Teachers and professionals moving abroad do you need an apostilled FBI background check for your visa, overseas contract, or new job?
Before you send anything, stop right there.
An FBI background check is a federal document. That means it must be apostilled by the U.S. Department of State not the Texas Secretary of State.
Sending it to the wrong office can cost you valuable time and delay your:
- Visa application
- Teaching contract
- International job start date
- Relocation plans
Federal processing can take longer, so don’t wait until the last minute. We’ll help you understand the process, obtain the correct report, and avoid the mistakes that cause unnecessary delays.
