Instructions for how to register with FCSR
For Employers & Families:
Identify if a person is an FCSR registrant. To see if a current or prospective employee is registered, enter their social security number (without dashes or spaces) in the form submission box.
Request an FCSR Employee Background Screening Report
After checking to see that an employee is registered with the FCSR, you may request an FCSR Employee Background Screening Report by:
- calling 573/526-1974 or toll-free 1-866/422-6872, or
- using an Employer Background Screening Request Form to submit a request.
The FCSR asks that if requests are made for more than three employees, providers should use the request form and submit the information by mail, fax or electronically. If an employee is registered, it takes about two days to process a background screening request.
