Criminal Background Check Requirements

    Fingerprints

    • The first step in a criminal background check is to have fingerprints run. Fingerprints can be taken at local law enforcement agencies. The fingerprint card must then be sent to the FBI along with $18 and a letter requesting the report for personal review.

    Felonies

    • Each respective entity will have specific requirements pertaining to felonies and misdemeanors, but will check that record. For example, to register as a mortgage loan broker, your record must be free from all felony and misdemeanor convictions involving fraud within the previous five-year period.

    FBI

    • The Federal Bureau of Investigation runs the criminal background check. The FBI is chosen for this responsibility as its mission is to uphold federal law through investigation. In the instance that a background check is run on a customer who wants to purchase a gun, the FBI has an instant check department: The National Instant Criminal Background Check System. This system does not require fingerprints, but customers cannot have a criminal record.
