How will they do the criminal background checks when some nations will not allow access to that information?

Exactly!  I figure if the country has a person who committed murder or drug or gang crimes, why would they tell the US about it on enquiry with a background check?  They will be glad to be rid of the problem person from their society.

Go to your state local police station, they can do a search and give you enough information under the Information Freedom Act to let you know something about the person. Plus what folks don't seem to realize is that once you're a criminal you've pretty much lost all or most of your rights. In other words you're fair game.

if this is for the USA.... you can get this from the uscis.gov site, but they should have made you an appointment to get this done....USCIS has opened 84 freestanding fingerprint sites (ASCs) and 46 sites located in existing USCIS offices. USCIS now employs a system where fingerprints are taken and submitted electronically to the FBI. By using electronic fingerprint technology, USCIS has significantly reduced processing times for criminal background checks.\n\nif this is not for the US....call your embassy and ask them... they would know the best place.... because you need to know what excactly you need to have done...

In the UK, background checks include what you have mentioned - Criminal records, Employment records, Tax returns, also checks with DSS and Local police Day book (reports/complaints by members of the community).\nThey cannot check Bank transactions without a court order.\nThey cannot check your home life.\n\nYou are right in telling him not falsify his employment status, it's too easily checked, either via DSS, or if not, the question then asked is "How did you live without money?" - these can lead to even more questions.\n\nGaping gaps in employment need not work against him, depending on what he was doing during those times.\n\nRemember - people are naturally trusting so will only start 'deep' questions if given a reason to.

That all depends on the public records you want. Most are not available online.

You should contact your local police department if you believe an individual is connected to crime. I am not aware if civilians can just look up criminal records for individuals.\n\nYou'll probably want to look into companies that can do background checks. Google brings up many pages about background checks. Here is a link to a search.\n\nhttp://www.google.com/search?q=background+checks&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official

it is not an automatic bar. there are no questions on criminal convictions on the application. it is up to the state department to issue or deny the passport. further details can be found at http://travel.state.gov. also might want to make sure any probation or parole terms permit you to travel out of the country. good luck.

More important than the key codes is the record of who gets them and when.  This is done to prevent possible criminal activity.

that's what happens when you go to prison. I would say lie to them. Most companies don't do background checks, unless you are dealing with a lot of money. look at it this way, if you tell the truth, nothing bad happens, you just don't get the job, but if you lie, nothing bad happens, you just have a little better chance of getting a job. I would suggest you move to New Mexico, Arizona or Texas, they hire alot of illegal aliens, and most companies here don't do background checks. I would also suggest you go to a schoolof some kind, most employers would look around it if you have some education under your belt.

Chances are pretty good that if anything's on there, you already know about it.  The National Crime Information Center (NCIC), operated by the FBI, serves as a "pointer" or index-like system for law enforcement agencies on a national basis.  It holds information on persons who are subject to protective orders, wanted, or missing, persons who are considered as threats to protectees of the US Secret Service, along with stolen property and vehicles.\n\nNCIC is incorrectly listed in Wikipedia as maintaining criminal history information, vehicle registration information and drivers license information.  It does not, as those are state issues, maintained by states and available through the National Law Enforcement Telecomunications System (NLETS).\n\nSo if you're wanted by the police, I'd suspect you already know that.  If you've got a protective order issued against you, I'd suspect you'd also know that.  If you're missing, you'd know that and if you've ever threatened a Secret Service protectee, I imagine the Secret Service dropped by to have a chat with you already.  \n\nNow, if what you really want to know is what's on your criminal history, you need to take that up with the state(s) in which you have committed crimes.  I can't imagine there's a state in the union that does not have a process for you to review your criminal history and you can probably find out what it is by checking with your state's Department of Justice or whatever they call it where you live.

What kind of background check? MIlitary? Financial? Criminal? In Oklahoma where I am you can do a criminal background check online using the Oklahoma distirct court records...so that's what I use for criminal checks,but it doesn't apply to records they may have in other states.

u have to pay to get that information but employers get it through a nationwide search. some just go by what u tell them. employers pay a fee when they do criminal record checks worldwide. but if u want to pay for that info. all u have to do is go to website that tell u about a background check. when i did it i had to pay 49.00 dollars and that was one thing that came up employment background

You can get your criminal history checked by the CRB  by contacting you local police station and asking for an enhanced disclosure check to be done. There is a small fee but i don't think there is a website that will have this information on.

That's a difficult task as it depends on each State's laws.  A lot of sites ask you pay but the information is not always accurate because of too many name matches and they will use free sites to access information.  I found this site once and thought it to be pretty general and had a list for many States\n\nhttp://www.crimcheck.com/freerecords.htm

Sorry,there are no free background checks.Because it requires identification and protection of personal information.

Theoretically, the SS administration has the records. However, they may not keep the details that long.\n\nNot to be harsh, but it's reasonable to expect a person to know where they've worked.

I read in an article that there is a data base that employers can use.  It is not set up to handle the volume of requests and verifications necessary, however.  It has been essentially used on a trial basis.  The Immigration Department maintains it and processes requests.
