PROFESSIONAL DOCUMENT COORDINATION
Obtaining documents from the United States while living in Chile involves several steps. GMS brings them together in one coordinated service.
We arrange your fingerprint appointment, coordinate your FBI background check and federal apostille, and oversee delivery of the original document. You stay informed throughout, with a team you can contact in English.
Available as a standalone service or alongside your immigration process with GMS.

Practical answers to help you plan your request.
Officially called an Identity History Summary, it is a report issued by the Federal Bureau of Investigation based on a search of records associated with your fingerprints. It may be requested as part of an immigration or other administrative process.
An apostille authenticates the origin of a public document for international use. The federal apostille for an FBI report is issued by the U.S. Department of State. It does not certify the contents of the report or determine the outcome of an immigration application.
