Hi guys,

I'm filling the fingerprint form FD-258 (https://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/identity-history-summary-checks/fd-258-1) to ask for the police certificate and i'm following these guidelines https://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/fingerprints_biometrics/guidelines-for-preparation-of-fingerprint-cards-and-association-criminal-history-information
I'm not a US citizen and I don't live in the US, but I have previously lived there.

I'm a bit confused about the form:

- It says that Originating Agency Identifier (ORI) is required but I have no idea what I should fill in.
- I also have no idea what to fill in on the following blocks: Your number (OCA), FBI (FBI), Armed forces (MNU), Miscellaneous (MNU), "Employer and Address". But apparently I don't have to fill these, is that correct?
- The "Reason Fingerprinted" block, on the instruction card it says "civil fingerprint cards also require a reason fingerprinted and date fingerprinted" so I guess I have to fill this one? What do I enter here though?

Thanks!
