Follow Fresno County’s provider enrollment sequence first. The county supplies the Live Scan request during its in-person enrollment step; the fingerprint visit is a separate part of the process.
Get the county request before fingerprinting
Use the county’s current enrollment page for the full sequence. Its in-person appointment includes checking identification and supplying the background-check request. Do not replace that request with another employer’s form.
Arrange the fingerprint visit
The county directs applicants to an approved location and says the care provider is responsible for fingerprinting costs. Its published instructions give a 90-day completion window. Check your own enrollment instructions and dates rather than treating this guide as a personal deadline notice.
Compare locations, ask for the total for your IHSS form, and take the documents the operator requests.
Keep and return the right copies
The county instructs applicants to retain a copy and receipt and mail a copy of the Live Scan form to its office. Use the current mailing details on the county page; do not assume the enrollment campus and mailing address are interchangeable.
For enrollment questions
Fresno County lists (559) 600-6666, option 4 for Public Authority questions. Contact the county for eligibility or enrollment decisions; a fingerprint shop cannot make those decisions for it.
A few useful answers
Frequently asked questions
Can a fingerprint shop enroll me as an IHSS provider?
The fingerprint visit is only one part of county enrollment. Follow the county’s online and in-person enrollment instructions.
Should I use the form from a previous job?
Use the Live Scan request provided for your IHSS enrollment. A previous employer’s form is not a substitute.
Does finishing the fingerprint appointment mean I can be paid?
No. The county must complete its enrollment and eligibility process. Check its current instructions for the remaining steps.
