So I have to bring my nephew to get fingerprinted so he can apply for a position with Americorps. Our local Sheriff's office no longer does it for free so they gave me numbers of two private companies to call. One place charges $54.00 and I don't no about the other. They wouldn't quote me a price until I told them what classification of fingerprints we needed?!
Anyway, anyone have any ideas?

(4,033 posts)their teachers have to be fingerprinted. They may know where to go and the costs associated with it.
I'll do that. Our town court said the state troopers would probably do it so I'm going to call some tomorrow and I will call the school district too. Thank you.

Our district does not require teachers to be fingerprinted, though.

(72,790 posts)I went to our local Police Department. I don't remember if there was a fee. If there was, it was a small fee, because I don't remember going "OMG, $50? WTF"
Good luck.
That's exactly what I said to the guy at the private business that quoted me the $54.00! I'm going to call some of the local PD's tomorrow as the Town Court Clerk said she thinks they will do it.
