Livescan and Fingerprinting FAQs

1. I am a Rehire, do I need to livescan? Yes, once a break in service has occurred, you are required to resubmit to livescan for rehire.

2. Can I transfer my livescan from another Michigan School District into DPSCD? Yes, as long as you are still listed an active employee with the other Michigan school district. You can complete the Authorization to Release document and upload it to this link. It is important to know that districts have up to 30 days to respond to print share request. Therefore, DPSCD cannot control the timeframe for receiving sharing prints other districts and this may impact your start date.
