discussed below.
1. You must be notified by the Nevada Real Estate Division (name of requesting agency)
that your fingerprints will be used to check the criminal history records of the FBI and the
State of Nevada.
2. If you have a criminal history record, the officials making a determination of your suitability
for the job, license or other benefit for which you are applying must provide you the
opportunity to complete or challenge the accuracy of the information in the record. You may
review and challenge the accuracy of any and all criminal history records which are returned
to the submitting agency. The proper forms and procedures will be furnished to you by the
Nevada Department of Public Safety, Records Bureau upon request. If you decide to challenge
the accuracy or completeness of you FBI criminal history record, Title 28 of the Code of
Federal Regulations Section 16.34 provides for the proper procedure to do so:
16.34 - Procedure to obtain change, correction or updating of identification
records. If, after reviewing his/her identification record, the subject thereof
believes that it is incorrect or incomplete in any respect and wishes changes,
corrections or updating of the alleged deficiency, he/she should make application
directly to the agency which contributed the questioned information. The subject of
a record may also direct his/her challenge as to the accuracy or completeness of any
entry on his/her record to the FBI, Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS)
Division ATTN: SCU, Mod. D-2, 1000 Custer Hollow Road, Clarksburg, WV 26306.
The FBI will then forward the challenge to the agency which submitted the data
requesting that agency to verify or correct the challenged entry. Upon the receipt of
an official communication directly from the agency which contributed the original
information, the FBI CJIS Division will make any changes necessary in accordance
with the information supplied by that agency.
3. Based on 28 CFR § 50.12 (b), officials making such determinations should not deny the
license or employment based on information in the record until the applicant has been
afforded a reasonable time to correct or complete the record or has declined to do so.
4. You have the right to expect that officials receiving the results of the fingerprint-based
criminal history record check will use it only for authorized purposes and will not retain or
disseminate it in violation of federal or state statute, regulation or executive order, or rule,
procedure or standard established by the National Crime Prevention and Privacy Compact
Council.
