Search your nearest notary public and get the photocopy of your degree Notarized. You must bring the original with you when processing the notarization.

You will find all the information you may need about the FBI Approved Channelers Here. The Fees and Turnaround Time for each agency.

Finally, you will need to obtain apostille for FBI Background Check. I used the expedited service of DC Apostille Inc. as they offer affordable prices and professional services.
