GAPS - Georgia Applicant Processing Service

Please direct applicants to https://fieldprintgeorgia.com/ to register for fingerprinting and background check services. Gemalto/Thales should no longer be contacted. This site is also for new GAP agency enrollment.

• Do you want to receive your state and authorized federal criminal history record checks for employment or licensing within 2 BUSINESS DAYS?
  
• Is your current practice of printing applicants, mailing fingerprint cards and waiting days for results to be mailed too CUMBERSOME?
  
• If so, register with the Georgia Applicant Processing Service (GAPS) and have results returned to a secure web server the same day or next day!
  
• GAPS provides agencies submitting fingerprint cards the option to have applicant background checks processed electronically in a non-criminal justice environment. This process provides timely search results and decreases rejections due to poor fingerprint quality of inked fingerprint cards.
  
• Fixed GAPS offices will be located throughout the state so that Georgia residents will not travel more than 25 – 30 miles to be fingerprinted.
  
• Search results and criminal history records or “rapsheets” will be available for the agency to retrieve directly from the GAPS website within 24-48 hours after the applicant is fingerprinted and the transaction submitted to GCIC.
• Primary ID for fingerprinting at a Georgia Field Print collection site:

Visit the GAPS website for complete details on the background check process, print site locations, and to register your agency. You may also contact GCIC at (404) 244-2639, option 2 or via email at [email protected] for additional information or assistance.
