I currently live outside Oregon and paid for a fingerprint background check the last time I certified. Why do I need to submit another fingerprint card?
Background checks are being conducted on all recertifying First Responders. DHS-EMS utilizes the Law Enforcement Data System (LEDS) for Oregon records. If you have been out of the state for 60 or more consecutive days since you last certified, recertified, or you currently reside outside Oregon, DHS-EMS needs your fingerprints to conduct background checks/criminal history from other states. The following is an example of people who DO NOT need to submit to a fingerprint background check: 1) If you submitted fingerprints to DHS-EMS previously and have not been out of the state for 60 or more consecutive days since that time, do not submit another fingerprint card. 2) If work or attend school outside Oregon and return home each night to Oregon, this is considered a reasonable commute and you do not need to submit to a fingerprint card.
