A Level 2 background check is more in-depth than a standard background check. When an employer requests a Level 2 background check, it is usually due to the sensitive nature of information that the company handles, which can include such information as Social Security numbers, financial records and credit card information. The financial services industry, for example, requires all applicants to submit to a Level 2 background check, during which an applicant is fingerprinted, the fingerprints are then sent to state law enforcement and the FBI for comparison with a nationwide database of records. You may also be asked to submit to a Level 2 background check if applying for a state professional license or volunteering with a public organization. Likewise, those who have contact with minors, such as teachers or publicly funded tutors, are often required by state law to submit to Level 2 background checks, where their information is run against local police records and sex offender registries.
Since state laws vary, for information on the laws concerning background checks in your state, contact your state's department of state.
