Testing and Fingerprints

Idaho requires testing and fingerprinting for all residents wishing to hold a license. Idaho has partnered with  PSI to provide this service. 

ATTENTION: All Fingerprinting locations are down. Please follow the last two pages of the CHRI form for hard card instructions.

Testing Information

It is recommended that anybody interested in testing download the free  pre-licensing Candidate Handbook . This document gives important information in preparation for the exam.

To find the statutes and rules that are referenced in the above documents, go to Laws/Rules/Bulletins*.  NOTE: This is not a complete study guide, only an outline of topics in each exam.

Idaho does not require pre-licensing education.

I have a resident license in another state and am moving to Idaho, do I need to test again?

You do not need to test, but you will need to fingerprint. Click here for detailed instructions on switching your resident licenses to Idaho.

Can I use fingerprints that I had done for another purpose?

No, due to inter departmental restrictions other forms of fingerprinting cannot be used in lieu of the DOI fingerprinting process.

Can I use fingerprints that were taken for my insurance license in another state?

No.

Can I get my fingerprints done for Idaho in another state?

Yes, but it will add 6 to 8 WEEKS to the turnaround time. The last page of the CHRI Release/Non-Criminal Justice Form details the process.

Can I submit my fingerprints without going to a PSI location?

Yes. If you live more than 100 miles from a testing/fingerprinting, you are not required to use a PSI location. The last page of the CHRI Release/Non-Criminal Justice Form details the process.

Please note this method will increase the turnaround time from 7-10 business days to 6 to 8 WEEKS . You will also still be required to pay the fingerprinting fee to PSI upon submitting your fingerprint packet.

I’m a veteran, will the GI bill cover testing/fingerprinting?

Yes. All Idaho insurance licensing exams for the producers/bail/adjuster licenses are currently qualified through the Idaho Veteran’s Administration for U.S. Veterans to receive reimbursement through the GI Bill® Instructions and information.
