RISK MANAGEMENT TROUBLESHOOTING:
Q- What if I do not get a page to enter my SS# and submit?
- Make sure you are using WVSA RM URL and not your clubs! http://wvsa-rm.affinitysoccer.com. You may need to totally log out of the one you are using and enter ours!
Q- How long will it take for my background check to come back?
- Normally, within 24 hours but can take several days. To speed up the process make sure you add your middle initial.
Q-What if I get my child or spouse’s name when I go to submit for my background check?
- See answer above or you are not logging in with your own Username and PW, everyone must have their own for submitting for their BGC
Q-What does it mean when this is in my Risk Status on my registration?
- See below APPROVED = Background check successfully run. No negative results, admin is approved EXPIRED = All admin with expired background checks (good for two years) REVIEW COMMITTEE = Background check successfully run, questionable results came back that need to be reviewed by the State Risk Management Director FAILED = Not able to coach/admin SENT = successfully sent to BGC company, results have not returned yet (allow at least 48 hours for your BGC to process) NONE = A background check has NOT been run, they have not completed the process (see instructions, link above)
