LIVE SCAN FINGERPRINTING

Level 1 and Level 2 Criminal History Record Checks:

Level 1 and Level 2 Criminal History Record Checks are terms used in Florida Statutes to convey the method of the criminal history record check and the extent of the data searched; however, the terms may also refer to certain disqualifying offenses if certain statutes are used as reference. Level 1 and Level 2 are terms that pertain only to Florida and are not used by the FBI or other states. They are defined in Chapter 435, F.S., but are used elsewhere in the statute without definition and appear not to be associated with all of the provisions in Chapter 435.

  1. Level 1: a state-only name-based check.

  2. Level 2: a state and national fingerprint-based check and consideration of disqualifying offenses and applies to those employees designated by law as holding positions of responsibility or trust. Section 435.04, mandates that Level 2 background security investigations be conducted on employees, defined as individuals required by law to be fingerprinted according to Chapter 435.
