FBI/CIA name check in advance

Hi,
As it was already mentioned in many posts here FBI/CIA name check takes a big part of time for AOS.
Is it possible to initiate this check even before sending documents
for AOS ? i.e. to obtain this name check in advance!
Like a police clearence, which you can do yourself.
Thanks for your help.

Thanks LucyMO,
I've noticed your answers/comments always are exact and helpful.
One more thing you probably can clarify for me.
If my legal status @US ends after I sent I-485 forms, will I be legal for
BCIS ?
I've heard that I'll be legal until INS informs me positive or negative
answer on my application. Is it true ?
Thanks.
 
if you file AOS papers BEFORE Your current legal status expires -- you will be in legal "pending Adjustment of status" status all the way until the interview.
