Record Check Authorization

The provision of a record check authorization document can be:

      Paper signed document

      Entered through the External Portal by a provider (if not an initial authorization)

      Regardless of the method of submission, the licensing or subsidy worker will need to search the Bright Futures database to find, or create the appropriate person to whom this Authorization should be linked. Over time, multiple authorizations can be linked to the same person. If the authorization is being requested because the person is a child care provider, provider Associated Party person, or a provider household member, the Record Check Authorization must also be linked to the appropriate provider.

      Record Checks are required for the following people:

      Licensed Program - Applicant, Individual Owner and Associated Party Members

      Registered Homes - Applicant, Associated Parties and Household Members, age 16 or older

      LECC Providers - Applicant and Household Members age, 16 or older, if care is rendered in the LECC's Home

      Informal Transportation Providers

      For Licensed Program Associated Party, a Record Check Authorization is good until an Associated Party member moves to a new program; if the Associated Party moves to a new program, then a new authorization is required.

      In the case of the Record Check requirements for an Applicant, the Record Check Authorization details are captured during the application process.
