Hi. I was wondering what type of background checks the BON does on new applicants. Is it a state or federal background check?

Thank you,

Hopefully both.

Im not really sure but for what its worth they only request one set of prints so they are running just one. When I applied to New Mexico a few years ago they requested two sets as one set was used for the states check and the other for the FBI's.

Hello,

As a new grad, I applied in May 2005 in Florida. There was no fingerprints required but the app states they perform both a state and federal check.
