Background check questions
    #21465418 - 03/27/15 12:39 PM (9 years, 1 month ago)

So I have three class A special felonies (highest felonies you can get) and one class B special felony.

I also have a handful of misdemeanor convictions.

Now I just started seeing a girl and she was concerned about my criminal record and she ran a background check. It cost her $30. She wabred a second opinion and paid another site $30 again and got the same results.

Now an employer a couple years ago one day asked me about the misdemeanor warrant I have in Arizona and I explained but he never saw all those felonies and neither did the two background checks my gf ran.

Does this mean that employer's and such can't find these for whatever reason it may be?

Did I get lucky or what's going on?

Why should I refund her $60? She did this on her own after me telling her all of my past legal troubles. She just wanted to make sure there was nothing else and come to find out all the bad stuff never even showed up.

I have had a warrant out for my arrest for five years I just found out about and I honestly don't think my job even did the background check.


Then when I got promoted I was told they had to do a deeper background check. They asked if theyd find anything. As I shit myself thinking i was Fucked I said no.

That was 4 months ago and I havent heard anything.

If your chicks doing background checks on you she's got some crazy in there. And it sounds like your jobs just lazy and didn't bother to check. All felonies show up

Definitely not.  For a background check to be effective, they need to know what states you have lived in.  Often felonies from other states don't follow you around on background checks unless you tell them that you used to live there.

The reason is that the public records have names and locations, but not social security numbers.  There are a lot of people with the same name in the USA.

Don't the companies just run your SSN considering you have to give it to them anyways to get hired? For most main stream jobs anyways

That doesn't help though - the background check companies rely on public records, and SSN's aren't in the public records.  They have to match the names.  A name only match usually gives a ton of matches if they search through the whole country, so they need to narrow the search with location info.

It is possible that using an alternate spelling on a middle name would evade background checks, assuming HR doesn't notice.

This makes sense.


I wonder if my situation has gone this long without having to deal with it. I literally just found out about 6 months ago. It took the cop almost 3 months to file the report. Over maybe a pinch of herb. They want to give me a felony for not even 0.5 grams of shitty weed.

and it probably helped in my favor that the cop put down the wrong birthday for me.

Then they were doing state background checks (referred to as BCI most of the time). In this case everything in that state will show up. Depending on the state this may or may not include juvenile history. If it was for military or as an educator (as in my case) or something along those lines, they run an FBI check which covers the entire country.

Alan Rockefeller is referring to background checks done by third parties, which aren't always so reliable for the person doing the check.
