Fingerprinting and Criminal Background Checks

Attention: Due to the passage of Senate Bill 74 in the 33rd Legislative Session, as of August 31, 2024, fingerprinting and criminal background checks are now a requirement for physical therapy and occupational therapy license applicants. This means that in addition to all previous licensure requirements and fees, applicants will also need to provide the $75 fingerprint processing fee and mail in a completed fingerprint card. You can find more information on the fingerprinting requirements here.

Limited Permit, Renewal, and Reinstatement applications are exempt from this requirement. (AS 08.84.034)
