What is an ORI?

The ORI number stands for “Originating Agency Identification” and it’s typically a 9-digit identifier that is associated with the specific agency. You need to know your ORI number to schedule any Level II background check for the FDLE.

When ordering a Level II background check in Florida you must have an ORI number. Once the fingerprinting professional completes your background check, they send it over to the Florida Agency associated with the ORI number.

The OCA is the Controlling Agency Identifier provided by DCF to identify the provider requesting the background check. Without both the ORI and OCA numbers, FDLE cannot process the request and DCF will not know where to send the results.

If an applicant is to be Live Scanned for multiple items, a separate form is required for each item, Live Scan transactions are not transferable or reusable. Every applicant must be in possession of a valid form of photo ID to be fingerprinted.

No, Concealed weapon licenses and expungements MUST be processed by a law enforcement agency.

A live scan will reveal all your criminal history. Live scan fingerprinting can even include your federal record.

If I have had a live scan before do I need to do it again? Yes, your prints only go to one agency or employer at a time so you can't use one set of prints for two different live scans. Agencies or employers are not allowed to share a person's background check information with one another.
