The OSPRA 104 Form is to be filed by individuals who have been previously fingerprinted (after July 1, 1990) for a license and/or employment by the New York City Public Schools (NYC Public Schools) and are authorizing the NYC Public Schools to forward their criminal history to the New York State Education Department for certification application and/or employment purposes. The OSPRA104 is submitted through the HR Connect Portal
On a daily basis the HR Connect Service Center works on the OSPRA104 queue. We review fingerprints in NYCAPS , Applicant Gateway and State Teach system to determine the transfer of fingerprints from the NYCPS to their State Teach account.
