Please note: Partners in a nonprofit and preforms fingerprinting as a community service so that Routt County residents to not have to travel for this essential service. Our staff has limited capacity, please be mindful of this when booking your appointment. Thank you!
Background Information:
Colorado has joined other states in using third-party vendors to offer fingerprinting services for residents in need of licensing for a variety of professions. The state launched this new vendor system – known as the Colorado Applicant Background Services (CABS) program – in September 2018, to increase the number of locations people can obtain civil fingerprints for background checks for Colorado’s 64 professions requiring licensing. Two companies have been approved as CABS vendors: Colorado Fingerprinting and Identogo.
Partners in Routt County has collaborated with Colorado Fingerprinting to serve as the civilian fingerprinting site for Steamboat Springs / Routt County, to help fill the need for a fingerprinting site in our community. Please note that the Partners staff has limited capacity for answering questions about the overall fingerprinting process; our role is simply to conduct the appointments to capture your fingerprints. Colorado Fingerprinting is responsible for managing the fingerprinting process and they are the ones in direct contact with Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
