Fingerprinting for Colorado Requirements

Certifix provides professional fingerprinting services for individuals who need to meet Colorado background check, licensing, or employment requirements. Since Colorado uses approved vendors such as IdentoGO and Colorado Fingerprinting for processing, we offer a convenient Fingerprint Card (FD-258) service that allows you to submit your application by mail.

We capture your fingerprints digitally using Live Scan equipment, print them onto an official FD-258 fingerprint card, and mail the completed card directly to you so you can submit it to the appropriate Colorado vendor with your application.
