The Illinois State Uniform Conviction Information Act (UCIA) live scan fingerprint background check provides an opportunity for individuals or employers to obtain a person's criminal history from the State of Illinois. Results of this check are mailed directly to the requesting agency or individual by the Illinois State Police.

The background check contains all conviction data collected by the Illinois State Police. An individual may grant permission to send the response to another individual or entity—such as an employee—by listing the other party as the "requestor".

Some reasons for an Illinois UCIA Background Check Request:

• Employment purposes
• Volunteer work
• Work or travel abroad
• Landlords
• Adoption
• Self-check
