TSA Authorizes NATA Compliance Services To Help Alien Flight Candidates

NATA Will Collect Fingerprints

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has authorized the National Air Transportation Association Compliance Services (NATACS) to expand the National Fingerprint Collection Clearinghouse (NFCC) to certify and collect fingerprints for alien flight training candidates and other designated individuals who must comply with the new security regulations under 49CFR Part 1552 and for other TSA-designated programs.  The NATACS/NFCC network can now assist with the collection of fingerprints internationally for these programs. 

Commenting on the agreement, National Air Transportation Association (NATA) president James K. Coyne said, "We are quite pleased that the TSA has agreed to expand NATA Compliance Service's work scope so we can assist the flight training community in complying with the Alien Flight Training Interim Final Rule released last fall." 
 
NATACS will train and certify Fingerprint Collectors worldwide in accordance with NATACS procedures as approved by the TSA.  NATACS/NFCC processes all fingerprints from the collection network to ensure compliance with stringent tracking procedures.  The NATACS/NFCC network includes certified collectors at FBOs, security companies, drug testing labs, flight schools, air carriers, and others.

Language from the site includes the following:

"TSA is pleased to announce that fingerprinting of candidates in certain international cities is now available through an expanded partnership with NATA Compliance Services. 

"In addition, TSA will now permit fingerprint collectors certified by NATA Compliance Services to fingerprint candidates who apply for training at the flight school where the collector is located, in addition to candidates who apply for training at other flight schools.  Both of these enhancements represent substantial changes to TSA policies on fingerprint collection.  TSA believes that these changes will streamline the fingerprinting process for candidates and the flight training industry, and intends to closely monitor progress to determine the effectiveness of these changes.
