We capture fingerprints electronically with our advanced LiveScan machine. With LiveScan fingerprinting, there is no ink involved. Your fingerprints are rolled across a glass plate and digitally scanned. It is faster, cleaner, and more efficient than traditional ink fingerprinting. After you have been fingerprinted, in addition to our fee, you must visit the Civil Applicant Payment System (CAPS) and pay to have your fingerprints sent electronically to the FDLE and the FBI. This must be completed within 30 days, after which the fingerprints will no longer be available.
Important Notes:
When requesting a Level II background check in Florida, an ORI number is required. If an ORI number is not provided, the background check cannot be completed, and you will receive only a printed fingerprint card to submit to the requesting organization.
We do not take photographs with fingerprint submissions. If your organization is requesting a photograph to accompany the fingerprints, we will not be able to complete your fingerprinting.
What is an ORI number?
ORI stands for Originating Agency Identifier Number. These numbers tell the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) why you need the background check and to whom to send your report. Your ORI number ensures your fingerprints are sent to the correct entity. Typically, an ORI number starts with 2-5 letters followed by numbers to make a 9-digit code. When requesting fingerprints for employment, the employer should provide you with the ORI number.
