Saturday Live Scan in Oakland for a teacher credential

Q: Which form do I use for CTC / teacher credential Live Scan?

California residents use CTC Form 41-LS (Request for Live Scan Service), which includes BCIA 8016 privacy notices. Download the official PDF from CTC — Form 41-LS at https://docs.ctc.ca.gov/document/download/29865 — and follow 41-LS Instructions. Do not invent an ORI on a blank DIY BCIA 8016.

Q: Can I invent or look up the CTC ORI myself?

No. CTC's 41-LS instructions say the ORI is the "CTC number included - do not change." Pre-filled agency fields must stay as shown. Incorrect ORI/mail code can delay or misroute results. Never publish or guess a CTC ORI — use the official form only.

Q: How much does CTC Live Scan cost?

There is no honest single Live Scan government-fee total. CTC's fees table for California Resident / Live Scan is "Varies - pay LS Operator." Rolling fees are the shop table on this page. DOJ/FBI processing: check the requesting agency — do not invent a package dollar. Separately, the CTC COC online application fee is $50.00 + $2.65 = $52.65 — that is a CTC application fee, not a Live Scan fee (CL-900).

Q: Does a Certificate of Clearance let me teach?

No. CL-900: the COC is not the same as a clear teaching or services credential and does not authorize instruction or services in schools. Its purpose is verification that you completed a professional fitness review.

Q: Do I email my Live Scan form to CTC?

No. CTC: do not email your form to the Commission — scans are sent directly to CTC electronically. Print three copies of 41-LS, take them to the Live Scan site, and retain a copy for your records (CL-900; Fees and Fingerprinting).

Q: Where do results go / how do I check status?

Results go to CTC via DOJ, not to you. Keep your ATI. Check status with ATI + date of birth at https://applicantstatus.doj.ca.gov/. Official ranges: 3–7 days (DOJ) on CTC's fees table; CL-900 usually within 10 working days. Also check CTC Online for Commission receipt.

Q: Cheapest / earliest Saturday walk-in in Oakland?

Cheapest rolling: Allscan at $23.00 (Sat 10:00 am – 12:00 pm; 6th-floor Saturday access UNVERIFIED). Earliest open: LPG and Certifix @ UPS #3270 both 9:00 am — LPG $30; Certifix is walk-in-only Saturday and $45 cash / $47 card on the Certifix operator page. UPS #7098 remains a PrintScan CONFLICT (appointment-until-proven).

Who this is for: You need fingerprints for a California teaching credential, Certificate of Clearance (COC), or other Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CTC) document, and you want a Saturday walk-in Live Scan in Oakland with the official CTC Form 41-LS.

Not for: TSA PreCheck / IdentoGO (different vendor). Readers inventing or looking up a CTC ORI on a blank BCIA 8016. Anyone who only needs a cash-focused list — use Saturday cash Live Scan in Oakland. Anyone who needs every Oakland Saturday walk-in without the teacher/CTC angle — use Saturday walk-in Live Scan in Oakland.

How this was verified

Rows below are only Oakland street-address shops whose California DOJ Public Live Scan Sites hours include Saturday and Walk-in(s) (accessed 2026-09-01). CTC facts are from official Commission pages (same access date).

Primary shops: CA DOJ Live Scan locations — Alameda County + dedicated DOJ detail pages linked in each row (accessed 2026-09-01)
CTC: Fees and Fingerprinting, 41-LS Instructions, CL-900 Certificate of Clearance, Form 41-LS PDF
Operator pages used only for gotchas already flagged (Certifix cash/card; PrintScan conflict). They never created a row and never invented an ORI or a Live Scan government-fee total.

Nobody was called. Nobody was emailed. DOJ itself says to confirm hours and fees before you go. If a cell could not be verified, it is marked UNVERIFIED or CONFLICT.

Go / no-go before you leave

Form 41-LS from CTC first. Download the official CTC Form 41-LS. Complete section 3 (applicant personal info). Print three copies per CL-900. Do not email the form to CTC — scans go to the Commission electronically. ORI and related agency fields are pre-filled — “CTC number included - do not change”. Never invent an ORI on a blank BCIA 8016.
Unexpired photo ID. Expired IDs are not accepted (DOJ Applicants, accessed 2026-09-01).
Fees — keep them separate. (a) Rolling fee = the shop’s price in the table below (varies by location). (b) DOJ/FBI processing = check your requesting agency / CTC guidance; do not invent a single Live Scan government-fee total. CTC’s own Live Scan fee cell is “Varies - pay LS Operator.” (c) Optional separate CTC COC application fee online: $50.00 + $2.65 = $52.65 — this is a CTC application fee, not a Live Scan fee (CL-900).
Results go to CTC via DOJ, not to you. Keep your ATI number.
Store hours ≠ fingerprint hours. UPS / print-shop pages advertise shipping or notary hours. Live Scan Saturday hours are the DOJ column.

Short CTC context

California Education Code §§ 44340 & 44341 require fingerprint clearance from DOJ and FBI through the Commission for credentials, certificates, permits, and waivers issued by CTC. Clearance through other agencies, employers, or states does not exempt you (Fees and Fingerprinting).

A Certificate of Clearance is not a clear teaching credential. It does not authorize instruction or services in schools; its purpose is verification of a professional fitness review (CL-900).

CTC does not maintain its own Live Scan shop directory. It points applicants to the DOJ Public Live Scan Sites list. Any DOJ Live Scan site works for CTC when Form 41-LS ORI fields are correct — this page does not invent “CTC-certified” shop badges.

Sorted by Saturday open time, then rolling fee. “Walk-in & appt” means DOJ lists both — appointments may still jump the line. Any DOJ Live Scan site works when your 41-LS ORI is correct; these are Oakland Saturday walk-ins only.

Still skip appointment-only / weekday-only

This teacher-credential page does not duplicate the full skip list. Appointment-only Saturday Oakland rows (e.g. Aisha’s Mobile Notary, All In One Mobile Notary, Better Taxes & Consulting, Crowell & Associates, Peaches’ Playhouse) and weekday-only rows are not Saturday walk-in. See Saturday walk-in Live Scan in Oakland for the filtered walk-in set and skip context.

After you scan

Keep the ATI number from the Live Scan session. Results go to CTC via DOJ, not to you (DOJ Applicants; CTC Fees and Fingerprinting). Check fingerprint submission status with ATI + date of birth on the DOJ Applicant Status tool. Official timeframes: Live Scan standard 3–7 days (DOJ) on CTC’s fees table; CL-900 says fingerprint/character processing is usually completed within 10 working days. Also check your CTC Online educator account for whether the Commission received fingerprints.
