Fingerprint Procedures
Students in their final semester must complete the finger print procedures.
Effective Jan. 1, 2020, the $53.94 fee for certification and employment background checks will increase to $57.25. Please continue to make checks payable to Idemia.
All applicants must now pre-register on the IdentoGO website prior to being printed, whether printing is done at a satellite site or the Oklahoma State Department of Education (OSDE).
Applicants cannot be fingerprinted without a registration ID number that the website will provide after registration is complete. Also, when registering, one of the following service codes must be entered on the “Service Code Entry” screen. Please instruct your applicants to use the relevant code.
- “School District Employment” service code: 2B7KRR
- “Teacher Certification” service code: 2B7KS5
- “Dual Processing” (only available at OSDE) service code: 2B7KTN
Idemia will now offer out-of-state digital fingerprinting services (if available in your area). You may register online at the IdentoGO website.
Furthermore, OSDE will no longer process physical fingerprint cards for the $57.25 payment option at our site for any purposes. All cards completed with the $57.25 payment option should be sent directly to IdentoGO by the applicant. Instructions on how and where to send the cards are provided on the IdentoGO website. Please note: OSDE will continue to offer the $45 OSBI employment background check option. Please continue to send those to the OSDE.
If you have any questions, contact (405) 521-3337 and ask to be transferred to the fingerprinting office or visit their website at https://sde.ok.gov/bg-check.
