How long does the Criminal History Check process take?

Subject: 
Criminal History Check

Non-fingerprint-based Criminal History Checks are typically processed within 24 hours of the receipt of the authorization form. Fingerprint-based Criminal History Checks are usually processed within 24 hours - IF the applicant has digital prints taken on campus at the Department of Public Safety. If the applicant submits hard copy fingerprints (non-digital), it will generally take 14 days from when the prints are submitted to and received by the State of Oregon ID Bureau.  However, if the person being checked has a criminal history, it will take longer to analyze the results.
