N.J. Stat. § 53:1-20.9b

8. a. The Commissioner of Children and Families is authorized to exchange fingerprint data with, and to receive information from, the Division of State Police in the Department of Law and Public Safety and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Upon receipt of the criminal history record information for an applicant or staff member of a child care center from the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Division of State Police, the Department of Children and Families shall notify the applicant or staff member, as applicable, and the child care center, in writing, of the applicant's or staff member's qualification or disqualification for employment or service under P.L.2000, c.77 (C.30:5B-6.10 et al.). If the applicant or staff member is disqualified, the convictions that constitute the basis for the disqualification shall be identified in the written notice to the applicant or staff member. The applicant or staff member shall have 14 days from the date of the written notice of disqualification to challenge the accuracy of the criminal history record information. If no challenge is filed or if the determination of the accuracy of the criminal history record information upholds the disqualification, the Department of Children and Families shall notify the center that the applicant or staff member has been disqualified from employment. b. The Division of State Police shall promptly notify the Department of Children and Families in the event an applicant or staff member who was the subject of a criminal history record background check conducted pursuant to subsection a. of this section, is convicted of a crime or offense in this State after the date the background check was performed. Upon receipt of such notification, the Department of Children and Families shall make a determination regarding the employment of the applicant or staff member.
