To obtain your criminal record in Kansas, you’ll need to request it through the Kansas Bureau of Investigation (KBI) or the Kansas Department of Corrections (KDOC) depending on the type of record you’re seeking.
Here’s how you can request your criminal record in Kansas…
1. Kansas Bureau of Investigation (KBI)
The KBI provides criminal history record checks for non-criminal justice purposes, such as personal review, employment, and licensing. You can request your criminal record from the KBI by following these steps…
– Visit the Kansas Bureau of Investigation website.
– Navigate to the Criminal History Records section.
– Download and complete the Criminal History Record Request Form.
– Submit the completed form along with the required fee (check the current fee schedule on the KBI website) to the address provided on the form.
– Allow processing time for your request to be completed. The KBI will mail your criminal history record to you.
2. Kansas Department of Corrections (KDOC)
If you’re specifically looking for information related to your incarceration or involvement with the Kansas Department of Corrections, you may need to contact the KDOC directly. This could include records of any time spent in Kansas correctional facilities or involvement in the parole or probation system.
– Visit the Kansas Department of Corrections website.
– Look for sections related to records requests or inmate information.
– Follow the instructions provided for requesting your records. This may involve submitting a written request, completing a form, or contacting a specific department within the KDOC.
– Be prepared to provide identifying information such as your full name, date of birth, and any other details that can help locate your records.
Note that there may be fees associated with obtaining your criminal record, and processing times can vary. Certain restrictions or limitations may apply to who can access your criminal record and for what purposes, so be sure to review any guidelines or requirements provided by the relevant agency.
