 Background Check
 
Ohio Revised Code requires all resident applicants to pass a criminal background check conducted by the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation and Identification (“BCI”). The use of other background investigations services is not permitted.

To complete a background check applicants must use WebCheck, a web-based fingerprinting technology that processes background checks within two business days. The results of the background check must be directly submitted to the Ohio Department of Insurance (“ODI”) or from one of the ODI’s authorized WebCheck locations listed below. Results received directly by any other WebCheck location or company/individual not listed below will be returned.

ODI will only accept background check results after an exam has been passed. Results received prior to the passage of an exam may be returned. WebCheck is available at the following authorized locations:

Pearson VUE
WebCheck is offered, as a convenience, at all Ohio Pearson VUE test centers. Pearson VUE’s WebCheck is only available immediately after the successful completion of an exam. Applicants may not return to a test center at a later time for WebCheck processing.
