Five Steps to Your Florida Background Check

• 1

  Get Your ORI Number

  Before you register, you’ll need an ORI Number (Originating Agency Identifier) from the employer or licensing agency requesting your background check.

  Your ORI number tells us:

  • Which agency or employer ordered the screening
  • The purpose of the background check
  • Where your results need to be sent

  Your employer or requesting agency will provide this number. If you don’t have your ORI, reach out to them before scheduling.

  Register Online

  Create your secure DTIS account and complete the online application in minutes. You’ll provide basic identification information and submit payment during registration. DTIS accepts Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express.

  Have an access code? Payment may not be required at checkout. Create your account.
