What an FBI fingerprint background check is

An FBI background check is a search of the FBI’s national criminal history records using your fingerprints. The report is officially called an Identity History Summary. Because it is matched on fingerprints and not on a name, it is the check that foreign governments, licensing boards and many employers ask for.

For what appears on the report, see what shows up on an FBI fingerprint check and what an FBI background check includes.
