The
Trumbull County Sheriff’s Department shall run a criminal background
check, using the WEBCHECK system, on all prospective adoptive parents
and on applicants for guardianships, estates or trusts as determined
by the Court.
Upon completion of the attached WEBCHECK form, the applicant shall
take it to The Trumbull County Sheriff's Department, located at 150
High Street, 330-675-2540. WEBCHECKS are conducted on Tuesday's
from 7:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. and from
1:00 p.m. to 2:30 p.m.
The
fee to conduct a WEBCHECK is $20.00 for BCI checks (the entire
state of Ohio). The fee shall be paid by the applicant to the
Sheriff's Department at the time of the check. The fee is payable in
Cash or Money Order only. If the applicant has not
lived in the state of Ohio for the past five (5) years, a state and
federal check shall be administered. The cost to conduct both a
state and federal check is $50.00.
In
addition to the money and WEBCHECK form, the applicant must also bring
their driver's license.
As
the applicant, it is very important to have the WEBCHECK administered,
since a hearing will not be held until the results of the WEBCHECK
have been received by the Probate Court.
