§416.15(b)(11)(ii)(c): Fingerprints for the criminal history review
Among the background check paperwork a program must keep on file are the fingerprint images the state needs for a criminal history review. The citation concerns that paperwork. It does not say what any review found.

The state's wording
fingerprint images necessary for the Office to conduct a criminal history review,
This is the text the state (OCFS) attaches to the citation. It is a template, so it can sound harsher or vaguer than the finding behind it.
Worth asking the provider
Have all the required people been fingerprinted?
Reading it on a record
Look at whether the citation is marked open or corrected, how long ago it was cited, and whether the same section shows up on several inspections. One corrected citation is common. The same one on visit after visit is worth a direct question. Our guide to checking a daycare and methodology explain the rest.
