Q: When will my credentials be available to me (Virginia Resident)?

A: Depending on the class that you have taken. If you have taken an entry-level class, (01E for example) and have never been in the system, it may take a bit for DCJS to get your credentials out to you. As long as you have taken the class before your 90 days are up, been fingerprinted per DCJS regulations prior to class, you can still work. DCJS will (once approved) send you a PDF temporary letterhead to your email on your DCJS profile so you can print and carry it on your person in the performance of your duties (this is required). Once you have received your hard card in the mail, you can disregard the letterhead that you printed off.

A: When you register with DCJS and you're an out-of-state resident, the letterhead that you receive from DCJS in your email will be your identification per DCJS regulations. Now you may go down to the local DMV and have your picture taken for a DCJS hard card. This is up to the individual. The letterhead will be your DCJS ID -Non-Resident ONLY -
