Who is required to have a level one fingerprint clearance card?
On July 1, 2009, the department began issuing two types of fingerprint clearance cards. This change was mandated by a change in state law. The cards are called the Level One card and the Regular card. Section 411758.07 was enacted which placed a higher eligibility standard to receive a Level One card than what is needed for a Regular card. Both cards are valid for six years and fees have not changed.
