What Is a Florida Live Scan Submission?
A Florida Live Scan submission begins with digital fingerprint capture for a background check requested by a Florida agency. The ORI number identifies the requesting agency and helps determine how the fingerprints must be routed.
Requirements differ by profession and agency. Confirm the current ORI, purpose code, and submission instructions before your appointment. Final processing and acceptance decisions are made by the receiving agency.

Common Questions
Florida Live Scan Submission is the electronic process of capturing and transmitting fingerprints digitally to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) for a criminal background check. Instead of ink-on-card printing, a scanner captures high-resolution images of your fingerprints, which are then securely transmitted to FDLE and, when required, to the FBI.
A Florida Live Scan Submission is typically required for:
- State professional licensing (nursing, real estate, teaching, healthcare, and more)
- Employment background checks for Florida-based employers
- Childcare, elder care, and group home staff clearances
- Volunteer and contractor clearances for Florida agencies
- Concealed weapon permit applications
- Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF) screenings
Yes. Houston Fingerprint specializes in helping clients in Houston and across Texas complete Florida Live Scan Submissions without traveling to Florida. We capture your fingerprints electronically at our location and transmit them directly to the FDLE on your behalf, fully compliant with Florida state requirements.
An ORI (Originating Agency Identifier) number is a unique code that tells FDLE which agency, employer, or licensing board should receive your background check results. Yes, you need your ORI number before your Live Scan appointment.
The fingerprinting session itself typically takes 10–15 minutes. Once captured, fingerprints are transmitted electronically to FDLE, and results are usually returned to the receiving agency within 2–3 business days, though turnaround can vary depending on FDLE volume and whether an FBI check is also required.
Absolutely. All fingerprint data captured at Houston Fingerprint is transmitted via encrypted, FDLE-approved secure channels directly to the appropriate Florida agency. We do not retain or share your biometric data beyond the submission process. Your privacy is protected in full compliance with applicable state and federal laws.
