Additional Information
- An FBI-approved Channeler may only process requests for an individual who is a United States citizen or a lawful permanent resident. A lawful permanent resident is any person who is not a citizen of the U.S. and residing in the U.S. under legally recognized and lawfully recorded permanent residence as an immigrant (also known as “Permanent Resident Alien,” “Resident Alien Permit Holder,” and “Green Card Holder”).
- An FBI-approved Channeler cannot process a request for employment and/or licensing purposes within the United States. This type of request should be coordinated with the appropriate state identification bureau (or state/local police) for the correct procedures. Click Here For Utah
