General Information:

Fee Information

The fee applies to the search and not to the result . You will be charged a search fee even if the response is "no record found."

CIB Record Check Fees

CIB is required under Wisconsin law to charge a fee for criminal history searches. Statute 165.82 says that the search cost is determined as follows:

Internet Requests:
  • Non-profit organization $ 7
  • Governmental agency $ 7
  • Any other requester $ 13

Mail or Fax Requests:

  • Non-profit organization $ 12
  • Governmental agency $ 12
  • Any other requester $ 18

For each search that you request, a fee will be imposed. For account customers, your transactions will appear on an itemized monthly statement. Fees for account customers are determined at the time the account is established based on requestor type. If you pay for your requests as they are sent in, proof of organization type other than public ($18.00) must be included with the request. For non-profit organizations, this proof must be in the form of a 501{c}{3} determination by the Internal Revenue Service

A Federal Employer Identification Number does not indicate non-profit status. Tax-exempt status does not indicate non-profit status.

Department of Health Services Fee

For "general" type requests, only the CIB fees listed above apply. For "caregiver" and "daycare" type requests, the Wisconsin Department of Health Services, effective April 1, 2008, charges an additional $ 3.00 per search to cover their processing costs. The DHFS fee is in addition to the CIB search fee.
