What Is An FBI Background Check?
Also known as a "Rap Sheet", an FBI Background Check includes a summary of an individual's criminal history. The information in this report is collected by federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies. Although any company may require a Background Check as an employment condition, only you can request a copy of your criminal history from the FBI.
Many people are curious if they can complete a Background Check Online. Although the FBI's online process still requires you to be fingerprinted in person, RTP Mobile Fingerprinting can provide you with online results via email after you complete the process.
