How It Works for US-Based Applicants

NBI Renewal Canada has been processing NBI clearance applications since 2016. While we are based in Toronto, our service is fully remote — your NBI clearance is processed through NBI Manila, and the completed certificate is delivered to your US address via international courier (UPS or DHL).

The process is identical whether you are in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston, or any other US city.

Step-by-Step Process

  1. Submit your application online — Complete our secure application form with your personal details and upload a copy of your valid ID.
  2. Get fingerprinted locally — Visit any fingerprinting provider near you that offers ink and roll fingerprints on NBI Form No. 5 (the “Blue Form”). We will provide the form.
  3. Mail your fingerprint card to us — Send the completed Form No. 5 to our Toronto office via USPS, UPS, or FedEx.
  4. We handle everything with NBI Manila — We submit your application, follow up on processing, and handle any issues (including NBI HITs).
  5. Receive your NBI clearance — Your completed NBI clearance certificate is delivered to your US address via UPS or DHL international courier.

Where to Get Fingerprinted in the US

You need ink and roll fingerprints on NBI Form No. 5 (the “Blue Form”). This is different from the electronic LiveScan fingerprinting commonly used in the US. Here are some options:

  • UPS Store locations — Many UPS Store locations offer ink and roll fingerprinting services
  • Local police departments — Some police stations offer civilian fingerprinting for a small fee
  • Private fingerprinting companies — Search for “ink and roll fingerprinting near me” — confirm they can print on a form you provide (NBI Form No. 5)
  • Identogo / FieldPrint — National fingerprinting networks that may offer ink and roll at select locations

Important: When booking your appointment, specify that you need ink and roll fingerprinting on a form we provide (not electronic LiveScan, and not on an FBI FD-258 card). We will send you the NBI Form No. 5 after you submit your application.
