How Far Back Does My Background Check Go?

Modified on Fri, 15 May at 7:59 AM

Background checks cover as far back as is legally reportable, which means the timeframe may vary from applicant to applicant. The length and depth of your report is determined by applicable federal, state, and local laws governing what information can be reported and for how long.


Please Note: Because reporting requirements vary by jurisdiction and individual circumstances, Bchex is unable to provide a specific timeframe that applies to every applicant.
