Why Check Yourself

The best time to find a problem is before it finds you

Roughly one in four background reports contains an error or outdated entry, and most people only discover it after a job offer goes quiet. A personal background check puts you back in control.

Whether you're entering the job market, applying for housing, or just want peace of mind, you'll know exactly what's on the record — and have time to correct anything that's wrong.

FAQ

Personal background check questions

Yes — running a background check on yourself is completely legal and a smart move before a job search or rental application. You'll see the same categories of information employers and landlords see, and you can address surprises before they cost you an opportunity.
Depending on the searches you order: criminal records from national, state, and federal databases, sex offender registry status, address history, name variations, and public records such as liens, judgments, and civil filings.
Only with a permissible purpose under the FCRA — such as employment, tenant screening, or another legally recognized reason — and with the subject's written consent where required. Consumer reports can't be ordered out of personal curiosity. If you're an employer or landlord, see our employment and tenant screening solutions.
You have the right under the FCRA to dispute inaccurate information with the reporting agency, which must investigate — typically within 30 days. Finding errors on a self-check first gives you time to correct them before an employer or landlord ever sees them.
A basic person search starts at $4.57, a national criminal database search is $17.21, and the comprehensive Package Basic is $26.99. Most results return within minutes of identity verification.
