What does rejected fingerprints mean?
A. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) could not read your fingerprints because they were not clear. Some people, due to the condition of their hands, are unable to obtain good fingerprints. We suggest applying hand lotion daily two weeks prior to fingerprinting, if your hands are extremely dry. If your fingerprints are rejected one time, you will be scheduled to appear again for fingerprinting. There is no extra charge for this second fingerprinting.
