The NYC Department of Investigation houses the Fingerprint Unit, responsible for conducting background checks on individuals working at child care, home care, and family care facilities in compliance with city regulations. These screenings involve cross-referencing fingerprints with state and federal criminal records to ensure the safety of vulnerable populations.

As of June 1, 2020, fingerprinting for child care program applicants is outsourced to IdentoGO centers, streamlining the process and making it more accessible across the five boroughs. Applicants are required to schedule appointments for fingerprinting and must present the necessary identification as well as pay the processing fee.

The department emphasizes the importance of following instructions carefully throughout the registration and fingerprinting process. After completion, applicants are to submit the processing receipt to the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene along with their application materials for further review and processing.
