VECHS — Volunteer & Employee Criminal History System
Level 2 fingerprinting for volunteers and employees in schools, daycares, and community organizations throughout Florida.
VECHS applicants in Florida need a Level 2 Live Scan — a fingerprint-based FDLE (state) and FBI (national) background check submitted under ORI FL922020Z. Provn captures your prints in about 15 minutes and transmits them to FDLE within 24 hours, with an instant TCN for tracking.
Who needs VECHS fingerprinting
Child-care, foster-care, and adoption staff; substance-abuse and mental-health providers; and employees or volunteers of DCF, APD, DJJ, and Elder Affairs care-provider programs across Florida.
About this check
These care-provider roles are Level 2 screenings that run through the AHCA Care Provider Background Screening Clearinghouse, so one result can be shared across participating agencies. A photo is captured with your prints to tie the screening to your identity in the shared system.
What this ORI needs
- The care-provider ORI for your program
- A photo is taken with your fingerprints (Clearinghouse requirement)
- Confirm whether an existing Clearinghouse result can be shared before re-screening
Always confirm the ORI with your requesting agency — some programs use a position-specific code.
What you need
- A valid, unexpired government-issued photo ID
- This ORI:
FL922020Z - About 15 minutes of your time — Walk-ins welcome

Good to know
Is this screened through the Clearinghouse?
Yes. DCF, APD, DJJ, and Elder Affairs care-provider roles are Level 2 screenings that run through the AHCA Care Provider Background Screening Clearinghouse, so a single result can be shared across participating agencies.
A photo is required — why?
Clearinghouse submissions capture a photo with your fingerprints to tie the screening to your identity in the shared system. We take it during your visit.
I was screened for another care job — do I have to redo it?
Sometimes an existing Clearinghouse result can be shared with a new employer rather than re-screened. Confirm your eligibility status with the hiring agency; if a fresh submission is needed, we can print you same-day.
