FAQ
What is the Florida Residents Directory?

How long does it take the Florida Residents Directory to process my opt-out request?
They usually remove your data within 48 hours after you send a request, but it might take a bit longer sometimes. If there’s a delay, it could be due to high request volumes or processing issues.

It takes about 5 to 10 minutes to complete the opt-out process. You’ll need to follow a few steps to ensure your information is removed correctly.
How can I remove multiple records from the Florida Residents Directory?
You’ll need to remove each record separately and wait 24 hours between each request. This can be a bit time-consuming if you have many entries to delete.
Where does the Florida Residents Directory get its data?

Can the Florida Residents Directory add my information again, even after they approve my opt-out request?
