FBI Personal Record Requests Are Separate From Florida Level 2 Screening

An FBI Identity History Summary allows an individual to request access to their own federal criminal history record. This is different from a Florida agency or licensing submission that uses an ORI, OCA or Clearinghouse request to route results to a specific Florida agency.

If your employer, licensing board or Florida agency gave you an ORI or screening request, use the Florida agency appointment category instead of the FBI personal background check option.
