Bill > SB1921

This bill modifies provisions related to national criminal history record checks handled by the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI), which is the state agency responsible for maintaining criminal history records. It updates language to remove outdated references, clarifies the timeframe for completing national criminal history record checks to be done before individuals access sensitive information and allows them to be conducted up to 30 days before an entity is authorized to perform them. The bill also adjusts the fees charged for these record checks, increasing the cost for Oklahoma criminal history records and fingerprint analyses, and establishing new fees for national criminal history record checks submitted electronically or by mail. Additionally, it clarifies that a "national criminal history record check" involves fingerprinting and submission to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and allows the OSBI to participate in the FBI's Rap Back Program, which continuously monitors criminal history information. Finally, it updates penalties for submitting fraudulent criminal history records.
