Why did this location appear on my applicant's background check?

An address history trace is performed using the applicant's personal identifiers, including name, date of birth, phone number, and Social Security Number when provided. This information is drawn from various public and proprietary sources. The address history trace helps identify the counties where an applicant has resided or been associated based on the identifiers provided.


It is important to note that the Address History Trace report is intended solely as a resource for identifying jurisdictions to search and should not be used to adversely affect employment or volunteer prospects. If the applicant wishes to obtain a thorough understanding of their credit history, they can acquire copies of their credit reports from all three credit bureaus at www.freecreditreport.com. Additionally, county searches may be conducted as part of the package ordered by your company.
