That is one of the purposes of the Fair credit report Act (FCRA) which enables you the opportunity to dispute any errors in your background check.

Employers must follow FCRA guidelines when making an employment hiring/firing decision based on a background check.

Under federal law they are required to do the following:

  1. Obtain a signed authorization release from you
  2. Provide you a pre-adverse action letter
  3. Provide you a decline letter stating the reasons for their disqualification and how to dispute the findings
  4. Provide you copy of your report along with an FCRA summary of your rights
