Like I told the staff when they said how much the fingerprinting cost, this beats the heck out of having to go twenty miles to the closest State Police barracks where they do fingerprinting, take a number, sit in a room full of hacking, coughing, sneezing, screaming kids and sketchy individuals for three hours only to be treated like a common criminal by the staff every step of the way. Making an online appointment could NOT have been easier. I got there about 13 minutes early, filling out the iPad form took five minutes, the actual printing is done optically and sent digitally to NICS and other agencies. I had my receipt and was on my way fifteen minutes after arrival. Worth every penny. read more

I have been here a couple of times now finger printing services. I arrived for my 9a appointment. They were closed. Employees arrived minutes later. Apparently, it was leave your office keys at home day. When the manager or supervisor arrived, it was almost 30 minutes later. I think what annoyed me the most was that no one apologized to the other customer or myself for opening late or any inconvenience. read more

I need fingerprinting and a background check for the Maryland Board of Physicians. I was able to walk-in and have the whole process handled quickly and efficiently by a pleasant staff. The office was clean. read more

This place doesn't have a good communication, I wasn't sure if I'll need the background check or the fingerprint, I did the fingerprint but when she gave me the postcard, so I told her I'm sorry but I just need a letter showing that I don't have any criminal record, and she said ok so what you need is a background check instead of fingerprints. So I had to pay to the fingerprint and background check and just need a background check. A good place wouldn't never charge a customer for 02 items knowing that he really need 01. I'll never recommend this place for anyone. read more

I'm not one to write online reviews, but, the service I received at AIS was so exceptional, I must rave about it. The two young ladies that were working were the most professional, polite and respectful employees I've come across in a long time. They greeted everyone who came in, answered questions without attitude and really went out of their way to make sure the customers had exactly what they needed. It's rare to see such a level of customer service. Give these two a nice year-end bonus! read more
