FAQ

A-1 Fingerprinting and Drug Screening performs both Live Scan and hard card fingerprinting. Here are some of your most commonly asked questions and answers for you.

  • Q: What is an ORI number?

    A: This number is provided by FDLE. It identifies the agency requesting the criminal history check and for what purpose.

  • Q: What is an OCA number?

    A: The OCA (Controlling Agency Identifier) is a number provided by DCF. It identifies the provider requesting the background check.


    The OCA number is a nine-character number beginning with your two-digit Circuit Number, followed by your OCA, and ending with the letter “z”.

  • Q: What is Live Scan Fingerprinting?

    A: Live Scan is unlike traditional fingerprinting, where ink is applied to each of your fingers then “rolled” across a fingerprint card to obtain your prints. With Live Scan electronic fingerprinting, there is no ink or card. Your fingerprints are “rolled” across a glass plate and scanned. This method is faster and cleaner than the traditional ink method. Electronic fingerprinting reduces the likelihood of illegible fingerprints and reduces the overall application processing time.

  • Q: How long does a fingerprint scan take?

    A: The typical time to have your fingerprints scanned is 5-10 minutes.

  • Q: May I use my recent fingerprinting results to apply for a different professional license?

    A: Per FBI regulation, your prints cannot be shared between agencies. You are required to have separate prints taken for each license for which you apply, using the correct ORI.

  • Q: Do I get to see the results?

    A: Unfortunately, no. Only the requesting agency has access to your results.
