Fingerprints At Home - An Easy How-To Guide

[@cutenezz777]

This is very, very helpful, especially if you're living abroad and need fingerprints taken, so thank you so, so much!

I hope to find inkpad in my remote village in Colombia tomorrow to submit all. The laws are changing here so getting harder to get visas. Didn’t need this 6 Months ago!

[@siobhandonovan4709]

The 'don't overthink it' technique really works. I needed prints to apply for nationalization abroad, so I ordered the forms on amazon and went at it. Maybe spent like 20 mins? I just got my paperwork approved. Thank you so much!

[@smilinkylen5621]

I have to mail this internationally and was super worried I would screw something up and get rejected and have to remail. Thank you for the advice of "dont overthink it" That really helped me chill out about this.

[@dylanvs9264]

Oh man, I'm glad I watched this video from you guys. I ordered my first suppressor from you guys a week ago and when I got my print kit in this morning I was rolling them, they looked 10x better than the example in this video but I was freaking out about some of the lines being heavier and some very slight smudges in some small areas. Thank God, now I know I can just send in one of the 5 cards I set aside 😆

[@TankFitness]

Thanks for this video. Quickly realized I was over thinking it. Got mine approved. For those still stressed, this should be some encouragement: I have a scar on one of my fingers and the print is weird. Wrote "scar " in the corresponding box. I also smudged the 4 fingers at once box when handling the card, so I did that print around the smudges so my one fingertip wasn't all on. Again, they came back approved

At my school, we had to do this as an assignment. When I did it neatly, my classmates asked me jokingly if I went to jail before, the way I did it so nicely. I told them yes. After a moment, they asked me: *"Pinnochio, why isn't your nose growing?"*

[@dannyhage_]

Thanks so much for this video. It's very helpful to see someone actually doing the fingerprints on a piece of paper. I have a question about the 'Address' box: I am temporarily living abroad - should I put in my current address abroad or my permanent residence in the US?

Do you have to put full social or just the last 4?

I read that for any atf application, you have to fill out two cards and one has to go to the highest branch of your jurisdictional law enforcement. Is this true?

If they're accepting those prints in the video there's zero chance they're even looking at them lol. Don't smudge, roll your prints. Thank you for the video letting us know that the ATF doesn't really care. I know locally the Oklahoma State Bureau is very picky, as is the IRS with their print cards.
