Stupid question here, but are you referring to the LiveScan portion of the LTC app?

That would be the reasonable assumption since the Live Scan background check is the only part of the process DOJ is involved in.

Not the live scan but the other portion of the backround check if there is one???

Just called the SO, they said they do a deeper backround check other than the livescan. It takes about 4 weeks or so, I should be getting a call here in about 2 weeks!!!!!

They might, but they still have mandated deadlines. See the guides here: http://bit.ly/xfufXv

Are their checks limited to their own resources? Can they use these guys, for example? It appears that sometimes they have more comprehensive data, not sure how they do it.

Likely a stupid question, but is fingerprinting information obtained by one branch of the CA govt accessible by another? Several years ago, I had to obtain inked (i.e. non-electronic) fingerprints for a California licensing board. Do I need to get a separate LiveScan check for a CCW application?

Yes, you need a separate one for LTC. I've had my prints taken for my nursing license, employment, guard-card - all needed a new set of prints.

Thanks Librarian. Should have known CA wouldn't make any of this easy for me.

I spoke to an FBI agent on Tuesday and asked him that question. He said that it's just a basic criminal background check and isn't a comprehensive background check like you'd have for a secret clearance or TS clearance.

They just look for your criminal activity to verify you're not a loon..
