1. Contact CJIS to make an appointment for fingerprinting at the Bel Air MVA by calling 410.764.4501 and using option #5.  This is the fastest and easiest way to get fingerprinted.  Although it does cost approximately an additional $20—you will know immediately if any fingerprints were smudged and need to be redone before they are submitted.  If you choose to go to the local police station/sheriff’s office, please know that smudged prints will be returned and the process will need to be repeated—if you do select this route, you will be responsible for mailing your fingerprints to the CJIS address listed on the form.
