The public security bureau will certainly check the criminal record when it gives an ID card to a citizen. This is the minimum requirement of the public security bureau. The police can only find out relevant personal information when checking ID cards. However, the police with relevant authority can also find out whether the identity cards of residents have illegal records. The resident ID card of the People's Republic of China is a proof of citizenship to prove that you live in People's Republic of China (PRC). The first application for resident identity card (application for collection) is as follows: 1. When citizens who have reached the age of 16 apply for resident identity cards for the first time, they should bring their household registration books to the local police station or accreditation center for handling; When citizens under the age of 16 apply for resident identity cards for the first time, they should bring their household registration books and be accompanied by their guardians to apply. Guardians generally need to provide proof of identity (if the citizen and guardian are not in the same household registration book or the guardian is not the head of the household, they also need to provide proof of guardianship, such as birth certificate), and take photos with citizens under 16 years old on the spot to ensure the accuracy of citizenship under 16 years old. Due to the need to collect portrait and fingerprint information on site, the guardian 16 years old is not allowed to apply for a resident ID card for the first time, and the guardian and himself must be present at the same time to apply; 2, where the household registration window print "population information checklist", check the population information; 3. After the population information is correct, the acceptance window collects portraits and fingerprints, and then directly prints the Registration Form for Resident Identity Card Application; 4. The applicant or guardian shall sign the registration form of the resident identity card and get the resident identity card.
