If Your Fingerprints Are Rejected

Rejections happen — here's what to know

FDLE occasionally rejects prints due to poor ridge quality, worn skin, or dry fingertips — not because of anything on your record. Rejection is uncommon with digital Live Scan equipment, but it does happen.

  • If FDLE rejects your prints, you will receive a re-print notice.
  • Sky Bright LiveScan re-prints at no additional charge.
  • We will schedule a new appointment quickly — same-day is often available.
  • Moisturizing your fingertips for a few days before your appointment reduces rejection risk.

Common DBPR Fingerprinting Mistakes to Avoid

Using an outdated ORI number — DBPR ORI codes are tied to specific license types and are periodically updated. Always use the ORI listed on your current DBPR application letter, not one from a previous filing or an unofficial list.

Not knowing your exact license category before arriving — DBPR covers dozens of professions. The ORI for a real estate sales associate (FL920010Z) differs from an appraiser (FL922050Z) or construction licensing (FL923400Z). Confirm your license type with DBPR first.

Submitting fingerprints too late in the application process — DBPR license applications cannot be fully processed until your background check clears. Getting fingerprinted early in the process avoids holding up your license issuance.
