and fingerprints or other identification documents pursuant to either
subdivision (a) or (e) of Section 1596.603, the department shall
enter into the trustline registry the provider's name, identification

application and fingerprints or identification documentation. This
provider shall be known as a "trustline applicant."
(2) A person shall not be entitled to apply to be a trustline
provider and shall have his or her application returned without the
right to appeal if the provider would not be eligible to obtain a
child care license pursuant to Section 1596.851.
(b) (1) Before approving the person's application, the department
shall check the individual criminal history pursuant to Section

summary criminal history information and the child abuse index, and,

not exist for denial pursuant to Section 1596.607 and the department
shall enter that finding in the provider's record in the trustline

granted to a registered trustline child care provider and hold the
registered trustline child care provider's criminal record clearance
in its active files pursuant to subdivision (h) of Section 1596.871.
