LiveScan Services Now Available from City of Hiram

Are you in need of authorized federal criminal history record checks for employment or licensing? Well, you can now receive these checks from the City of Hiram using their recently SPLOST purchased LiveScan system.

Livescan is, essentially, a sophisticated scanner and personal computer that captures fingerprint images and demographic data and submits this information to GBI. GBI conducts a search of its criminal history records using the fingerprint images.  In some cases, these images are also forwarded to the FBI where a Federal Criminal History Record search is also conducted.

There are many jobs that require the prospective employee to be fingerprinted and provide an official background check through the Georgia Crime Information Center.  With the purchase of the LiveScan system, the City of Hiram is now a local, expedient option available to the Paulding area and beyond.

“We recognize that there is a demand for these services and those in need should not have to travel far to obtain their personal records at a reasonable cost,” commented Robbie Rokovitz, city manager for the City of Hiram. “Our LiveScan system provides yet another layer of convenience for individuals who must present a certified background check in order to begin employment in their field of choice,” Rokovitz continued.
