NCIC Validation Schedule
The March NCIC Validation listing, first available to everyone on March 12, 2026, will be archived from CJIS Validations on Thursday, April 30, 2026.  Un-validated records will no longer be available on CJIS Validations after that date.  The only option after that date is to manually validate records individually by using the appropriate "modify" Message Key and including information in the VLN field.  The VLD field will automatically be added when the modification transaction is sent.  Any un-validated records will be purged by NCIC during the early morning hours of Sunday, May 3, 2026.

NCIC Locate Procedure
If a hit on a wanted person record is confirmed and the locating agency is within the extradition limitations as indicated in the record, the record must be located. When the record entering agency indicates the individual will be extradited or picked up intrastate, "EXTR" is placed in the Extradition Field. In addition, if the locating agency intends to hold the wanted person on local charges, the locate 
transaction should indicate detention by placing "DETN" in the Extradition Field. However, when the agency that entered the record advises that the apprehended person will not be extradited or picked up, then "NOEX" must be entered in the Extradition Field of the locate message indicating that the subject will not be returned to the wanting agency.

Nebraska Apportioned Vehicle Registration Inquiry
Omnixx users now have the capability to also run a Nebraska apportioned vehicle registration (power unit or trailer) by VIN.

On the Omnixx RQ screen, indicate "NB" as the destination state, insert the apportioned vehicle's VIN in the VIN field, and select the checkbox titled "Apportioned Vehicle (APV)" before transmitting the inquiry.  The VYR and VMA fields are not required.  Checking the APV box will allow for the user to receive the apportioned vehicle's full registration when using the VIN - which was not available prior to this enhancement.

RQs on Nebraska apportioned vehicles made with license plate information are made with LIC/LIY/LIT (AT or AP) as before.  The APV check box is not to be checked prior to sending the inquiry.

NCIC Certification Prerequisites
In order to be considered to attend NCIC training, the following four prerequisites exist.  The potential student must:

1. Be included on the NLETC NCIC course "wait list."
2. Have a current CLEIN teletype terminal account.
3. Have an operational need to receive NCIC training.
4. Have verifiable "hands on" time and exposure to the NCIC terminal

Multi-state RQ inquiries.
The RQ form on Omnixx allows a user to query a license plate for vehicle registration information to more than one state.  Operators need to keep in mind that the automatic QV spawn to NCIC will only be constructed and sent on the state code indicated in the blue "Nlets Destination Code" and not any other states listed. This could create a false sense of security in thinking that separate QV inquiries are created and sent to NCIC for each state listed, in addition to what is listed in the blue field.  Separate QV inquiries must be sent if the RQ form contains more than one state.

Regardless of when you last took the training in the CJIS Online application,  ALL Omnixx users with the exception of new hires will show this training in nexTEST as a prerequisite to your recertification test.

Fatality Messages
Section 2 of the CLEIN Manual provides information on structuring fatality Administrative Messages sent QQQ on the network.  Recently, we have noticed agencies including whether alcohol or other substance was or wasn't a factor in the fatality accident.  Do not include this information within the text of your fatality message.
