How can I obtain a background check for employment purposes?

You can come to the Riley County Police Department located at 1001 South Seth Child Road during normal business hours. If a background check request is emailed or faxed to our department, it will be completed in 3 to 5 business days.

Background checks completed by the Riley County Police Department only cover Riley County. If someone has lived in other places in the state of Kansas, you may instead want to complete a state-wide check with the Kansas Bureau of Investigation to save time and money. Find more information on the Kansas Bureau of Investigation's Website

The cost for an application and background check in Riley County is $10. We accept most forms of payment including cash, check, money order, and credit/debit cards.
