Hungarian Village clients come in with their request details, and we handle the electronic BCI and FBI WebCheck capture and submission in a single appointment.

The Board may grant licenses with prior offenses on a case-by-case basis, but drug diversion is treated very seriously given the nature of pharmacy work.

How Pharmacist & Pharmacy Tech Fingerprinting Works in Hungarian Village
Three simple steps — most visits are finished in 15 to 20 minutes.
Come In Prepared
Bring a valid government-issued photo ID. If your employer, board, or agency gave you an ORI number or an instruction sheet, bring those too. No appointment is required; just walk into our Hungarian Village-area office any day we are open. If you are unsure what your check needs, call first and we will sort it out in a couple of minutes.
We Capture Your Prints
We capture all ten fingers on a certified Live Scan scanner for the Ohio BCI portion. When your agency also requires the FBI check, we submit that electronically during the same visit. The scanner scores each impression as it is taken, so a weak scan is caught and redone right away rather than weeks later by mail.
Results Are Delivered
Your submission travels electronically to Ohio BCI, and to the FBI when your check requires it, under the ORI we have on file. Results go directly to the agency that requested them, usually within a few business days for BCI and one to three weeks for the FBI portion. Nothing needs to be picked up or mailed on your end.
Accepted Forms of ID
Ohio BCI and the FBI require at least one current, unexpired, government-issued photo ID that shows your name, date of birth, and a clear photograph. The name on your ID must match the name on your application exactly. Expired IDs, photocopies, and digital photos of an ID are not accepted. If your legal name has changed, bring documentation (marriage certificate or court order) connecting the two names.
Primary Photo ID (bring one)
- ✓Valid U.S. state driver's license or state ID card
- ✓U.S. or foreign passport (or passport card)
- ✓U.S. Permanent Resident Card (green card)
- ✓U.S. military ID (CAC) or dependent ID
- ✓Employment Authorization Document (EAD, Form I-766)
Secondary Documents (if asked)
- ✓Social Security card
- ✓Certified birth certificate
- ✓Voter registration card
- ✓U.S. visa or I-94 arrival record
- ✓School or employer photo ID
Why Fingerprints Get Rejected — and How We Prevent It
Electronic Live Scan grades each finger for quality the moment it is captured, so a weak print is caught and redone during your visit rather than weeks later by mail. In the rare case Ohio BCI or the FBI sends a submission back, we re-capture your prints at no additional service charge. We also condition dry or worn fingertips beforehand to give you the best chance of an accepted scan the first time.
Most common rejection causes
- •Worn, dry, or faint ridge detail, which is common with manual labor, age, or certain medications
- •Too much finger pressure or movement during the scan, something our real-time quality check flags on the spot
- •An incorrect or mistyped ORI that routes results to the wrong agency
- •A name or date of birth that does not match the application
- •Cuts, bandages, or temporary skin conditions on the fingertips
Frequently Asked Questions
I was convicted of a DUI 4 years ago. Will I be denied a pharmacy license?
A DUI is evaluated by the Board on a case-by-case basis. It is not an automatic disqualifier. The Board considers the offense type, how long ago it occurred, evidence of rehabilitation, and whether it involved controlled substances. Consult with a pharmacy licensing attorney if you have concerns.
How far is your office from Hungarian Village?
Our office at 3185 Morse Rd, Columbus is approximately 8 miles from Hungarian Village — typically a 16-minute drive depending on traffic. Most Columbus Metro clients combine the trip with errands in Columbus. Walk in Monday through Saturday 10am to 6pm, or Sunday 10am to 4pm.
Can Hungarian Village residents walk in without an appointment?
Yes. We accept walk-ins every day: Monday through Saturday 10am to 6pm, and Sunday 10am to 4pm. Hungarian Village clients regularly drop in on lunch breaks, after work, or on weekends. The fingerprinting itself takes 15–20 minutes.
What is the difference between an Ohio BCI check and an FBI check?
An Ohio BCI (Bureau of Criminal Investigation) check searches Ohio criminal records only. An FBI check searches the national database, which covers all 50 states and federal records. Many Ohio employers and licensing boards ask for both, the combined "BCI and FBI" check, to get complete coverage. We can submit one or both in a single visit, depending on what your ORI and agency require.
How much does fingerprinting cost, and is the state check priced separately from the federal check?
Our pricing is flat and easy to follow. A BCI-only Live Scan WebCheck is $40, an FBI-only check is $40, and a combined BCI and FBI submission is $80. We tell you the exact total before we capture your prints, with no hidden charges and no surcharge for paying by card.
Do I need an appointment, or can I just walk in?
You are welcome to walk in. Stop by our Hungarian Village-area office at 3185 Morse Rd, Suite 15, Columbus any day we are open: Monday through Saturday 10am to 6pm, and Sunday 10am to 4pm. Most visits wrap up in 15 to 20 minutes. If you are bringing a group of employees, a quick call ahead lets us keep your wait short.
Can my results be sent to more than one employer or agency?
Each submission is tied to a single ORI (Originating Agency Identifier), and that ORI routes the results to one agency. When two employers or boards each need their own copy, we run a separate submission for each ORI. Both can be done in the same visit, so you only have to come in once.
Can I get a copy of my own fingerprints or background-check results?
Fingerprint-based results go to the requesting agency rather than to you, unless your check used a "personal review" or self-request ORI. If you need your own copy of your FBI record for personal or international use, that is an FBI Identity History Summary. Let us know, and we will capture and submit your prints electronically and explain how to request the summary directly from the FBI.
What if my fingerprints get rejected?
Electronic Live Scan flags a low-quality print in real time, so we re-capture it during your visit. In the rare case Ohio BCI or the FBI still returns a submission, we re-capture your prints again at no additional service charge.
How long are my results valid?
That depends on the requirement. Many Ohio licensing boards and employers treat a background check as valid for a set window, often one year and sometimes longer, and ask for a fresh check after that or when you change employers. Your board or HR department sets the validity period. The fingerprints themselves do not expire, but the check tied to them does.
