The National Indian Gaming Commission (NIGC) processes fingerprints submitted by tribes for background investigations of primary management officials (PMO) and key employees (KE). Prior to issuing a gaming license to a PMO or KE, a tribe is required to perform a fingerprint check through the FBI records system as part of the background investigation on each applicant. The criminal history record information (CHRI) obtained as a result of the check assists the tribe in determining the applicant’s eligibility for employment.
Accurate Biometrics is approved by the National Indian Gaming Commission (NIGC) to provide live scan hardware for Tribal Gaming. We have a history of contract performance with the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) for FBI Channeling and support the fingerprint needs of many tribes throughout the country.
FBI CHRI responses offer criminal history information maintained in the NGI database from all state, federal and other reporting agencies. The response is a comprehensive report that includes all active arrests and convictions reported to the FBI as of the date the fingerprint-based background check is submitted to the FBI for processing.
