For a civil servant, it's the agency that has told you you must undergo a fingerprint based background check. The code is assigned by the FBI or state's main law enforcement agency based on state or federal legislation that allows applicant's for that agency conductng the background check where to send the results to. No agency conducting fingerprint operations may share the results of the background check with any other person or entity.  An ORI wll generally be a 9-digit alpha-numeric code consisting of 2-digits identifying the state and a 6-7 numeral perhaps ending in a letter. Note: Armored Car Carriers, Document Destruction Contractor, Security or Fire Alarm Installer, Bail Enforcement Agent and Coin Processor: Fingerprinting receipts are valid only for five month's from date of fingerprinting. Please submit your original application within five months. Failure to submit your application within this time period will require you to complete the process again.  

Westchester and Connecticut JudiciaryServices, Ltd., provides Mobile Fingerprint Services in Westchester, NY & Connecticut for both Ink-Rolled Fingerprint Cards and Live-Scan Fingerprinting. The Ink Rolled Fingerprinting method has traditionally been the most common type of fingerprinting.  This is all ten fingers. The making of a 10-print fingerprint card is the standard for most fingerprinting situations. This traditional type of fingerprinting is used for many of our customers including FINRA brokerage firms, Security Firms, Government Employees, and in numerous other fields.  We provide our service to both individuals and businesses. Fingerprint cards are typically used when an applicant is applying for employment, license, background checks, or a permit of some kind.  Fingerprint cards are used for Federal background checks or in certain instances when a Life Scan fingerprint will not go through.  In this case a fingerprint card will be used instead. Fingerprint cards results generally process much faster than Live Scan.  Live Scan is State-of-the-Art fingerprinting.  It is the most advanced F.B.I. approved, fingerprinting technology. Live Scan is often used in the fields of: banking, insurance, mortgage, pharmaceutical, throughout the medical field, Board of Education, Gaming License applications, Public Transportation and most Brokerage Firms, among others. (FINRA, SEC, NFA, ABA, etc.)  Live Scan may be electronically delivered, whereas ink rolled cards cannot.
