denied.

Whom do I need to notify of a name change?

See Answer:

You should notify both the Department of Public Safety (DPS) and the Board of Fingerprinting of a legal name change. You will need to provide a copy of the documentation that officially recorded the name change. For instance, if you get married, you will need to submit a copy of the marriage certificate. For information on how to submit documentation of your name change to DPS, you may contact DPS at (602) 223-2279.
