What is the process to have fingerprints taken?
The DDSO, voluntary agency or registered provider can schedule an appointment to have fingerprints taken at the OMRDD DDSO that is most convenient for them. A number of voluntary agencies are also available for LIVESCAN fingerprinting. The list of sites and contacts can be obtained by contacting the CBC unit or visiting the OMRDD website (www.omr.state.ny.us) in the Information for Providers section under Criminal history record checks. The applicant must bring a copy of the Request for Criminal History Record Check Form (OMR 106 or 106A), the Information for Fingerprint Submission Form (OMR 107) and necessary identification (picture ID) to the DDSO in order to be fingerprinted. Alternatively, the DDSO, voluntary agency or registered provider may ink and roll applicants themselves or obtain an ink and roll set of fingerprints and mail the fingerprints with the aforementioned forms to the CBC unit or bring them to the DDSO. Fingerprint cards can be obtained from the CBC unit.
