Submitting your Application

Before starting the background check from Step 3 of the Safe Play process, please make sure you have your Pennsylvania Clearances ready. The system will not let you submit your application without uploading these documents.

 

When you are directed to NCSI’s secure platform, there will be a reminder at the top of the page as shown below. You will then fill out the application with your information.
