Your First Livescan Visit
The operator begins by verifying your photo ID and entering your details, including the checks you need and where results should go. Your fingers are then placed one at a time on a glass scanner, followed by flat impressions of several fingers together.
The system checks image quality as it goes, so the operator may retake a finger. The whole process often takes just a few minutes once paperwork is complete. You will usually receive a receipt with a reference number. Keep it until your employer or agency confirms that results have arrived.
What to Bring to Your Appointment
- A valid, unexpired government photo ID such as a driver license, state ID or passport
- The reason code or Ohio Revised Code section from the employer or licensing board requesting your check
- The mailing address or email where results should be sent
- Any FD-258 cards supplied by an out of state agency, left unsigned until you are with the technician
- Payment in a form the provider accepts
Which Check Do You Need?
BCI only searches Ohio records and is common for many state licenses and volunteer roles. FBI only searches national records. BCI and FBI is required for many teaching, health care, child care and professional licenses, especially if you have lived outside Ohio in the past five years. If you are unsure, ask the agency requesting your prints before booking.
How Long Results Take
Most WebCheck results reach the employer or applicant within one to four weeks. Poor print quality or a common name can add time. For delays, contact the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation at (877) 224-0043.
