Get Fingerprints Taken

Follow the steps below and click Next at the bottom of the page
Before the court will hear your guardian advocate petition, you must have your fingerprints submitted for a state and national criminal history records check.

Get your fingerprints taken at the Volusia Sheriff's Office Operations Center at 1330 Indian Lake Road, Daytona Beach, FL 32124.

Additional fingerprinting agencies can be found for your county by contacting LiveScan.   Please call (850) 410-8161 or check the online list here.  If you are searching for agencies using the online list, please search for ones that are in the same area code as your phone number.
A few important notes about the fingerprinting process:
  • You must bring a picture ID - a Florida Driver's License is preferred.
  • Very important - An Originating Agency Identification (ORI) Number for your county's clerk of court will need to be provided to the agency at the time of fingerprinting.  This will insure that the FDLE returns the report to the clerk for use in your guardian advocate case.  You can contact your county's clerk of court from their resources page to obtain their ORI Number.  ​​
  • See Volusia County Resources for the fees and acceptable payment types.
  • A Transaction Control Number (TCN) will be issued upon getting your fingerprints taken.  Keep this number for your records.
  • The results will be sent directly to Volusia County Clerk of Court.
​Why do I have to get fingerprints taken?
The court needs to verify the background of anyone petitioning to be a guardian advocate.  This is for the protection of the adult with delayed learning and prevents ineligible individuals from being appointed as a guardian advocate.

​
How long until the county receives the results of the criminal history records check?
About two weeks after your fingerprints are taken.
