In addition, a criminal history background check must be furnished on each person listed
above and in subparagraph 17. This may be done as follows:
a. Utah residents: If any person listed has been a resident of Utah for at least one year, he/she
must have a criminal history background check run by the Utah Bureau of Criminal Identification
(BCI). Two forms must be submitted to BCI: (1) “Application for Criminal History Record Review”
(BCI Form 98-1-03) and (2) “Waiver” (authorizing BCI to forward the results directly to DABC).
Copies of these forms are available on the web at
http://www.bci.utah.gov/Records/RecOwnRecord.html or at:
Utah Bureau of Criminal Identification
3888 W 5400 S
PO Box 148280
Salt Lake City UT 84114-8280
Tel: 801-965-4445 Fax: 801-965-4749
Note that Form 98-1-03 requires fingerprints (which can be taken at the BCI office or at any local
law enforcement agency). Submit the forms together with a processing fee of $10.00 to BCI. BCI
will directly notify DABC if the person has a criminal history or has been cleared. In most cases,
BCI will notify DABC of the results within a week or two after BCI receives your completed forms.
b. Non Residents: Out of state residents or persons who have resided in Utah for less than one
year must have a criminal history background check run by the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
zWrite a letter requesting a background check “for personal review”. (suggested form letter
enclosed)
zHave fingerprints taken on a standard fingerprint card that can be obtained from a local police
station or criminal identification bureau. You may download the fingerprint card here:
http://www.fbi.gov/hq/cjisd/pdf/fpcardb.pdf
Submit the fingerprints with the request.
zInclude a certified check or money order for $18.00 payable to the U.S. Treasury.
Send to:
Federal Bureau of Investigations
Atten: Special Correspondence Unit
1000 Custer Hollow Road
Clarksburg, West Virginia 26306
zThe FBI will send a written response to the person making the request.
zForward the original response document from the FBI to the DABC.
Because there is currently a waiting period of up to six months for FBI background checks, the
applicant may get a national background check from a third-party provider and be licensed while
waiting for the FBI check to arrive. The applicant must still provide the FBI check when it becomes
available.
c. Third-Party National Background Check Rules and Procedures: An application that requires
F.B.I. criminal history background report(s) may be included on a commission meeting agenda, and
may be considered by the commission for issuance of a license, permit, or package agency if:
1). the applicant has completed all requirements to apply for the license, permit, or
package agency other than providing the required F.B.I. criminal history background report(s);
2). the applicant attests in writing that he or she is not aware of any criminal conviction
Rev 5.25.07
American LegalNet, Inc.
www.FormsWorkflow.com
of any person identified in the application that would disqualify the applicant from applying for
and holding the license, permit, or package agency;
3). the applicant attests in writing that all request(s) for any required F.B.I. criminal
history background report(s) have been submitted to the F.B.I, and provides the following
information and documentation:
(a) the date the request(s) were submitted to the F.B.I.
(b) a copy of the written request(s) submitted to the F.B.I.
(c) a copy of the fingerprint card(s) submitted to the F.B.I.;
4). the applicant at the time of application supplies the department with a current criminal
history background report conducted by a third-party background check reporting service on any
person for which an F.B.I. background check is required; and
5). the applicant stipulates in writing that if an F.B.I. report shows a criminal conviction
that would disqualify the applicant from holding the license, permit, or package agency, the
applicant shall immediately surrender the license, permit, or package agency to the department.
A suggested attestation/stipulation letter that satisfies the above requirements is enclosed.
A third party national criminal background check can be obtained by;
• searching the yellow pages under Background Screening
• searching the internet under Background Screening
Because the DABC is State Agency, we cannot recommend any one background screening
service over another. It is your responsibility however, to obtain the most complete, nationwide,
criminal history available for the application process.
19.
Applicant agrees to immediately notify the department of any change in ownership,
management, and if a corporation, any change in the officers/directors, and understands that
failure to do so may result in immediate suspension of license.
20.
Have you as an applicant, or any proprietor, partner, managing agent, director, officer,
stockholder owning at least 20% corporation stock, or if a limited liability company, any
member owning at least 20% of the company, had a state alcoholic beverage license, permit, or
