Out-of-State Applicant FD-258 Card Scanning

FDLE-AUTHORIZED, MAIL-IN, DIGITIZE AND SUBMIT TO FLORIDA STATE AGENCIES

If you’re an Out-of-State Applicant in need of submitting fingerprints for Level 2 Screening as a requirement for Florida licensing or pre-employment screening, and you lack access to a local Livescan vendor that can electronically communicate with FDLE and Florida State agencies, we have the perfect solution for you.

With our Hard Card Scanning Method, you can rely on our FDLE-authorized Livescan vendor who is certified to digitize fingerprint images from your FD-258 cards. This innovative process involves converting your paper-form fingerprint card into an electronic Livescan file, which is then securely submitted to FDLE and Florida State Agencies for the required screening purposes.

To initiate the Card Scanning service, follow the instructions at Out-of-State Order Page | IDENTICO (myidentico.com)

Once we receive your request, we will generate a service invoice using QuickBooks, which will be sent directly to your email. This invoice will outline the total cost of the service and provide options for payment, including  credit/debit card or e-check.

The invoiced fee will cover the following expenses:

(a) Shipping two FD-258 cards to your address via USPS Priority Mail.
(b) A pre-paid and pre-addressed return shipping envelope for you to send the completed cards back to us.
(c) Fees associated with scanning and digitizing your fingerprints.
(d) Governmental fees imposed by FDLE for the submission and any applicable state taxes.

After you receive the FD-258 cards from us, please visit your local Police Department or Sheriff’s Office to request the “Rolled Fingerprints” or “Fingerprinting on FD-258 Card” service. It is  important to ensure that all the necessary information is correctly filled in on the fingerprint card.

Please use black ink only to write or print legibly in the highlighted fields, following the example and instructions provided. It is crucial to include the ORI Number specific to your fingerprinting purpose to ensure accurate processing. Taking care to complete the card accurately will help expedite the subsequent steps of the process.

Your VECHS Number

FDLE-VECHS

Volunteer & Employee Criminal History System at FDLE

If your ORI number begins with certain letters such as EDOH, EDCF, EAHC, EAPD, and so on, and you would like your fingerprint to be retained by the Agency for Healthcare Administration for the next 5 years and be eligible for cross-use by state agencies using the Clearinghouse for screening, you have the option to submit an eligible passport photo along with your completed fingerprint card package. This step is optional and provides additional benefits for certain ORI numbers. Photo Requirements for visual reference a. Similar to a passport photo, the photo must be taken centered in front of a gray backdrop with the top of your shoulders visible, space equal to or greater than one-quarter of the overall photo size above your head, and your face taking up approximately 50% of the width of the photo with an even 25% space on either side of your face (see diagram above). b. No hats, glasses, or teeth showing. c. The full face must be visible. d. Look directly into the camera, eyes must be open and staring forward. It is NOT a glamour shot, so do not worry about hair or makeup unless it is obstructing your face; these images are usually only ever used for facial recognition software.

Once we receive the completed FD-258 cards from you, we will digitize the fingerprints and submit them to FDLE for processing. We will then notify you by email, providing you with the TCN (Transaction Control Number) assigned to your transaction. You can use this TCN to check the status of your screening at https://cchinet.fdle.state.fl.us/search/app/tcnlookup?2. 

Typically, it takes 3 to 5 business days for FDLE, FBI, and the Florida Regulatory agency to determine the results of your Level 2 Screening, depending on the quality of the fingerprints captured on the FD-258 cards. If the TCN lookup shows that the screening is completed but the regulatory state agency has not updated your records, we recommend contacting the state agency directly with your TCN to inquire about manually tracking your report.

If the tracking number for the return label indicates that the shipment back to us was successful, but you haven’t received a TCN number from us via email, please feel free to call us at 954-239-8590 ext. 2 during regular business hours for further assistance.

We prioritize recordkeeping and confidentiality. After 30 days from the date we submit your fingerprint scans to FDLE, we securely destroy the physical FD-258 cards that you sent to us. This ensures that your personal information and fingerprints are handled with the utmost care and protection. You can have peace of mind knowing that your information is treated with strict confidentiality throughout the entire process.
