FAQs
How long do background checks take?
Our background checks can be completed in as little as a few minutes or a day. However, results typically can take an average of 3 business days. In more complex cases, the process may take longer. Rest assured, we will keep you informed with real-time updates every step of the way, giving you the peace of mind you deserve.
Where does your background check data come from?
We aggregate data from thousands of official, nationwide databases, including federal, state, and county court registries, public records, national criminal databases, and professional licensing boards. By pulling from authoritative primary sources, we deliver comprehensive and up-to-date reports you can trust.
What happens if a background check returns negative results?
If a report contains information that may lead you to make an adverse decision (such as declining an applicant), federal law requires a specific multi-step notification process. To make this easy, we provide access to a Resource & Template Library complete with sample Pre-Adverse and Final Adverse Action notices, along with mandatory candidate rights disclosures, to help your team stay organized and compliant.
Do I need permission before running a background check on someone?
Yes, if you are using background checks for employment, housing, or official screening purposes. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), you must provide a clear, standalone disclosure to the applicant and obtain their written consent before running a report.
