TCFP Criminal History Disclaimer
The Texas Commission on Fire Protection's Rules and Regulations governs the criteria for state certification of a
firefighter. There are circumstances under which the Texas Commission on Fire Protection (TCFP) may
DENY
certification to an individual who has been convicted of criminal offenses. If you have been convicted of any felony
offense or any misdemeanor class "B" or above, it is your responsibility to determine whether or not the TCFP will
issue you a certification. The most effective way to do this is by submitting to TCFP an APPLICATION FOR EARLY
REVIEW OF CERTIFICATION, which is available at the following URL:
https://www.tcfp.texas.gov/Services/GetPdf?filename=%2FForms%2FTCFP-012.pdf
Applicants are not obligated by Kilgore College to obtain this early review, but it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED
that it be done if the applicant has any convictions above the level of class "C" misdemeanor.
I, (the Applicant) have read the above statement regarding the Texas Commission on Fire Protection Criminal History
Disclaimer and understand the information contained therein.
