    Stepparent adoption background checks (criminal background check and child abuse clearance) have to be done through a licensed New Jersey adoption agency. Any licensed NJ adoption agency can do the background checks.

    Location of agency is immaterial as everything is done by email, phone, fax. The stepparent (and any other adult living in the same premises) will need to be fingerprinted for criminal background check and child abuse clearance.

    I highly recommend A Loving Choice in Shrewsbury. I am a little biased because they were my adoption agency for my daughter, but I send clients there all the time for background checks and home studies in connection with second parent and step-parent adoptions. They are truly excellent.
