Complete the fingerprint card at a local law enforcement agency as soon as possible after receiving it. Mail the completed fingerprint card to the Florida Office of Financial Regulation - 200 E.

We recommend you schedule your exam to take place 2-5 days after you complete our course. You can also contact Pearson VUE for exam scheduling after your application has been approved by calling 866-467-5554.
