Does the criminal background check certification need to be apostilled for a Non-O/A Visa application?
I'll be applying for the non-o/a Visa through the Los Angeles consulate. my question is does the criminal background check certification need to be apostilled by the US Department of State?
Answer summary
When applying for the non-O/A Visa through the Los Angeles consulate, it is not necessary for the criminal background check certification to be apostilled by the US Department of State. Instead, applicants should complete an online FBI check with fingerprints via Livescan, which will provide the required seal in the approval document.

No. Just do the online FBI check with fingerprints via Livescan. The approval document comes back from the FBI with the required seal.
