Frequently Asked Questions
Questions about our US State Background Checks services? You’ve come to the right place.
1.How will I receive the state background check results?
Results will be sent physically sent to you.
If you are also requesting apostilles or document translation services, the final documents will be physically sent to you upon completion.
2.How do you protect my personal information?
Security and privacy is our topmost priority. Sensitive personal information is only captured when necessary, is stored in encrypted form, and is destroyed upon completion of services.
Additionally, only select personnel have access to sensitive personal information, and our access systems enforce highly secure passwords and multi-factor authentication.
3.What states can you obtain background checks from?
We can obtain background checks from all 50 states. Some states (like Arizona) have specific nuances, which we can also support.
4.Can you handle extra steps like notaries, signatures, etc.?
Yes, we’ll directly handle or provide step-by-step guidance on any state-specific requirements for obtaining background checks. This includes things like:
- Coordinating online notary appointments
- Physical or electronic signature requirements
- Payment by check or money order
- …and more.
5.Can you also obtain apostilles for these documents?
Yes, we ensure that the documents provided by the agency meet the proper signature and certification requirements for requesting apostilles.
We also offer apostille services to obtain them for you.
6.What information does a state background check include?
It may include criminal records, arrest records, convictions, warrants, court proceedings, and sometimes sex offender registry data—depending on the state’s reporting laws.
7.What do I need to provide to request a background check?
You need the full legal name, date of birth, and consent of the individual being screened. Some states may also require a Social Security number or fingerprinting, depending on what the background check is being used for.
8.Are state background checks the same as national background checks?
No, a state background check only covers records within one specific state. For the most comprehensive coverage, a national or FBI background check is recommended in addition to any state-specific requests.
9.Will dismissed or sealed records show up?
This depends on state laws. Some states may show dismissed charges, while others exclude sealed or expunged records from standard checks.
10.Can individuals request their own background check?
Yes, individuals can request a copy of their own background check (including through an agency like us) for personal review, visa applications, employment, or expungement purposes.
11.How do you send physical documents?
International shipments are sent via DHL, FedEx, or UPS with tracking. Domestic shipments within the United States are mailed via USPS Priority with tracking.
