Before clicking “Continue” at the bottom of this page, you must agree to the following terms:

• Individuals must complete their own background check application. You may not apply for someone else. You may assist them, but the applicant must be present at all times and review all information entered. The applicant is responsible for everything entered, even if it is incorrect.
• Individuals accessing this site must have an individual NCID (not a business, school, or government NCID). Provider users can access the Provider Portal via this specific link and not through this website.
• Provider Codes are determined by the type of background check requested. To work in NC use Appinitapp or the code provided by your facility, and to work in another state use OutStateapp.
• If you are seeking a background check for purposes other than working in a licensed child care facility or family child care home, please consult DSS.
• If you are logging in to do a CONNECTING APPLICATION, make sure to use the code provided by your facility.
• Do not contact the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation for any reason. Contact the DCDEE CBC Unit with any questions related to your fingerprints or background check results.
• Login to ABCMS is controlled by NCID; if you need assistance with logging in or password assistance, please contact myncid.nc.gov or 919.754.6000

If you have any questions or concerns about these terms, STOP before proceeding and contact the CBC Unit at 919.814.6401 or by email at DHHS.CBC.Unit@dhhs.nc.gov.
