Live scan is preferred by virtually all agencies today. It captures digital fingerprints, submits them electronically, and returns results faster. Ink cards are increasingly refused by state and federal agencies.

You apply through the Arkansas State Police. PhilMoCo provides step-by-step guidance through the entire ORI application process as part of your purchase support.
