NMLS Services
BIG, through its sister company Fieldprint, Inc., is the sole provider of fingerprinting collection services for the National Mortgage Licensing System and Registry (NMLS).
Through this nationwide program, mortgage loan originators can schedule and get fingerprinted at any one of BIG/Fieldprint’s more than 1,900 active electronic fingerprinting locations. Our Livescan technology helps to improve process efficiencies and lower error rates while providing a convenient and professional fingerprinting experience.
The partnership between BIG/Fieldprint and NMLS helps to fulfill the requirements of the Secure and Fair Enforcement for Mortgage Licensing Act of 2008 (the SAFE Act), which requires all individuals applying for a mortgage loan originator license through NMLS to submit to a fingerprint-based FBI criminal background check. All existing state-licensed mortgage loan originators must also provide fingerprints to the NMLS and request a national criminal background check prior to a date established by their state regulator.
