Fingerprinting – Career Education Systems

Fingerprint Cards

Request a fingerprint card from your pre-license course provider (Career Education Systems), or Kansas Pearson VUE exam center. You can also request a fingerprint card from the Kansas Real Estate Commission by emailing your name and mailing address to krec@ks.gov.

Take the fingerprint card, the Fingerprint Information sheet (found with the background waiver), and a valid photo ID to your local police department, county sheriff’s office, or the Topeka office of the Kansas Bureau of Investigation to be fingerprinted. You may need to schedule an appointment and/or pay a fee for the service.

Career Education Services also conducts fingerprinting. Please call for specific dates and times.

Instructions for Completing Fingerprint Cards:

Do not fold, staple, bend, tape, highlight, stamp, make extraneous marks, or modify the fingerprint card. Satisfactory fingerprints must be obtained using the services of an authorized entity.

Type or print all information in BLACK INK. DO NOT SIGN the fingerprint card until your signature can be witnessed by the official taking your fingerprints.

Processing

Submit the completed Background Waiver Form, Fingerprint Card, and $60, payable to KREC by credit card cashier’s check or money order, directly to the Kansas Real Estate Commission (KREC). Your fingerprints will then be submitted to the KBI and FBI to determine whether a criminal history exists in a process that takes about 10 days unless the fingerprints are rejected. You can submit your background check waiver and fingerprints before or after completing the examination.

Missouri Registration

All fingerprinting for the Missouri Real Estate Commission is done through the Missouri State Highway Patrol’s approved vendor, IDEMIA, to complete both the Missouri State Highway Patrol and the FBI background check. Register with the Missouri Automated Criminal History site at www.machs.mo.gov and provide the Missouri Real Estate Commission’s four-digit registration number, 0004.

Get Fingerprinted

Choose from the list of approved fingerprinting locations. Take your photo ID with you to the fingerprint site. While all sites operate on a first-come, first-served basis, scheduling an appointment is recommended as appointments are given precedence over walk-ins.

The fee for fingerprinting is $41.75. You can pay via credit or debit card when registering or on site with a check, money order, or cash (exact change only).
